In a passionate segment on The Don Lemon Show, the former CNN anchor criticized the media for fixating on Joe Bidenâs age and cognitive issues while ignoring Donald Trump's performance as president. Lemon urged journalists to stop self-criticism and focus on Trump's actions, claiming they are detrimental to the economy and society. He highlighted that some reporters had, in fact, raised concerns about Biden during appropriate times but now find the media frenzy over his age opportunistic. Lemon's remarks marked a call to action for journalists to redirect their focus on the current administration.
Stop criticizing yourself and stop defining yourself by your critics... focus on the guy who's in office right now that they voted in, their guy who is not doing a great job.
There is a person in the White House now who is tweeting at three in the morning... who is crushing the economy, who is ruining peopleâs lives.
Not all reporters fell down on the jobs because... even before people were discussing it... there were some of us who were in the news media who were not afraid to ask the question.
The current media pile-on is disingenuous and opportunistic.
