NPR Says Reporting Biden Corruption ‘Waste of Time’ [semi-satire]

Recent revelations indicating a long-running influence peddling operation involving Biden family members—including the former Vice-President—would strike most people as being newsworthy. However, most of the mainstream media have been avoiding the topic. However, taxpayer-funded National Public Radio (NPR) has gone even further down the road of denial by declaring it a “waste of time.”

Kelly McBride, NPR’s public editor, explained that “unlike commercial media we’re not in this business for the money. As a publicly-funded operation it is our duty to protect the listening audience from hearing unworthy stories. Trump supporters are touting the actions taken by Hunter Biden and his father as some sort of extraordinary instance of corruption. The reality is that the exchange of money for political favors is a long-standing practice. The majority of the major figures in both parties have had a hand in other similar sordid dealings. It is Trump who is out-of-step.”

“The turmoil we are seeing around the nation has been sparked by Trump’s attempt to sweep aside norms that have stood since FDR’s New Deal,” McBride insisted.“The whole point of an active federal government is to open up new ways of handling money. The Great Depression proved that the free market system is an inadequate method for determining the distribution of wealth. Allowing members of the governing class to alter the inequitable situation resulting from capitalism is a necessary step toward social justice. Neither Joe nor Hunter Biden should be smeared by undue scrutiny of how they’ve seized the opportunities opened to them by a more active federal government.”

In related news, Joe Biden praised the media “for standing up for truth against the lies being told by Trump. No one has ever said me or Hunter did anything wrong in our dealings with Ukraine or China. The laptop data that indicates Burisma paid for me to help oust the prosecutor looking into their business dealings proves nothing. If this was wrong the media would’ve jumped all over me. But they didn’t. That’s my ‘get out of jail free card.’ Trump’s foaming at the mouth over my so-called ‘corruption’ shows that he knows this. Once I get to appoint the next Attorney General of the United States those who have persecuted Hunter and I will pay the price.”

Hunter and his daughter traveled on AF2 in Dec 2013 w/ then-VP Biden, when Joe made an official visit to China on behalf of the US govt.

Few people were aware Hunter was closing in on a billion dollar business deal w/ the Communist Chinese govt.

Joe Biden explained it away as an innocent "family vacation."

Hunter, his daughter, and his father, did all the touristy things in China, even went to a Chinese teahouse.....on the taxpayers' dime.

A PHOTO OF THE BIDENS' TAX-PAID VISIT TO A CHINESE TEAHOUSE
IS MEMORIALIZED IN OBAMA'S WH ARCHIVES....Obama apparently saw nothing
wrong with the parasitic Bidens sucking off the backs of struggling taxpayers.

NPR is a waste of money. Defund it!

But the NY Times and WAPO got Pulitzer prizes for reporting on the Russian collusion hoax. I wonder what happened?

“Ugh. There’s sooo much Biden corruption to share! So much, in fact, that we can’t possibly share it all. So to be fair, we won’t share any! It would be a waste if time.” /s

semi satire... and waste of time..

the waste of time and money was the Mueller fiasco.

on this side of that embarrassing long political fake setup, they all KNEW it was fake and did it anyway..
Muller’s legacy will be the case he wasted time and money and in the end he was unable to answer questions on the 3 plus years he pulled off an “investigation” ..

pitiful... putting a family and the nation.. in peril.. for stupidity.
