Last week, a Senate Intelligence Committee report detailed how the son of a major presidential candidate, who has an extensive history of shady foreign business dealings, received a $3.5-million wire transfer from the wife of a Russian politician. The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, and most major media outlets didn’t cover the story at all. Four years ago, not reporting such a story was a possibility too absurd to even contemplate – but then again, no one would have predicted the candidate with the shady Russia ties is not Donald Trump, but Joe Biden.
People often talk about how Trump is responsible for destroying political norms, and that’s a valid concern. However, one of the truly frightening things about the Trump era is how institutions have exploited a perceived crisis in truth-telling to justify abandoning their own standards by blaming it on Trump. Increasingly, we see major stories break where the media establishment decides on a collective omertà because the story undermines its own credibility or might sway voters in directions it doesn’t approve of. When that happens, no news is good news.

It is a shame that the lack of MSM coverage is so unsurprising.
His son is just doing what dad did...I guess graft and self-aggrandizement is the family business, I guess.
You know that pelosi is praying that Pence becomes ill as well so she can cause the 25th Amendment to be evoked and be declared President. She could do a lot of damage in a month, including giving Hillary Clinton, Hunter Biden and his daddy a pardon from all future prosecution.
Were the Hunter Biden news all about a son of Trump, it would be on ABC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/MNB/NPR 24/7/365.
It is not on the news because the Left has bot assigned it to the media. To be “news” it must be part of the Left’s narrative and agendas.
Better news for Hunter Biden: FBI and CIA will try their best to protect him and his business.
Media Willfully Ignore Hunter Biden Scandal
Plus Biden on video demanding the Ukrainians drop the investigation against his son.
I see Nanzi Pelosi is AWOL on this.....guess she's getting her hair done.....snx.
Joe Biden knows what she got.......but who would have figured the candidate with ties to Russia was not Trump but Democrat Joe Biden.
Then again, its not surprising. Joe Biden and the Biden Crime Family Syndicate will do or say anything for a buck.
