“Up the Down Staircase” is a 1960s movie featuring an English teacher in an inner-city New York high school. Like other popular movies from years gone by, many are remade into a more woke or politically correct version.

An honest media would ask CircleBack Psaki if President Biden stands by his previous words and if they apply to his recent fall. Instead they will ask if Joe scuffed his shoes or scratched the Rolex the media once fawned over.
It has been a tough few weeks for Joe. He referred to his vice-president as “President Harris” and recently forgot the name of his Secretary of Defense and the famous five-sided building where he works.
This is all good for memes and chuckles on social media, but it is far more serious for America and the world. The UK’s NHS has good information on falls and dementia.
