Nets: Shouldn't We Focus on Biden's 'Incremental' Progress on Inflation?

[See NewsBusters for more.] The networks are still doing their best to protect Joe Biden. Devastating new inflation numbers arrived on Wednesday, showing the rate soar to 9.1 percent, a 41 year high. And while the networks all covered that new number for 23 minutes and four seconds on Wednesday night and Thursday morning, they allowed just a scant 85 seconds on the President’s responsibility. Even when Biden’s name came up, it was often defensive. Today co-host Savannah Guthrie on Thursday wondered if we should focus on the “incremental progress”  Biden has made: "The administration said that 9.1 percent figure obviously is stunning, but gas prices have fallen 40 cents in the past month. That's true. Are these numbers in any way not reflecting this incremental progress that, say, the White House is pointing to?"
