Facebook and Twitter's frantic attempts to stop the spread of the New York Post's Hunter Biden story didn't prevent the article from becoming the top story about the election on those platforms last week, according to data from NewsWhip.
Why it matters: The data shows that even swift, aggressive content suppression may not be swift or aggressive enough to keep down a story with as much White House backing and partisan fuel as this one.
By the numbers: The Post's story generated 2.59m interactions (likes, comments, shares) on Facebook and Twitter last week — more than double the next biggest story about Trump or Biden.

So when will arrests be made? ENOUGH OF THIS JABBER
Streisand effect. The more they tried to suppress it, the more people wanted to know about it.
We should take notice.
I don’t think this will move Dem votes to Trump.
It is possible the Koch-funded Kristol-like Quisling GOP might stay home.

Sweet. Twitter could have ignored the story to death as they do so many. Instead, by attempting to ban it, they only piqued peoples’ interest. Full on Streisand Effect.
Thanks Twitter!
Same with trying to condemn Qanon only results in wider awareness of Quanon.

No, Axio-holes, what matters is, Facebook and Twitter acted in a partisan manner!
Partisan Media Shills update.
Remember all the noise about being “Banned in Boston” being used to sell books or movies.
Elections are won in the middle.
Sometimes the goal is not to get the other side to vote for your side. It’s to get them to not bother to vote at all. That is one of the ways people vote “third party” and dilute their side’s numbers.
The story will not change Democratic votes (many of which have already been cast in early voting, btw).
It _will_ impact Independent voters, and will remind Bernie bots of why they need to either refuse to vote or vote third party.
There are more registered Independent voters than Republican voters or Democrat voters, btw.

The political class will not allow it. And yes, Trump is now part of the political class. Whenever you see someone say "it's coming!" just tell yourself "that person wants my money and my vote." It'll help clear your mind of the misconception that Washington will ever be free of corruption.

Taken to a situation where WH and press are in cahoots, ....
Oh wait. Contrary to all its self-promotion and emotional gimicks, the press job isn't to inform the public, nor is it to "protect democracy."
Fake News! If it wasn't a danger, it would be a laughingstock.
Yeah. Somebody has to lock up the NY Post. What's up with the delay?
Wonder if it’s front page on the supermarket tabloids at the checkouts?
...goes massive...
What has happened to our language?
So when will arrests be made? ENOUGH OF THIS JABBER
Nothing on my radio today about Biden’s computer. This story seems to be all but over. Huge mistake not releasing more info. I’m done counting chickens on this.
Haven’t you heard? Good English has been ruled “racist” by our communist elite.
And since they are cluttering all levels of the Universities...
