Dear President Biden and your entire staff: Lester Holt is NOT your friend

Add Savannah Guthrie to that.

Holt's questions were phrased in ways that suggested a bias against Bident. He dwelt on the negative. The chyrons tend to be unhelpful, dwelling on the negative.

Kind of as bad as Fox, even if not nearly so overt.

Sparkly and I listened to the interview tonight. I am still incensed.

I told my husband I no longer wanted to watch him anymore. ABC with David Muir is so much better. My husband is visiting his mother out of town and she told him she no longer watches NBC nightly news because it is Fox lite.
