Tapper: Media Was āMuch More Supportiveā Of Obama
"CNN anchor Jake Tapper conceded in a recent interview that many of his peers in the media were slow to call out falsehoods from former President Obama because they were āmuch more supportiveā of him.
āA lot of people on the left didnāt like it [when Tapper called out falsehoods from the president] before, and now they like it,ā Tapper said in an interview with Rolling Stone published Tuesday morning.
āI donāt want to compare President Obama and President Trump on these issues because theyāre different and the scale isnāt even remotely the same. But President Obama said things that werenāt true and got away with it more for a variety of reasons, and one is the media was much more supportive of him,ā he added. āThe Obama White House thought I was self-righteous and a huge pain in the ass.ā
