CNN admits something unbelievably embarrassing:
Many in media failed to report more on Biden’s cognitive issues because they feared “blowback…from the White House and Democrats,” or, worse: "age stories angered the White House (and the liberal Twittersphere) the most.”

If you won’t report major stories about the most powerful people in the country, all because you’re afraid of provoking anger from the WH, Democrats, or “the liberal Twittersphere,” you are many things.
“Journalist” is not one of them. It’s so pathetic:

That said, I 100% believe that a desperate desire to avoid angering the WH, Democrats, and “the liberal Twittersphere” is absolutely the main motivation for most people who work in corporate media.
Why don’t they just go work for the WH or the Democratic Party?
