KTTH’s Michael Medved said he thought President Biden did well in his Thursday night speech regarding the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I was stunned and disappointed, frankly, by the response by some of the conservative voices in media about the president’s speech last night,” Medved told KIRO Radio’s Gee and Ursula Show. “I was moved by it. I thought it was appropriate. I thought it was uplifting and positive and reassuring.”

He added that anyone with an open mind would have felt encouraged by it.
