Even after his disastrously doddering debate performance Thursday night, President Joe Biden still has his fans on public television. Friday’s edition of Amanpour & Co., which airs originally on CNN International, stitched together various thin defenses of the Biden presidency, while host Christiane Amanpour’s anti-Trump partisanship was even more ham-handed than usual.
The original version of Amanpour airs on CNN International and the producers there actually broke into the hour-long coverage for 20-something minutes of a live Biden campaign rally in North Carolina.
Notice how Amanpour tried to counteract Biden’s undeniably pathetic debate performance in every line from her introduction onward, while hailing CNN’s hopelessly slanted media fact-checks as utter truth after Biden threw a big post-debate hint in the media’s direction.
