The networks and cable channels have been dragged, very slowly to the Tara Reade sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden.

The network that didn’t cover the story at all for a month now says that “the media has been reporting on this extensively.” On Friday's New Day, Dana Bash derided competitor MSNBC, where Biden finally gave an interview on the topic, as a “home team” venue for the Democrat.
