The cognitive decline of President Joe Biden has become so apparent that even the most die-hard supporters and establishment media types can no longer pretend it’s all in the conservative imagination. The mainstream media, often criticized for its reluctance to confront uncomfortable truths, has, for far too long, closed its eyes—perhaps too busy playing patty-cake with the administration. But the New York Post, in its latest editorial, holds these journalism giants to account for their glaring negligence.
The New York Post took to their editorial board to drop the hammer on journalists who have turned a blind eye to Biden’s very real cognitive struggles. Instead of acting as watchdogs, alerting the public to the concerning signs, they instead helped gaslight the American people. The staggering lack of skepticism from these so-called journalists is akin to a bad reality TV show twist—watching them fail to acknowledge the emperor has no clothes is painful yet oddly entertaining. The Post asserted that these media outlets neglected their duty, choosing complicity over accountability, as the president’s capabilities crumbled.

For years, surveys have shown that a significant number of Americans believe Biden’s age and health disqualify him from performing his duties effectively. Still, reporters opted to play ostrich, sticking their heads in the sand rather than posing an uncomfortable question. The narrative that Biden was some vigorous, youthful leader became a badge of honor for those wanting desperately to refute any hint of weakness. The Post pointed out that discussing Biden’s health issues was dismissed as mere right-wing paranoia, further showcasing the denial prevalent within many mainstream circles.
Things shifted dramatically during Biden’s first debate with Donald Trump, where the cognitive decline became painfully obvious. This spectacle was a moment when the façade crumbled, and even die-hard media loyalists found it difficult to sweep Biden’s struggles under the rug. The Post described how journalists who had obediently parroted Team Biden’s talking points suddenly had their hands tied. Watching the truth spill out during that debate could only be likened to watching a slow-motion train wreck—excruciating yet impossible to look away from.
In a flourish of righteous indignation, the Post’s editorial board declared that it’s far too late for these journalists to save face. Their credibility, once a sheen of polished integrity, has now been reduced to tatters. The notion that they can now come clean about what everyone has obviously seen for years is laughable. The Post firmly believes that any journalist who hid, ignored, or outright twisted the narrative of Biden’s cognitive struggles should wear that shame forever, adding yet another layer to the growing skepticism of mainstream media.
