Pre-election, much of the media disregarded the Hunter Biden laptop story first published by the New York Post.
The reasoning, as journalist Glenn Greenwald noted on Thursday, was twofold: Some members of the media claimed the story was Russian disinformation while others doubted the authenticity of the documents.
These pushbacks came despite The Daily Caller News Foundation obtaining a full copy of Hunter’s alleged laptop in October and verifying the NY Post’s “smoking gun” email, which showed Hunter receiving correspondence from a Burisma executive about an introduction to then-Vice President Joe Biden in 2015.
