This week’s Liberal Media Scream features CBS admitting, with just six weeks to go in President Joe Biden’s administration, that he and his aides have been lying about his cognitive decline and that the media helped cover it up.

And having known about it for months or longer, now, the media are promising to call out health problems when they see them, a not-so-subtle warning to President-elect Donald Trump.

“We should have much more forcefully questioned whether he was fit for office for another four years,” CBS correspondent Jan Crawford said on Face the Nation.

From Sunday’s Face the Nation on CBS, with Major Garrett serving as the fill-in host:

MAJOR GARRETT: One of the other things we also do in the year-end correspondents’ table is dig into what was undercovered or underreported. Jan?

JAN CRAWFORD: Um, undercovered or underreported. That would be, to me, Joe Biden’s obvious cognitive decline that became undeniable in the televised debate.

GARRETT: At the presidential debate with Donald Trump.

CRAWFORD: Unquestioned. And, you know, it’s starting to emerge now that his advisers kind of managed his limitations. It’s been reported in the Wall Street Journal, for four years. And yet he insisted that he could still run for president. We should have much more forcefully questioned whether he was fit for office for another four years, which could have led to a primary for the Democrats. It could have changed the scope of the entire election. Yet still, incredibly, we read in the Washington Post that his advisers are saying that he regrets that he dropped out of the race. You know, that he thinks he could have beaten Trump. And I think that is either delusional, or they’re gaslighting.

ROBERT COSTA: President Biden has said repeatedly he was sick during the debate, June 27 in Atlanta, and he’s always been fine and he leaves fine. That is his position, the position of many of his top aides as well, even though there is that reporting.

Brent Baker, the Steven P.J. Wood senior fellow and vice president for research and publications at the Media Research Center, explains our pick: “Too bad that as an on-air reporter for CBS, Crawford couldn’t have done something to get CBS to give airtime to the recent Wall Street Journal story documenting Biden’s many years of cognitive inabilities. Yet Costa, in parroting the White House talking points, demonstrated his own complicity, like virtually all of the Washington press corps, in advancing the White House’s big lie.”
