Do U.S. Democratic Media Mute Allegations of Harassment and Sexual Assault by Democratic US Presidential candidate Joe Biden? This serious allegation comes from a podcast released last week by Democratic journalist and women's rights activist Katie Harper, during which she interviewed at length Tara Reid, a former aide in the Biden campaign.

In an interview, Reid strongly attacks the US CNN network, noting that journalist Andersen Cooper, who twice interviewed Biden, did not intentionally ask him about Reid's allegations. A similar charge is directed at NBC broadcaster Chuck Todogam and ABC network broadcaster George Stephanopoulos.   

At the end of the interview, Katie Harper said: "I am both democratic and Tara to this day, but it was difficult to get exposure to the story in non-right media. So I decided to publish the interview on the assault. After the interview, a senator who was talking to me at the time and verified that there was such an event, And that Reed told him things right after what happened. "   

Speaking to US Fox News, Reid said: "I think it is shocking that time is passing and Biden is continuing his campaign for president and the media just doesn't ask him about the charges against him. Would they have done the same against Donald Trump? Would they have acted like Brett Cavanaugh? I completely lost confidence in Andersen Cooper's news program, he has a clear bias. "

Despite the difficulty of many U.S. media outlets to address the issue, the evidence of the incident is beginning to accumulate and become a problem for the Democratic candidate. One of the evidence is a phone call made by Reed's mother with broadcaster Larry King in 1993, during which the alleged sexual harassment incident occurred, during which she told of "problems Having her daughter with a prominent senator. "Beyond that interview, and the 1993 assault itself, during which, according to the complainant's claim, Biden pressed her against the wall in his gym and pushed his fingers to her chiseled limbs, it turns out the previous year, seven American women filed complaints against G. And Biden according to their attempts to kiss them, touch them and hug them against their will .

Further support for Reid's claims is heard by her brothers and other officials, who indicate that in real time she was discussing the incident and described a not-so-simple incident with Biden. The same factors point out that "It is not surprising that today she elaborates more on what happened, it is natural for sexual assault."  

Reid herself also recently filed a complaint with the Washington Police Department against the senator, who denies her allegations. However, Biden has already apologized for his treatment of women this year, after complaints began in the field. It should be noted that CNN itself has declined to comment on Fox News regarding the allegations. And yet, last Saturday, the network first addressed charges and an interview with Larry King.
