Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of Atlantic magazine, penned an article on the subject of disinformation to lead into the magazine's conference with Obama strategist David Axelrod in Chicago. We might expect him to at least mention the recent exposure of the falsehood that the information on Hunter Biden's laptop was "Russian disinformation."

Now that The New York Times and The Washington Post finally got around to admitting the authenticity of Hunter's emails, you'd think now is a time for engaging with this inconvenient truth. However, in Goldberg's Wednesday article on the topic -- "Disinformation Is the Story of Our Age" -- the suppressed Hunter Biden laptop story is completely memory-holed.

It’s apparently not disinformation when they do it.

... and no one will pay any price for those editorial judgments taken in the fall of 2020.

Propagandists do not talk about the fact that they are propagandists. When they hold a conference on "disinformation" the point will be to smear everyone but themselves and other official propagandists as liars and ... ironically ... propagandists.

The highlight of the conference was a college student destroying Stelter and entire media charade.

College freshman Christopher Phillips:

“You’ve all spoken extensively about Fox News being a purveyor of disinformation. But CNN is right up there with them. They pushed the Russian collusion hoax, they pushed the Jussie Smollett hoax. They smeared Justice Kavanaugh as a rapist and they also smeared Nick Sandmann as a white supremacist, and yes, they dismissed the Hunter Biden laptop affair as pure Russian disinformation with mainstream corporate journalists becoming little more than apologists and cheerleaders for the regime. Is it time to finally declare that the canon of journalistic ethics is dead or no longer operative? All the mistakes of the mainstream media and CNN in particular, seem to magically all go in one direction. Are we supposed to believe this is all just some sort of random coincidence or is there something else behind it?”

CNN Propagandist Brian Stelter:

“Too bad it’s time for lunch!”
