MAJOR GARRETT: One of the other things we also do in the year end correspondents’ table is dig into what was undercovered or underreported. Jan?

JAN CRAWFORD: Um- undercovered or underreported. That would be, to me, Joe Biden's obvious cognitive decline that became undeniable in the televised debate.

GARRETT: At the presidential debate with Donald Trump.

CRAWFORD: Unquestioned. And, you know, it's starting to emerge now that his advisers kind of managed his limitations, it's been reported in The Wall Street Journal, for four years. And yet he insisted that he could still run for president. We should have much more forcefully questioned whether he was fit for office for another four years, which could have led to a primary for the Democrats. It could have changed the- the- the scope of the entire election. Yet still, incredibly, we read in The Washington Post that his advisers are saying that he regrets that he dropped out of the race. You know, that he thinks he could have beaten Trump. And I think that is either delusional, or they’re gaslighting…

ROBERT COSTA: President Biden has said repeatedly he was sick during the debate, June 27th in Atlanta, and he's always been fine and he leaves fine. That is his position, the position of many of his top aides as well, even though there is that reporting.
