WHO IS THE NEWS REALLY ROOTING FOR?

I'm beginning to think that MSNBC, for one wants Trump to win a second term. Not because they like him. He's as hated by most networks as by most people. But because he's good for business. With Trump in power, they're assured of daily news stories: misspeaks, mishaps, idiocies, scandals, week-long controversies. A well-run government would never offer the same excitement and ratings. For instance Tara Reade who has accused Joe Biden of a sexual assault without any proof was recently exposed as a liar, thief, and con woman by a California ranch owner, but I have seen no mention of it on MSNBC news. Yet they are still going after Biden as if he were a sexual criminal. and both Mika Brzezinski and Alex Witt covered the story with a jaundiced eye on Biden. MSNBC, which is supposed to be a liberal network did as much to hand Trump the presidency as did Fox News by giving him endless election coverage, constantly vilifying Hillary, including a savage attack by Steve Kornacki. Even recently why did they give Trump nightly coverage of his inaccurate coronavirus theories?  Why do they never mention Trump's many crimes, but waste so much time on Biden's more than likely non-assault?
