The most disingenuous part of Silver’s argument is the fact that the ONLY reason anyone is concerned about Biden’s age is precisely because the media won’t shut up about it.

The laws of physics preclude us from being in two places at once, so literally ALL of our information about the world beyond our immediate experience is necessarily relayed to us second-hand. If the media weren’t incessantly bleating about it, no one would have a reason to be concerned about it! 

 @0ae25726 You're absolutely right. Disingenuous is a great word to apply here.
