Not really surprised, once a liar always a liar.

I was surprised that the MSM was actually covering it and not making excuses for him. Maybe the MSM was less partisan back then, I don't remember.

The media was still biased back then, but they hadn't fallen into advocacy journalism. They asked tough questions of both sides and held those on their side of the political spectrum to a high standard (re: the Biden bits).

Today, much of the journalism surrounding politics is advocating for or against someone or something. For a glaring example, all we have to do is look to the disparity in styles and levels of coverage between Trump-Russia collusion and the Hunter Biden Laptop (and its contents).
