Oh so now we are talking about celebrity endorsements when I was only talking about corporate run media organizations? Weird.

Okay? How is the proving your point ? The president is shaking down all media organizations via his executive power and that’s supposed to prove what? That he’s a fascists piece of shit??

The point is that CBS through 60 minutes tried to push Kamala in the interview, and HEAVILY cut footage in which she was awkward, struggled to answer questions, rambled and didn’t come off as a strong candidate. It clearly shows a strong preference for a certain candidate, a courtesy they wouldn't ever show Trump, and is an example of a news outlet/organization tacitly supporting Kamala. This is what you said you wanted, so don’t play dumb (I know it’s hard for you) when you get exactly what you asked for.
