In the latest example of double standards in the world of liberal media bias, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt used his one-on-one interview on Monday with Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio to boast of the “broad criticism of that Saturday debate performance” and calls that he’s “MarcoRobot” despite expressing concern to Hillary Clinton on January 29 about any critiques leveled her way.

Leading into the Rubio interview, Holt told viewers that the Florida senator has been “brushing off broad criticism of that Saturday debate performance when he was called out for repeating the same talking point about President Obama four times in the span of a few minutes.”
