Catherine Herridge Reveals How CBS Executives Blocked the Hunter Biden Laptop From Hell Story (VIDEO)

Investigative reporter Catherine Herridge revealed how CBS executives blocked the Hunter Biden laptop from hell story.

Catherine Herridge previously worked as the chief intelligence correspondent for Fox News.

In 2019, she joined CBS News as a senior investigative correspondent. She was fired in 2024 after she probed the Hunter Biden laptop from hell story.

Hunter Biden dropped off his damaged laptops at a Delaware computer repair shop run by John Paul Mac Isaac back in 2019.

John Paul Mac Isaac’s life changed in April 2019 when a visibly drunk Hunter Biden stopped by his computer repair shop with three damaged MacBook Pro laptops.

One was destroyed beyond repair, and he gave that back to Hunter.

The other required a keyboard that he loaned to Hunter. He never got that keyboard back. The third laptop Hunter left with Mac Isaac to fix.

Hunter Biden never returned to John Paul Mac Isaac’s repair shop to retrieve his property.

After many failed attempts to reach Hunter Biden, John Paul Mac Isaac took lawful ownership of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop.

In October 2020, The New York Post dropped an “October surprise” on Biden’s presidential campaign and released emails from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop.

The emails revealed Hunter Biden was doing business with foreign countries and acting as Joe Biden’s bagman as part of his international influence peddling scheme.

“When we did the story, we did it after the (2022) midterms. I argued against that because it was ready before the midterms, and my training is that you should always do the story when it’s ready to go. You should not be dictated by the political cycle,” Herridge said.

Catherine Herridge said that after CBS finally aired the Hunter laptop story two years after it was already known to the public, the executives spiked several stories, including one about Joe Biden.

Herridge said executives and producers overrode CBS CEO George Cheeks.

Catherine Herridge is top tier, old school, hard boiled, real reporter. Just
the facts. You could drop her character into a Damon Runyon story and she
wouldn't be out of place.

In her own words ...

Former CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge reveals how CBS blocked the Hunter Biden story Rumble 2:14

I find it amazing that she still doesn't seem to understand that CBS is nothing but a political activist propaganda outlet for the DNC.

The last good thing CBS did for American electoral politics was display the fraudulent Bush Air National Guard memo allowing it to be analyzed. Imagine if they had just typed the words into the chyron instead of showing the document.

The CBS Executives need to be charged and jailed for every penny of that illegal political contribution-in-kind because that’s exactly what that was.

This is why David Ellison took over CBS to end what the Redstones did here. Ellison is doing 40 years later what Jesse Helms said was needed.

“In 2019, she joined CBS News as a senior investigative correspondent.”

***********

A little naive of her. CBS’ strong liberal bias was already a well known factor at that time. What was she thinking?
