Concerning the coverage itself. 1 minute and 44 seconds is hardly equivalent to several hours of coverage of actual testimony.
Further, each point within that 1 minute and 44 seconds consisted of a few seconds of actual testimony of the IRS investigators followed by a rebuttal by the NBC commentator about why that slice of testimony was wrong.Two minutes or so is what a 20-minute nightly news show (less commercials) provides a news story. And what, you think reporting the "news" is running film of the testimony without context or contrary evidence?
Here, this is the 3-minute CBS segment which you also missed, reported on the CBS Evening News with Norah O'Donnell by their far-rightwing investigative correspondent, Catherine Herridge (a Fox News reporter for two decades). Herridge lets Shapely go on and on without push-back. But even Herridge has to give time to the other side, but literally just a few seconds.
I think even you'll admit that ninety percent of this segment is pro-whistleblower, anti-Hunter Biden. Although clearly one-sided reporting, it does refute your claim that democrats are brainwashed by their liberal sources.
