During the podcast, Weiss and Scott spoke about the 2020 bill, which was aimed at establishing bi-partisan police reform in the wake of the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis police officers. The bill was never signed into law.

"I wanna tell you a little story that I’m not sure if you know," Weiss said to Scott, alerting him to the incident in 2020 when the New York Times newsroom debated publishing the Senator’s "op-ed about the bill and why it fell apart."

She continued, "And this is the part I’m not sure if you know. There was a discussion about the piece and whether or not we should run it. And one colleague, a more senior colleague, said to a more junior colleague who was pushing for the piece, ‘Do you think the Republicans really care about minority rights?'"

"Wow," Scott replied to the smear.

Weiss’ story kept going. "And the more junior colleagues said, ‘I think Tim Scott cares about minority rights.’ And then, and here’s the pretty shocking part. The more senior colleague said, ‘Let’s check with Senator Schumer before we run it,’" the journalist recalled, providing the kicker the story.

Weiss indicated that the younger staffer refused to reach out the House Minority Leader, worried about ethics concerns.

Are you surprised to hear that? Or does that story feel kind of representative of the way the media has treated you and maybe some of your colleagues?" Weiss asked the lawmaker, though Scott claimed he was not and added he had experienced such treatment before.

"I am disappointed to hear that. I am not surprised to hear that. You have to remember that The Washington Post fact checked my life," he claimed, referencing how the paper spent "three or four months" going through "records to find out whether or not my grandfather actually dropped out of the school in the third grade, their records suggested he dropped out in the fourth grade, but still didn’t learn to read."

"They wanted to know if I had somehow hidden my silver spoon and just was using a plastic spoon instead," the Senator commented, adding, "there is something national media wants to frame any conservatives, particularly Black conservatives, as being disingenuous or insincere or a tool for the conservatives. When in fact the Black community is consistently as conservative as any community."

The NYTimes is just another arm of the DNC.

You’re gonna take the National Review’s word for it?

Left wing media: Takes a centrist stance, "bothsides" on political positions, hated by both sides, falls all over itself, apologizes and retracts and offers a correction whenever it's actually solidly proven wrong.

Right wing media: Hard right, completely shameless, unrepentant, unapologetic, busted for lying thousands of times, but virtually never retracts, never corrects the record, never apologizes, unless they are hit with a multimillion dollar lawsuit like Newsmax.

+2 but the “left wing media” has been going hard for the GOP, see the CNN tweet above.

It’s compulsive behavior by the media at this point. Like an alcoholic not in recovery, they can’t stop themselves. The comments excoriate the paper for this idiotic piece. It actually contains this line: “[…]and the ones who bracketed what Democrats see as the disastrous tenure of Donald Trump.” “What Democrats see”? The front page is literally splashed with the damage that Trump did and they’re still doing this?

Nah, it just highlights that the concerns Republicans had about Hillary's private email server were politically motivated and not in good faith. Just another example to toss onto their "party over country" pile.

It wasn’t done.

And are you a right wing PR person? Why would your post be “the left needs a new PR person”? You think we’re all PR people? Is this more GOP projection, is that what the most annoying and least informable RWNJ pps on this website are, paid flacks?
