The media needs to be held to a higher standard or it is only going to deepen the already massive divide in that country. Their job is supposed to be reporting what is going on in the world around them, not trying to control or suppress it. I really hope the Biden administration restores the FCC fairness doctrine in some form or another, even if it won’t eliminate the biases of the major news networks at least they’ll only be able to report facts.

This isn't right, you are saying the reporter should have stopped doing his job to feed a troll who isn't interested in a rational discussion? That is the both sides very tactic that brought us to this point.
Might as well have Joe come out of his parents basement to argue with a PhD in Climate science.
