The German journalists watch way too much CNN and MSNBC. And they just repeat most of their talking points. Personally I prefer US-leftwing independent media when I want to hear stances on US-politics.
Though today I listened to a podcast of a German newspaper. And the female "US-expert" called Nancy Pelosi a couple of time unironically "badass Pelosi". The other guy sucks of Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg on a regular basis.
Many journalists pretended that a major reason why Hillary Clinton lost to Trump was sexism. Moreover they pretended (some time ago) Kamala Harris would only be so unpopular because of sexism. I think the truth is both of them are probably horrible politicians/people. Though I don't deny that sexism was one factor. But I doubt it was a major one.
