In a recent media appearance, MSNBC host Jen Psaki expressed frustration over the media coverage of the Special Counsel report on President Biden's handling of classified documents. Psaki, who previously served as Biden's press secretary, argued that White House aides were "banging their heads against the wall" due to the way the report had been covered.

During her appearance, Psaki was asked about Biden's decision not to sit down for an interview on Super Bowl Sunday. She pointed out that times have changed and brought up the Special Counsel report as an example. Psaki lamented that despite other significant events taking place, such as Donald Trump's suggestion that Vladimir Putin should have free rein to attack NATO allies, the media had focused extensively on trivial matters, such as questioning whether Biden, who is four years older than his opponent, is too old to be president.

Following Psaki's comments, panelist Brendan Buck, a former adviser to Paul Ryan and John Boehner, stated that it was the president's job to attack his opponent. Psaki disagreed, arguing that Biden has taken fewer opportunities, including interviews and press conferences, compared to his predecessors. She expressed concern that the public was being led to believe that Biden has two contrasting versions: one who is sharp behind closed doors and another who makes verbal gaffes.

Psaki, who also dedicated a segment on her own show to discuss the report, criticized the media for not emphasizing the clear contrast between Biden and Trump. She acknowledged that Biden's actions were "sloppy," but stressed the importance of focusing on the significant differences between the candidates. Psaki pointed out that the report contained a line about Biden's memory, which she believed was a gift to the Trump team. However, she countered by showing instances where Trump had made gaffes of his own, including confusing Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi.

Psaki concluded by emphasizing the need to prioritize the important issues in the election, rather than getting caught up in discussions about gaffes or the age difference between the candidates. She argued that Trump's gaffes were not the biggest risks associated with electing him and urged the media to redirect attention to matters of substance.

It remains to be seen how the media will respond to Psaki's criticisms and whether they will adjust their coverage accordingly. The Special Counsel report on Biden's handling of classified documents continues to be a topic of contention as the election approaches.
