This is the state of our media.
Bret Baier is being heavily criticized by some on the left and in the media for a Special Report Fox News promo announcing his own investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden.
Aaron Rupar with Vox is the first to post it and called it “Trump Propaganda”:
This is a promo that just aired for one of Fox News' "straight news" shows. Uncut Trump propaganda. pic.twitter.com/4gAWb2OAVv

CNN’s Oliver Darcy, who used to write for The Blaze, says this is “stunning”:
I saw this last night and was stunned that this is how @BretBaier is advertising his program on Fox. https://t.co/S8eEGZt63q

How in the world is this stunning? Can only Trump be investigated for wrongdoing?
There is incredibly suspicious behavior going on with the Bidens, with respect to Ukraine and China, that is very much worthy of investigation. The fact that these ‘reporters’ think investigating Biden is “Trump Propaganda” just shows the pathetic state of our media. Just imagine how many other MSM reporters agree with Rupar and Darcy who just didn’t say anything because they know it would tarnish their reputation.
Here’s a bevy of other leftists accusing Baier of all manner of malpractice, including a couple of hacks at Media Matters:
But tell me more about how the division between Fox's "news" side and opinion side is starker than ever https://t.co/o3MSPrDJQO

Remember days before the 2016 election when this “hard news” show reported that Hillary Clinton was going to be indicted and there was never an investigation? Fox’s news side is a joke. It relies on a totally unearned reputation that Fox PR pushes relentlessly. https://t.co/450i09sJra

Fox News is officially the propaganda machine of the tRump campaign. The Goebbels of ‘news’ shows. https://t.co/3TOc8aWO1z

@BretBaier So, as we thought, you’re not a journalist, just another hack on Fox https://t.co/1gmhParQIb
