Now that the president’s cognitive issues are undeniable and out in the open, reporters need to explain why they hadn’t covered this earlier.

Its members are “second-guessing some of their reporting decisions” regarding the president’s age and “looking at their subject with fresh eyes,” Puck’s Dylan Byers reports.
The “soul-searching,” as Byers puts it, comes after the release of special counsel Robert Hur’s report, which characterized Biden as a dotard, and the White House asserting in response that the president is not, in fact, a dotard.
