Remember when Trump was president and liberals would constantly accuse FOX News of being state-run media?
They may want to look at what the liberal Washington Post just did.
The Post had a tweet that was mildly critical of Joe Biden. Then Jen Psaki wrote a tweet complaining about it and POOF! it was deleted and changed.
They sure know how to speak truth to power, don’t they?
FOX News reports:
Washington Post deletes tweet saying Biden going to funerals might not be ‘best use of his time’
The Washington Post faced backlash Saturday for a Twitter message promoting a story about President Biden frequently attending funerals since taking office.
The story was headlined “Biden, funerals and a bygone era.”
The tweet and story appeared ahead of Biden’s attendance Saturday at a funeral service in Nevada for former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who died Dec. 28 at age 82.
It was the seventh funeral Biden has attended since becoming president, the Post noted.
“Biden, who heads to Sen. Marry M. Reid’s memorial Saturday – his seventh as president – uses funerals to honor his friendships and make a point about bipartisanship,” the original Post tweet said.
“Not everyone thinks it’s the best use of his time,” the message added.
Here’s Jen Psaki’s complaint:
I will wait here for the apparent growing chorus referenced here who are opposed (that is right opposed according to this tweet) to a @POTUS who honors the lives of those lost, with empathy and grace. https://t.co/MrhLyIAAHa

And here’s the Washington Post behaving like a good little lap dog.
We’ve deleted a tweet that inaccurately represented the scope of the story.

While I thought the initial Tweet was bad, the Washington Post retracting an opinion because Jen Psaki told them to is a very bad look.#statemedia https://t.co/HJdFcY3Cse

Do you think the Washington Post would have done this under Trump?
Not a chance.
