[See NewsBusters for more.] CBS journalists want the Senators in the coming impeachment trial to be impartial and unbiased. Except when they don’t care about that. On Wednesday, This Morning co-host Tony Dokoupil hammered Mitch McConnell for having already made a decision against impeachment. Talking to CBS News legal analyst Kim Wehle, he demanded, “The Senate rules for impeachment say, ‘I do solemnly swear,’ this is the oath that each senator takes.” Dokoupil continued the lecture: “‘I do solemnly swear that in all things pertaining to the trial of the impeachment of blank, I will do impartial justice.’ That is the oath. Yet we have Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell saying publicly he's not impartial. Can you square those two things for me?”
