They Knew It Was True, and They Told You It Was a Lie Anyway

But keep on believing the mainstream media.

Glenn Greenwald: 'There are no editorial standards as long as you feed liberals what they want' – HotAir

This is about the Hunter Biden laptop story. Ready the whole thing and watch the video. But here’s the point I want to make.

Greenwald starts by pointing out that the basic emails on which the Hunter Biden laptop story were based were confirmed as being accurate by several sources within days of being published. This wasn’t a case where the basic facts were in doubt. Nevertheless, a group of former intelligence officials wrote a letter (first highlighted by Natasha Bertrand at Politico) claiming the whole story sounded a bit like Russian disinformation. The media ran with it even though the the letter in question admitted there was no proof whatsoever to back up the claims.

They knew it was true. But they shut down the story. NPR wouldn’t talk about it. CNN wouldn’t talk about it. Facebook and Twitter censored posts about it. And instead they posted a piece based upon no facts whatsoever and tried to push it as the real truth.

They knew it was true. They f**king lied to you. To protect their candidate.

This is journalistic malpractice on an unimaginable scale.

Read the whole thing.

Watch the video.

They knew. And they covered it up.
