Reporter Gets Bulldozed Over This Hot Take About the Hunter Biden Laptop Story

You already knew trouble was ahead when a liberal reporter tried to rehash a story that embarrassed them. Paul Farhi of The Washington Post rehashed the “ancient history” behind the Hunter Biden laptop story, claiming that it’s hypocritical to argue that the media should have given more credence to the Hunter Biden laptop story, which he says was “a sketchy, dubiously sourced would-be bombshell a few weeks before Election Day.” 

Why? Well, because conservatives were “triumphant” in weaponizing the 2004 fake news Killian documents disaster. That story got blown up when key documents were revealed to be manufactured drivel aimed at hurting the record of George W. Bush during his time with the Texas Air National Guard. 

Tim Graham, who used to be my former boss at Newsbusters, was the first at-bat to counter this point, noting that no one censored the ‘Killian documents’ story, which was exposed as bogus and might have played a part in ushering Dan Rather’s retirement. Mary Mapes, a top CBS News producer, got fired. Farhi later said that the Hunter Biden laptop story wasn’t censored, leading to an avalanche of mockery and disbelief from people who witnessed it. The New York Post, who first reported on the story, was locked out of their social media accounts for days: 

Also, why is this being brought up when the story was confirmed months after the New York Post reported on it by The New York Times and, yes, The Washington Post

Since Hunter Biden’s motion to dismiss the federal gun charges was rejected, are liberals worried the contents of the laptop could resurface again? Hunter will be brought up again at some point this year; that laptop was the blueprint for the Biden Family’s shady government access operation.  Another story the liberal media thinks is soaked in myth.
