In reply to the discussion: Very disappointed to see the narrative here about the interview. [View all]Drunken Irishman
(34,857 posts)23. Okay.
... bias that was clear with the constant asking of the same question.
She continued to read the statement "start off with the presumption ... " as if Joe was saying "start then end with the presumption ..." and that's not what Biden said.
It was damn near embarrassing that Mika didn't get the fact that believe women was the start of the matter not the end of it.
This is text book confirmation bias.
Also
The overt push into false equivalency between Biden and Kav was gob smacking, Biden is inviting and investigation Kav did not.
She did not do well and I like her IE the focus.
Show me where you said anything about how Biden did in the interview. You only mentioned he invited an investigation but none of your post tells me how Biden handled the interview. Your post doesn't mention whether he credibly denied the allegations. Your post doesn't even mention whether he gave good answers to those questions.
Reading your post gives me no insight into how Biden actually handled the interview.

Yes and if the narrative that Mika did a poor job & not Biden clearing the air, we lose.

It seems apparent you did not watch the interview. Biden did well despite Mike going way overboard

Joe's response was clear and well-presented. I haven't seen anybody say or imply otherwise here.
