No, Howie Kurtz, You Can't Rehabilitate NBC News For That Vile Fetterman Attack [View all]
Howie Kurtz calling NBC criticism "media partisanship" could be the height of stupidity -- or hypocrisy.

Fox News' Howie Kurtz has his panties in a bunch over deserved criticism lobbed at NBC News over Dasha Burns swipe at John Fetterman in her interview with him last week.
Its sheer media partisanship, theres no other way to put it! Kurtz snarled. Some anchors and pundits are rushing to defend John Fetterman, who unfortunately suffered a stroke as he was winning the Democratic Senate nomination in Pennsylvania. And theyre taking aim at an NBC reporter who was just doing her job and a very good job at that.
Actually, no. She was not "just doing her job" and she certainly wasn't doing her job last week. What she was doing was taking a swipe at a man's health and recovery from a serious stroke. It wasn't the closed captioning; it was her snide little comment about how he wasn't doing so well with "small talk" ahead of the interview.
