Maybe the media went too far this time.
Opinion by Jennifer Rubin: The widespread media condemnation of a shoddy front-page Wall Street Journal article about President Biden “slipping” with age suggests we may have reached a journalistic inflection point. https://t.co/fUcljiTqt1

It is rare for @Poynter to weigh in on how bad a news story was, but the @WSJ hit piece on Biden was that bad. https://t.co/H86p4eq0g4

Wow: A spokesperson for The Journal told me that the Rupert Murdoch-owned newspaper, which is under the stewardship of newish editor Emma Tucker, "stands by its reporting." If Tucker is comfortable with such shoddy journalism, it is worrisome.

Biden’s team seethes over another age piece — and sours on The Journal https://t.co/WmqHJR11Js

I was there & went on record to @WSJ w/ opposite recollection that's not quoted in the story. Bottom line: Anonymous Republican sources didn't raise these issues in real time, day after, or week after. Trying to do so now reeks of political hit job.https://t.co/PBNdBu6gYr

The White House is firing back against a WSJ report that Biden "appears slower" and "has both good moments and bad ones" in meetings with congressional leaders. https://t.co/kY3GNvjbKq
