Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank joined CNN on Monday to discuss his latest op-ed in which he makes claims that the media treats Joe Biden worse than they treat former President Trump.
"In the last four months, Biden has been at where Donald Trump was or lower than where Donald Trump is in terms of media sentiment," Milbank explained.

"We are as negative as a collective media on Joe Biden, if not more so, than we were to Donald Trump at a time when he was trying to overthrow democracy," Milbank continued. "I think that's a tremendous indictment of our whole industry."
Milbank says that left-wing media has actually been "tough" on Biden when many would have believed them to give the Democratic President positive coverage.
Milbank explained to the CNN host that unlike Trump having right-wing media outlets provide loyal positive coverage, Biden allegedly doesn't have the same luxury from left-wing publications.
According to the columnist, he came to his conclusion after allegedly analyzing a plethora of media outlets ranging from Breitbart News to CNN and their negative coverage of Biden compared to their negative coverage of Trump.
