“Hacked materials.” “Russian disinformation.” “Unsubstantiated.”
One year ago, The Post revealed that Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop carried proof he sold influence while his father served as vice president — and his dad, now president, knew it. Yet most other media treated the story itself as the scandal, reporting only on vague claims that sought to undermine it rather than rushing (as they would’ve under the last president) to advance it themselves.
And Twitter and Facebook rushed to block it, squelching vital information even as America voted.
None of them has learned any lesson except that it worked: Big Tech and Big Media got their way, at the expense of our democracy.
In short: They got away with it. All of them. From the Bidens, to social-media companies, to the press.
Though the media have (mostly) stopped pretending we got anything wrong, most outlets still don’t even mention these revelations — even in stories where they’re highly relevant, such as Hunter’s ongoing art-show grift, which looks a blatant effort to solicit funds from those hoping to win the president’s goodwill.
Who in the hell is Hunter Biden?
