In many ways, Joe Biden owes his very presidency to the network of misinformation and disinformation tightly sewn by the legacy media in league with the Democratic Party. To pretend that didn\u2019t happen, and then to give Hunter Biden a platform of authority on the subject, is like asking a convicted cannibal to give a lecture on the benefits of veganism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Looking back to October 2020, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/10\/14\/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad\/\"><span>New York Post<\/span><\/a><span> broke the now infamous article titled, \u201cSmoking-gun email reveals how Hunter Biden introduced Ukrainian businessman to VP dad.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Almost immediately, the supposedly objective legacy media mobilized. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2020\/10\/18\/media\/new-york-post-hunter-biden-reliable\/index.html\"><span>CNN<\/span><\/a><span> called the story \u201cdubious.\u201d <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/10\/18\/business\/media\/new-york-post-hunter-biden.html\"><span>The New York Times<\/span><\/a><span>, as is usual, cited anonymous sources which undermined the story. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2020\/10\/14\/hunter-bidens-alleged-laptop-an-explainer\/\"><span>The Washington Post<\/span><\/a><span>\u2019s fact checkers went to work on \u201cexplaining\u201d the story. The Daily Beast ran <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/12\/10\/how-media-covered-up-the-hunter-biden-story-until-after-the-election\/\"><span>headlines<\/span><\/a><span> like \u201cRussian State Media Is Desperately Trying to Keep the Hunter Biden Story Alive\u201d and \u201cFBI Examining Hunter\u2019s Laptop As Foreign Op, Contradicting Trump\u2019s Intel Czar.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Big Tech also rallied behind the \u201cfake news\u201d effort. Twitter <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/nypost-remains-locked-out-of-twitter-a-week-after-publishing-bombshell-hunter-biden-report\"><span>locked<\/span><\/a><span> the New York Post\u2019s account, and Facebook\u2019s Policy Communications Director, Andy Stone, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/andymstone\/status\/1316395902479872000\"><span>boasted<\/span><\/a><span> that the story was \u201celigible to be fact checked\u201d and that the social media giant would be \u201creducing\u201d the story\u2019s \u201cdistribution\u201d on Facebook.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Days after the election, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/twitter-ceo-admits-his-company-was-wrong-to-censor-hunter-biden-story\">said<\/a> that Twitter was \u201cwrong\u201d to censor the New York Post and its news stories on Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p><span>Not only that, months later, long after Joe Biden\u2019s fake news shield helped him achieve electoral victory, Hunter Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/hunter-biden-admits-laptop-at-center-of-scandal-might-be-his-promotes-debunked-claim\">admitted<\/a> that the laptop at the center of the New York Post\u2019s bombshell October report could, in fact, be his.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cOf course, certainly. There could be a laptop out there that was stolen from me. It could be that I was hacked. It could be that was the \u2014 that it was Russian intelligence.
