Some, particularly on the Left, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrislhayes\/status\/1485741913600892929\">agreed<\/a> with Biden\u2019s assessment and found the situation hilarious. <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/you-see-the-smile-brian-stelter-claims-biden-definitely-knew-mic-was-hot-when-he-called-doocy-an-sob\/\">Others argued<\/a> that if it was wrong when former President Donald Trump attacked members of the press corps, it was equally wrong when Biden did it. Some on the Right voiced outrage, and others suggested that it was evidence of a double standard.<\/p>\n<p>But Michael Grynbaum, in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/01\/29\/business\/biden-peter-doocy-fox-news.html\">article<\/a> published Saturday, referred to the confrontation as \u201cone of the most unlikely feel-good moments\u201d of Biden\u2019s presidency so far.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The spectacle of President Biden lobbing an unintentionally amplified expletive at a reporter from Fox News turned out to be one of the most unlikely feel-good moments of his time in office, our media correspondent writes. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/keU4cyjE6k\">https:\/\/t.co\/keU4cyjE6k<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The New York Times (@nytimes) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nytimes\/status\/1487400160615452673?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 29, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Grynbaum then proceeded to suggest that both Biden and <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/watch-peter-doocy-responds-to-biden-calling-him-a-stupid-son-of-a-b\/\">Doocy<\/a> came out winners following the exchange \u2014 but the evidence he gave to support his position made it clear that it was almost entirely Doocy\u2019s behavior after the fact that rescued the president from a scenario that could have been much less flattering.<\/p>\n<p>Grynbaum noted that within an hour of the <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/biden-snaps-at-reporter-peter-doocy-for-asking-about-inflation-what-a-stupid-son-of-a-b\/\">president\u2019s outburst<\/a>, Doocy was in front of a camera laughing it off.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the President\u2019s right.

And that\u2019s it. The apology and then the acceptance and the moving on was the best scenario of an ugly situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grynbaum continued to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/01\/29\/business\/biden-peter-doocy-fox-news.html\">suggest<\/a> that the main reason Biden\u2019s outburst, borne of frustration, parlayed easily into a \u201cfeel-good moment\u201d was because it was benign in comparison to Trump\u2019s claims that the press was \u201cthe enemy of the people\u201d:<\/p>\n<p><em>Mr. Trump not only viciously insulted reporters (\u201cdisgrace\u201d; \u201closer\u201d and \u201cenemy of the people\u201d), he also incited public anger against the press. His supporters sent frightening threats to journalists and in at least one case mailed <a class=\"css-1g7m0tk\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2019\/04\/24\/us\/cesar-sayoc-letter-trump-rallies\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a pipe bomb<\/a> to CNN.
