While showing a clip of 2020 Dem frontrunner Joe Biden talking to reporters yesterday on comments he made about segregationist senators, CNN ran a Chyron that said, “Biden refuses to apologize for segregationist remarks”:
That feeling when you put three periods at the end of a sentence to accentuate how final your statement is… and then realize that three periods makes an ellipsis.
BIDEN: "I've been involved in civil rights my whole career. Period. Period. Period." pic.twitter.com/aFgL3aFErA

As the Daily Caller’s Eddie Zipperer points out, this is flat out false and Biden never made “segregationist remarks”:
In seriousness though, that chyron @CNN used is extremely unfair. The Chyron says, "Biden refuses to apologize for segregationist remarks." Biden did not make "segregationist remarks." pic.twitter.com/3q5W4APqln

It’s a “hit job”:
I'm absolutely no fan of Joe Biden, but that chyron is just a hit job plain and simple.
