Let us not forget the climate that Trump created for himself. Much of that constant negative coverage was more about his antics and absurdities, and at some point, it became impossible for him to do/say much of anything without completely deserved backlash.
With that said, I can’t claim there is no media bias re: Biden, but we should not pretend that the circumstances are even close to similar.

That only happened because conservatives gave up trying to please a hostile audience. Reagan was Satan incarnate, until 20 years later, when he was a voice of reason compared to Dubya. Rinse and repeat.

Nobody cares about your conservative victomhood complex. If your leaders aren't mature enough to do their job without throwing a temper tantrum whenever someone says something mean about them, then sit the fuck down and let the adults handle it.

Yes but the media was biased before Trump, it just became glaringly obvious during his administration because they were profiting off of his antics. Their viewership has plummeted post Trump and you can see them grasping at anything to sensationalize and garner more views.

This reminds of the old quip about the founding of Fox News. Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch claimed they had found an untapped niche market in American broadcasting, "Half the country".
So, take your own advice and stop promoting this false narrative that there's negative Biden coverage anywhere near the amount that Trump had. It's absolutely obvious that's not true.
