Hunter Biden, Bane of the ‘Mainstream’ Press
18th August 2021
Four summers ago, the network evening news shows obsessed over Donald Trump Jr. attending a brief and ineffective meeting with Russians in Trump Tower in 2016. He hoped to get “dirt” on Hillary Clinton, but nothing came of it. ABC, CBS, and NBC offered viewers more than 62 minutes of coverage energetically speculating over collusion with the Russians in just four nights in July.
On August 11, the Daily Mail of London reported “Hunter Biden claimed Russians stole another one of his laptops for blackmail while he was close to overdosing in a Las Vegas hotel room.” Coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC? Nothing. Zero. The story underlined this alleged theft “would mean Hunter lost a total of three computers — the first abandoned at a Delaware computer store and the second seized by federal agents.”
