The New York Times’s ‘Late Breaking News’ on Hunter Biden

Paradise Valley, Ariz.

The “revelations” from the New York Periods that Hunter Biden’s laptop is genuine is all the more extraordinary in highlighting the media’s deficiency of introspection (“All the News That’s Eventually Suit to Print,” Critique & Outlook, March 19).

The media piously condemns Vladimir Putin’s propaganda device, and justifiably so, nevertheless it appears to be blind to how it has blocked reporting on Biden Inc. The quarantining of valid, essential information tales by the media here borders on propaganda.

I predict the media will critically analyze the Biden family members impact-peddling strategies late following year—if the president’s poll figures have not budged and he’s showing a resolve to operate for re-election. The powers that be will then rediscover this scandal to get the president to re-look at his decision.

Some Republicans are arguing that this scandal, at last acknowledged by the New York Situations, proves the 2020 election was “rigged.” It would be unfortunate if this notion were used to assist the perilous see pushed by previous President

Donald Trump

that he gained the 2020 election.

There’s no doubt that the failure to pursue the disclosures in Mr. Biden’s laptop computer was the most egregious example of media bias in our record. It very probably tilted the 2020 election to President Biden. The data on the laptop computer implies he was profiting from his son’s business dealings.

However, this is only another case in point of the media’s alignment with the Democratic Party—a flaw in our democracy, to be absolutely sure, but not diverse in variety from the hurdles Republicans confront in just about every election.

wrote: “Our Republic and its push will rise or drop collectively. An capable, disinterested, public-spirited press, with educated intelligence to know the correct and bravery to do it, can preserve that general public advantage without the need of which well known governing administration is a sham and a mockery. A cynical, mercenary, demagogic push will produce in time a people today as base as by itself.” Mr. Pulitzer was frighteningly prescient.

If I ended up a subscriber to the New York Instances, would I get a “late breaking news” notification from the paper about this tale?
