A number of reporters from mainstream media outlets have recently admitted that the Wuhan “lab leak” theory was originally dismissed because it came from Republicans.
Jonathan Karl, ABC News Washington correspondent admitted to ABC’s “This Week” host on Sunday that the lab leak theory was not taken seriously because it came from the Trump administration but, “now serious people are saying it needs a serious inquiry.”
“Yes, I think a lot of people have egg on their face,” Karl said. “This was an idea that was first put forward by Mike Pompeo, secretary of state, Donald Trump, and look, some things may be true even if Donald Trump said them. Because Trump was saying so much else that was just out of control … he said flatly this came from that lab, and it was widely dismissed … but now serious people are saying it needs a serious inquiry.”
Besides Trump and Pompeo, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) argued that the origin of the virus should be investigated because it does not appear to have come from the animal market, as claimed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Cotton told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, in a February 2020 interview, that the CCP has not been honest about when they first knew of the virus and the United States cannot trust CCP officials about the origin of the virus.

Not reporters, propagandists. Somewhat obvious by their admission.
Does this not tell you something incredible about american media?
That’s half the issue.
The leftist media consider Chinese people to be non-white, therefore immune from culpability. After all, the Republicans are racists. It wouldn’t be right to blame their victims. If we did that, rednecks would attack Chinese Americans.
Ah, the leftist mind.
“Media Reporters Say Wuhan Lab Leak Theory Was Disregarded Because It Came From GOP”
Not credible. Media filth know who’s lying and who’s telling the truth.
It was disregarded, even though they knew it was true, because it didn’t support their narrative.
Harvard Law and 1st in class at West Point.
What a dummy!
Yeah. We know. Tools.
The media don’t have to ADMIT that they are RETARDS, they PROVE it every damned day with the crap that comes out of their mouths on air!
The elite scum operating ATT, Comcast, and Disney caused this outcome.
Because Trump praised Hydroxy+antibiotic+zinc for treatment of the virus, the media immediately killed it.
Over 200,000 Americans needlessly died who could have been saved.
Their blood is on the media’s hands, especially Neil Cavuto and Rachel Maddow.
May they rot in hell.
ATT and Comcast need to be fined for every minute of illegal campaign contributions-in-kind to the Democrat Party made by their Propaganda Media outlets. They cannot argue they’re unbiased.
