Not that the media is biased against the president or anything like that, but President Trump was about one line into his State of the Union address when NBC News’ Kasie Hunt filed her first complaint.
“The agenda I will lay out this evening is not a Republican agenda or a Democrat agenda,” the president says.
Using that construction — “Democrat” instead of “Democratic” — is inherently partisan.

Do you know why he said “Democrat” and not “Democratic”? Because he wants Democrats dead, that’s why.
and thats why the press did it and why the press taught him to do it, because they hate us and want us dead. Wanting us dead is not a side

Kasie, I picked that up immediately. Since you are on the floor, did you wear your boots? This way you won’t step on the sh*t.
