Joe Biden has made a series of false claims about the vaccine rollout but the media is failing to hold the new president to account, according to Sky News Digital Editor Jack Houghton.

President Biden described the vaccine plan produced by the Trump Administration as a “dismal failure”, even though America was on track for a million doses a day before Biden took office.

However, Mr Biden’s comments were repeated unchallenged by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

“Back here in Australia, our ABC Newsradio ran Biden’s false claims completely un-challenged,” Mr Houghton said.

“If Donald Trump had entered office making such claims he would have been quite rightly blasted by the left-wing media both here in Australia and the United States.

“But it appears the ABC has no problems airing false claims when the great Joe Biden is responsible.”
