‘It’s Batsh*t Crazy’: Mark Halperin Teams Up With Corporate Media Reporter To Rip Their Industry’s Liberal ‘Bias’

Journalist Mark Halperin joined Axios’ Trump White House reporter Marc Caputo on Tuesday in criticizing what they described as the media’s left-wing bias.

Caputo, on Halperin’s “2WAY TONIGHT,” said former President Joe Biden’s former White House press secretary Jen Psaki joining MSNBC after leaving her government role exemplified the “utterly broken” nature of modern corporate media. Halperin agreed, adding other examples of the media being biased in favor of Democrats.

“Jen Psaki’s hiring by MSNBC was one of the many examples of how utterly broken the Acela media industrial complex is,” Caputo said. “For the first time in United States history, a sitting president seeking reelection had his press secretary go and work for a major media enterprise and anchor a show. And no one fucking said anything about how irregular, how newsworthy, how out of line that was.”

“And we have hundreds — I’ve seen scores — of media writers … these people couldn’t lift a finger to type a letter about how out of line, how irregular that was and what it represented,” he continued. “So when we come to our current moment, Jen Psaki, MSNBC represents a very particular inflection point, as does the Biden presidency, in the way in which the press covered it, that leads us to where we are today.”

Halperin responded “Amen, brother” before underscoring Caputo’s criticism of media writers.
