WATCH: Reporters lob love letters at Biden event


The following is a news analysis.

It is relatively rare when former Vice President Joe Biden takes reporter questions. Today, he took several at an event in Delaware.

With all of the questions that could be asked, the chosen reporters generally lobbed love notes in the direction of Biden, furthering anti-Trump narratives and teeing up opportunities for Biden to weigh in on them.

The first question was along the lines of “What does the Atlantic’s (disputed) story about Trump insulting the military say about Trump’s soul?”

That was followed by questions such as: “What would you say to Trump for not rejecting Q conspiracy theory?”

Another reporter declared that wearing masks saves lives and that Trump is rejecting the science.. “so are you worried that Trump is endangering lives by encouraging people not to wear masks?”

A reporter also asked if Biden had been tested for coronavirus. When Biden said he had been, no reporter asked what the results were.
