White House, Media Criticize Fox News Reporter for Questioning Biden's Age

Lucas Tomlinson Accused of 'Astroturfing' After Failing to Disclose He Asked the Question Himself

Fox News reporter Lucas Tomlinson was criticized by the White House and other media outlets for asking President Biden if he was 'too old' to run for re-election and then reporting on his own question.
Tomlinson did not disclose in his report that he was the one who asked the question, leading to accusations of 'astroturfing a political attack'.
Biden, who is 81, dismissed the question about his age as 'stupid'.
Public polling has shown bipartisan concern about the president's age.
The relationship between Fox News and Biden's White House has been notably tense throughout his presidency.
