Nearly 700 stories were published by CNN about the accusations against Bret Kavanaugh in the 24 days following Ford's accusations, while CNN just published their first story on Tara Reide's accusations against Joe Biden... But there's no such thing as liberal media bias.

Biden has done 3 interviews on CNN since the allegations were made, but nobody bothered to ask him about the allegations... But there's no such thing as liberal media bias.


Biden has done 7 other TV interviews with other networks and in none of those was Biden asked about the allegations... But there's no such thing as liberal media bias.


LMAO

What is most concerning imo is that the media is shielding Biden since nobody is asking him about the accusations! They know he will give some incoherent rambling so they are throwing him as many softball pitches for him to hit.....

It is embarrassing.
 
7) The Correlation/Causation Fallacy
If two things appear to be correlated, this doesn't necessarily indicate that one of those things irrefutably caused the other thing. This might seem like an obvious fallacy to spot, but it can be challenging to catch in practice -- particularly when you really want to find a correlation between two points of data to prove your point.

15 Common Logical Fallacies and How to Spot Them

Doh! One of these guys required a Senate confirmation vote to sit on the USSC. His confirmation relied on a GOP majority. The other guy spent 8 years as Vice POTUS and currently wrapped up the DEM nomination to face off against Trump in November.

Sometimes people use fallacies to support their arguments. Their reasons can lie in ignorance, a lack of self-awareness, partisanship or a combination of factors.

With Covid19 in the air, you might want to bone up on an Introductory Philosophy course. I recommend Introduction to Logic.

Introduction to Logic is a proven textbook that has been honed through the collaborative efforts of many scholars over the last five decades. Its scrupulous attention to detail and precision in exposition and explanation is matched by the greatest accuracy in all associated detail. In addition, it continues to capture student interest through its personalized human setting and current examples. The 14th Edition of Introduction to Logic, written by Copi, Cohen & McMahon, is dedicated to the many thousands of students and their teachers - at hundreds of universities in the United States and around the world - who have used its fundamental methods and techniques of correct reasoning in their everyday lives.

Nice evasion, but the fact is, the press went nuts over the dubious claims against Kavanaugh, but are largely silent about the equally dubious but more prevalent claims against Biden

You conflated two different sets of circumstances and attempted to compare them. You lack credibility.

Get back to me when more like kind circumstances occur. For example:

1. If and when Biden awaits the judgment of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the full Senate for a seat on the USSC.
or
2. CryBaby K becomes the presumptive nominee of a major political party in an election for POTUS.

nice attempt to evade, but that makes no sense. We have two public figures who are seeking a higher office. That their different routes to two different offices are patently different means nothing. What counts is that the media is not as interested in smearing Biden as it was in smearing Kavanaugh

You would have understood if you boned up first on fallacies before you responded.

Going forward, especially with your clout, maybe your Federalist Society pals can gin up some media interest in sexual allegations against Biden?

observant posters will recall that I have been skeptical about the claims against Biden-claims of actions that took place years ago, and were not voiced when the alleged malfeasance happened.

This is most certainly the fact.
The media came all over themselves with Kavanaugh's accusers.
Over Binden? Not as much as a peep.

The difference? Conservative excoriated, the liberal all malfeasance and missteps hidden and protected. That's the only difference, and the only one that matter to the 'news' (political propaganda) media. Honestly. Why do we even listen to these people anymore?

I know you for a wide range of reasons, including commentary on CryBaby K. Both men have faced allegations of sexual misconduct from multiple women. So has our current POTUS. These kinds of allegations often surface in a political climate. Rep. Katie Hill resigned last year after nude photos surfaced.

You often reference the prior sex life of Senator Harris. Sex makes for a Hot Topic!

Yep, bu the fact remains, dubious, or blatantly bogus claims about Kavanaugh got all sorts of press. Dubious or even blatantly bogus claims against Biden are not getting much of any coverage

That's the difference that none from the left can defend. They'd just rather continue to lie to themselves and falsely claim there is no media bias, the same way that those who report the news believe they still are reporting the news, then it's little more than politically driven narratives, activism, and political propaganda rather than 'news', the same way those who report in such a manner still falsely consider themselves journalists, when often, they are little more than political hacks, like George Stephanopoulos, for example.

The POTUS and powerful GOP leaders put the kibosh on investigating CryBaby K. Sen. Graham exploded in anger!

what does that have to do with the fact that the media has different standards?

Countless entities comprise the media. Name a family or a person with equal to or greater influence in the media business than the Murdoch family.

you really are getting desperate. You must know that the Kavanaugh accusations-even ones as ridiculous as Swetnik (the one who claimed she-a college woman-attended high school rape parties over ten times until she was raped) and the stuff the creepy porn lawyer purveyed-were given front page coverage for months, while the claims against Biden are hard to find

I don't know anyone who put stock in the Swetnik allegations.

You couldn't think of anyone or a family more influential in the media business than the Murdoch family? Why did that stump you?

What does that have to do with the fact that the claims against Kavanaugh were front and center each night on the news while the ones against Biden received far less attention?

You joking? Or do you really not understand? No one I know of shapes the news more than Fox & Friends.

Fox & Friends marked 207 months as the No. 1 cable news program in its timeslot, with an average of 1.4 million viewers and 279,000 with the 25-54 demo for January.Jan 29, 2019

The channel was created by Australian-American media mogul Rupert Murdoch to appeal to a conservative audience, hiring former Republican Party media consultant and CNBC executive Roger Ailes as its founding CEO. It launched on October 7, 1996, to 17 million cable subscribers.

what does that have to do with the fact that the main stream news-NETWORK NEWS and the biggest papers in the country, gave the Kavanaugh accusers far more time and publicity than the accusations against Biden? You keep diverting and you claim FOX is more influential than ABC, CBS, NBC, the Washington Post, CNN, the New York Times, and USA Today combined?

I am willing to hear the woman out. Biden spent 8 years as VP, and this woman never stepped forward. That alone does not mean she is not telling the truth, but does deserve an answer.

You still remain stumped on naming a person or family in the media industry more influential than the Murdoch family.

All media outlets, major and minor, benefit from the First Amendment. You whine over content you disagree with.

Do want increased regulations that go against your expressed ideology? Did it ever occur to you that CryBaby K merited intense media publicity?
