In fact, he literally said that on Cuomo tonight. He was talking about something nefarious the GOP was doing (can’t remember exactly what it was now) and said “well, both sides do it”. NO! If the GOP is caught taking bribes (for example) 100,000 times and a DEM is caught 1 time, that’s not the same as “both sides do it”. But that is how so many in the media frame it.

Yes, you can find examples of bad behavior on both sides, but there is a difference between a group evangelism of bad behavior and an occasional bad apple.

and obvious. That said, I don't think Gregory (in the few times I've seen him on CNN) has particularly polished his dimming "star." I think he's caught a big case of "bothsiderism"--again in the few times I've seen him

Never had an original thought of his own. The networks love that.
