This isn't a pivot away. Its throwing a bone to give their defense a point that they aren't hilariously biased and ultra woke. It exists so that it exists and can be cited as proof they "shoot both sides when they deserve it."
Its how these Leftie shows always do it. Once things start to get a little shakey, they give themselves this little shield to act like they are somewhat bipartisan and throw normies off that they are equally as guilty as the ships that get sunk.
I still remember watching MadTV on Comedy Central years later when they had the rights and aired it like all day, and the sheer amount of random bleeps (usually just a pure Mute button) was notable even at the time.
The one I specifically remember, and still use, is "my stupid [homo] brain." Because its such a dumb phrase that it becomes funnier because of how stupid it is.

True. I don't expect them to become Mad TV anytime soon.
