New pod: @atrupar.bsky.social and I take apart that sleazy WSJ hit piece on Biden's age. Another awful thing about this: Other news orgs elevated the issue by treating the story itself as a news hook. That's ridiculous.
Warning, lots of ranting in this one!

"some participants struggled to hear him" (extreme hearing loss is linked to aging) "He read from notes" (visual acuity is not associated w/ aging) "paused for extended periods" (Republicans can't conceive piping down & listening to others) "sometimes closed his eyes" (associated w/ listening)

Also on this pod: The usual excuse for constantly covering the politics of Biden's age (polls show concern about it) is an evasion. Instead, why not inform readers on whether his age *actually is or is not a problem* for his handling of the office?
