It would be great to be a fly on the wall in newsrooms at mainstream media outlets across the nation following a Joe Biden “press conference.” They know what’s coming, or rather, what’s NOT coming. They hope that they’re wrong on the surface as their journalistic instincts kick in, but deep down they realize that it’s probably for the best that Joe Biden does NOT take questions from the press. No matter how many softballs they throw at him, he’ll find a way to mess up his answer.
The conversation probably goes something like this:
- Reporter: “Joe didn’t take questions again. Scampered off like rodent when the porch light comes on.”
- Producer: “Did you really expect him to this time? I thought his campaign told you there would be no question.”
- Reporter: “They did, and I asked him what the point was of even having us there. Why not just get in front of a camera with a teleprompter?”
- Producer: “They need the press there so they can claim he had a press conference even though we know he won’t take questions.”
- Reporter: “Should we call him out on it? Should we tell the campaign that if we can’t ask questions then we won’t show up just to have him read stuff to us?”
- Producer: “No. Remember, orange man bad. We have an election to win for the team.”
At yesterday’s “Environmental Justice” teleprompter-reading session, Biden once again hustled away from the microphone. It was a bit different this time because the press didn’t even yell questions at him. They were likely told not to do that so it’s not so conspicuous that he won’t answer them.
Q: How many times will mainstream media let @JoeBiden run away from podiums at "press conferences" without taking questions?
A: As many times as it takes to try to steal the election and keep the American people in the dark about his obvious cognitive decline. https://t.co/ESkfXS4tC7

Regardless of one’s political affiliation, the American people need to start asking questions of mainstream media about their complicity in Biden’s question-shy nature. The role of American media is to seek the truth, and while they’ve done an abysmal job of it during the Trump era (and before, to be honest), they should have enough self-respect to not be campaign props. There is absolutely no reason for press to gather at a press conference that does not allow questions.
This is quickly becoming absolutely ludicrous. If Biden cannot even handle questions from the press that are not submitted ahead of time or crafted by his campaign, how in the world is he supposed to handle the responsibilities of being President of the United States? It’s understandable that partisan Democrat insiders would dismiss this concern in hopes that he’s kept tucked away in the Oval Office while Kamala Harris and the cabinet run the country, but the American people, including Democrats, want to know if he can handle the tough situations that will surely be placed before a Biden administration. We don’t want to know if his handlers can answer questions. We want to know if HE can do it.
Apparently, he cannot, and that should concern us all. But it’s possibly even more concerning that mainstream media is playing an active role in keeping Biden protected from… them. All it would take is one question from Jake Tapper or Rachel Maddow on their shows wondering why a presidential candidate seems to be incapable of handling situations that are not pre-planned. There won’t be a teleprompter telling Biden what to say to Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, or any other world leaders he meets. A teleprompter isn’t going to help him make decisions during the next crisis that requires attention in real-time.
Joe Biden is the first presidential candidate who refuses to answer off-the-cuff questions. Every question AND answer is controlled by the campaign. Real life of a president isn’t like that. They need to be able to think for themselves, which Joe Biden cannot.
COVID-19 may take down an independent news outlet
Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.
Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.
When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.
Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the so-called “surge” or “2nd-wave” that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.
The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $11,500 to stay afloat for the rest of 2020, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.
The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.
Election year or not, coronavirus lockdowns or not, anarchic riots or not, the need for truthful journalism endures. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.

American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
