Joe Scarborough is slamming the media’s “biased “coverage of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
“The media coverage of this has been so one-sided,” he said. “It’s been so biased. There’s been a presumption from the very beginning that every single allegation made against the judge was true."
Scarborough made his comments on his MSNBC show, “Morning Joe” on Wednesday.
He compared the press reports on Kavanaugh to media coverage of the 2016 presidential campaign.
“This is what happened during the run-up to the [Donald] Trump election,” he said. “Not even considered the possibility that Donald Trump might win. So, they were shocked by it.”
He added: “And I will say, not just because Donald Trump divides every day in a way that is unbecoming of a president, but because the media has also given Donald Trump a massive opening because they have been so one-sided on this story that it allows him to light dynamite and blow the whole thing up.”
Meanwhile, Trump mocked Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who claimed she was sexually assaulted by Kavanaugh when they were both teenagers.
The president’s comments came during a campaign rally in Mississippi on Tuesday.
