It’s truly amazing to witness how fast the liberal narrative changes in a week. Last Tuesday, ABC’s World News Tonight was deeply frightened by the idea that the 11 Republican men on the Senate Judiciary Committee would be asking the questions to Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. This Tuesday, they did a complete 180 and were huffing about the panel hiring a female lawyer to ask their questions for Thursday’s scheduled hearing.

Just last week, sensationalist anchor David Muir was concerned about “[h]ow will this accuser be treated [by GOP Senators] if she does testify?” But tonight, he was opposed to those Senators rejecting her ridiculous demands:

All of the Republicans on the committee are men and there is word tonight that they've now hired a woman, an attorney, to ask the questions for them. Dr. Ford had argued those Senators should have to ask her the questions themselves.

Of course, there was no mention that Ford had demanded that she not be sworn in under oath when giving her testimony, which has been seen as a red flag by many.

Towards the top of her report, bitter Congressional correspondent Mary Bruce decried how many of the GOP Senators had made up their minds already. “But even before they hear one word of testimony from Christine Blasey Ford, it's clear many top Republicans have already made up their minds,” she bemoaned.

There was no such concern from Bruce when Senate Democrats like Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) and Mazie Hirono (HI) had declared Kavanaugh guilty. Yet, she was obsessed with why committee Republicans hired the female lawyer. Of course, she alluded to sexism (click “expand” to read):

BRUCE: Does it have anything to do with the fact that all the Republicans on the committee are men? SEN. JOHN KENNEDY: Not for me, but I can't speak for my other colleagues. But I am a man, that's a fact. BRUCE: Democrats a skeptical. SEN. KAMALA HARRIS: Clearly, they didn’t want to ask the questions directly. BRUCE: Republican Bob Corker says GOP Senators on the committee need to protect themselves from themselves. SEN. BOB CORKER: I think it's really smart of them to get outside counsel. UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Why? CORKER: Somebody will do something that you guys will run 24/7 and you know, inadvertently somebody will do something that's insensitive.

“This prosecutor will be leading the charge for all of the questioning on the Republican side, though Senators tell us they may still jump in from time to time,” Bruce concluded.

While CBS Evening News may not have shown quite the same level of concern for GOP questions as ABC did last week, they were critical this Tuesday. “Today, the 11 Republican men who sit on the Senate Judiciary Committee announced they have hired an unnamed female lawyer to question Ford at the hearing for them,” reported congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes. “Ford has repeatedly requested not to be grilled by a lawyer.”

ABC's World News Tonight

September 25, 2018

6:39:31 p.m. Eastern DAVID MUIR: There is another major development on this. Judge Kavanaugh and his first accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, will sit before the Judiciary Committee, before the American people Thursday morning, taking questions, both of them. All of the Republicans on the committee are men and there is word tonight that they've now hired a woman, an attorney, to ask the question for them. Dr. Ford had argued those Senators should have to ask her the questions themselves. And ABC's Mary Bruce up on the hill on that. [Cuts to video] MARY BRUCE: As Republican leaders rally around Judge Kavanaugh, one key Republican senator, Lisa Murkowski, is sending her own party a clear message. LISA MURKOWSKI: It's very important to take allegations of those we forward, to take them seriously. BRUCE: Murkowski says she is undecided, telling The New York Times “it's about whether or not Judge Kavanaugh is qualified. It is about whether or not a woman, who has been a victim at some point in her life, is to be believed." But even before they hear one word of testimony from Christine Blasey Ford, it's clear many top Republicans have already made up their minds. MITCH MCCONNELL: I'm confident we're going to win. I’m confident he will be confirmed in the very near future. BRUCE: Today, Republicans on the Judiciary Committee, all of whom are men, announced they've hired an outside counsel, a woman, to question Ford and Judge Kavanaugh on Thursday. Does it have anything to do with the fact that all the Republicans on the committee are men? SEN. JOHN KENNEDY: Not for me, but I can't speak for my other colleagues. But I am a man, that's a fact. BRUCE: Democrats a skeptical. SEN. KAMALA HARRIS: Clearly, they didn’t want to ask the questions directly. BRUCE: Republican Bob Corker says GOP Senators on the committee need to protect themselves from themselves. SEN. BOB CORKER: I think it's really smart of them to get outside counsel. UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Why? CORKER: Somebody will do something that you guys will run 24/7 and you know, inadvertently somebody will do something that's insensitive. [Cuts back to live] MUIR: So much debate on this on both sides. Mary Bruce live from the hill tonight. So Mary, just to clarify here, Republicans have hired that female attorney to ask questions on their behalf, not just o Dr. Ford, but of Judge Kavanaugh, as well, and this is so the Senators won't have to ask the questions themselves? BRUCE: Yeah, David. This prosecutor will be leading the charge for all of the questioning on the Republican side, though Senators tell us they may still jump in from time to time. Now, we still don't know who this attorney is. Her identity is being protected tonight for her own security. Now, on the Democratic side, those Senators will still be doing their own grilling.
