“We are not amused!”

How dare a local Philadelphia CBS affiliate ask Joe Biden anything but softball questions?
How dare they?

Naturally, the station has been put on the campaign blacklist.
Hmmm…
With all the talk about media bias, I think outlets like this should be singled out for praise.
I’m also wondering whether pliant news outlets that inevitably kowtow to pressure (by avoiding tough questions) are displaying bias in the usual sense of the word.
Is fear-based bias the real thing?
Or is it insincere?
