WaPo spin on ex-intel officials' letter & Biden campaign is 'pure propaganda by regime apologists'

Earlier this week the House Judiciary Committee Republicans said that testimony has revealed more about the letter 50-plus former intelligence officials signed shortly before the 2020 election saying in their opinion stories about Hunter Biden’s laptop were likely part of a Russian disinformation campaign.

It now appears that the Biden campaign and Antony Blinken were behind the letter that gave the media an excuse to avoid covering the story (and also gave social media platforms a reason to suspend outlets that did report about the laptop):

That sounds like a legit scandal, right? Guess what happened next…

You know it! Washington Post has come to the rescue:

Miranda Devine sees the WaPo doing its water-carrying thing again:

It must be comforting for Dems to know they can always count on the Post to run interference for them.

“The connection isn’t so direct.” That sounds like the media spin we saw when journos were trying to say Alvin Bragg’s campaign didn’t get money from George Soros.

Here’s an example of one attempt to earn some “journalism” social credit points from the Biden administration:

Morell told an associate that the Biden campaign had suggested the statement be shared with a particular reporter for The Washington Post. (The Washington Post did not initially write about the statement, which Politico was the first to report on.) He also said part of his motivation was to “help Vice President Biden.”

The implication of the letter — which Jordan spelled out more explicitly Thursday night on Fox News — is that the Biden campaign was creating a pretext for suppressing the story, using the former intelligence officials.

“Then, quickly, it turns into this political operation — that letter that became the basis for suppressing the story and keeping it from the American people just days before the most important election we have: election for president of the United States,” Jordan said on Fox.

The Jordan-Turner letter connects this to social media companies blocking or limiting the sharing of the story, saying of the Oct. 19 statement, “Social media companies simultaneously restricted access to the [New York] Post story.”

But the letter appears to have omitted key context, including whether Blinken actually pushed for such a statement.

If this was about a Republican president’s campaign getting a few dozen former intelligence officials to write a letter casting doubt about a story the campaign knew to be true to keep it out of the news just ahead of an election, there would be more than enough to impeach by now and the media would be flipping out. Instead we get the Washington Post reporting why it’s not really that big of a deal.

It’s tiring work but somebody’s got to do it.

Corruption and colluding to interfere in an election… just not so directly. Ah, “journalism”!
