When Someone Tries to Kill You, There are NOT Two Sides

Someone needs to remind the MSM and have them call out the RW apologists they have on who use this argument.

That's how you frame it... msg to Katy Tur when dealing with Erik Erickson and their ilk...

me that so many journalists just "move on" without correcting the lies of their guest or by letting another guest give a rebuttal. Katy Tur is not the only one who does this among both new and seasoned news anchors.

There are hosts I've observed push back, Nichole Wallace, Joy Reid, Stephanie Ruhle and Ali Velshi. This is not a complete list and I do not watch all the shows.
