Will the media cover President Biden as they did Trump?
Going back to the 2016 presidential campaign it was obvious the mainstream, elite media--The NY Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, et al--were in the tank for Hillary Clinton.
Liberals actually think the opposite is true, that these media companies carried water for the Trump campaign. These media companies literally had reporters "fact-checking" his comments 24/7.
Take for instance the narrative that claims Trump described immigrants as "rapists".
A WaPo "Fact Checker" from July 2015 is called "Donald Trump’s false comments connecting Mexican immigrants and crime."
Here is Trump's quote:
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
The way the Post reporter tried to "fact-check" Trump was by reinterpreting his quote in a bad light.
The reality is that some people who cross the U.S. border illegal do smuggle drugs, are involved in human trafficking and are criminals. That's no secret.
And yet with Biden, the media will take the opposite approach, reinterpreting his policies and words in the best possible light. It's not amnesty, it's "immigration reform". It's not open borders, it will be a "deportation moratorium."
And they will do this with other Biden policies as well.

Of course not. Everything will be blamed on Trump and Congress like they did with all of Obama's embarrassing and dismal failures. Remember the rollout of the ObamaCare website ?

In your own question, you showed that the media accurately fact checked him. Maybe you should spend less time crying about fact checks, and more time telling the truth so you won't get fact checked.

No, because Biden will not be transparent. And he is Hillary Clinton's guy. His backers will give him new words to use and you will constantly hear phrases you've never heard before in their scheme to deceive.

If Biden is as careless with the truth and an outright liar like trump then yes they will.
“Fact-checking” on the regular isn’t something the media should have to do but maybe if traitor trump didn’t lie more than every other president in history then he wouldn’t have had to be fact checked constantly.

yes, they will report what he says, they just won't have to continuously follow that up with a fact check about how what he said was a lie
