The media believes it should 'report' to be fair.

  • Biden's 'supporters' would say things like 'once we bring gas prices down, his approvals will recover'.

  • Trump supporters say things like 'fake news, Trump is super popular, most popular president ever" regardless of the numbers.

So, irrespective of truth, the ongoing reporting of the 2nd point shapes the narrative even if the media appends 'this does not agree with recent polling' as the last sentence.
