Per the article:
Over the course of 14 months, the Chinese energy conglomerate, CEFC China Energy, and its executives paid $4.8 million to entities controlled by Hunter Biden and his uncle. Joe’s 10% take from that deal — $480,000 — cash!
Then there’s Burisma. Hunter Biden received $1 million per year for five years for a no-show job. He was paid in monthly installments of $83,333.33. According to Reuters, “Biden never visited Ukraine for company business during that time.” Joe’s cut — $500,000 — cash.
Then there’s the $3.5 million wire transfer from Elena Baturina, the richest woman in Russia and the widow of Yury Luzhkov, the former mayor of Moscow. The Big Guy only cleared $300,000 on that one.
At the time, the media’s “fact checkers” dismissed these revelations as disinformation, calling it “laptop stuff.”
This guy makes Manafort look like a saint.
This article is corruption in the media.
I’d understand it if the article referenced an Independent Press following the Society of Professional Journalist’s Code of Ethics https://www.spj.org/ethicscode.asp.
...but it is naive to believe for a second the Media is anything but a political tool specializing in infomercials and ad copy for their client.
There is big money in being a spokesperson like Don Lemon or Chuck Todd, no different than the Sham Wow or Flex Seal guy hosting long segments selling assumptions instead of gadgets.
