'New York Times' Quietly Removes Claim That Hunter Biden Laptop Story Was ‘Unsubstantiated’
PJ Media ^ | 09/14/2021 | Matt Margolis

Recently, the Federal Election Commission decided that Twitter’s censoring of the New York Post‘s Hunter Biden laptop story from last year did not violate election laws. In reporting on the new development on Monday, the Times was still covering for Biden. Here’s what the article said.

The Federal Election Commission has dismissed Republican accusations that Twitter violated election laws in October by blocking people from posting links to an unsubstantiated New York Post article about Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s son Hunter Biden.

This description of the laptop story being “unsubstantiated” was echoed in a tweet soon after publication.

Breaking News: The FEC ruled that Twitter’s decision in October to block an unsubstantiated article about President Biden's son, Hunter Biden, did not violate election laws, according to a document obtained by The New York Times. https://t.co/EzFKKvQ7X2

However, sometime later, the story was changed to read the following:

When Twitter decided briefly last fall to block users from posting links to an article about Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s son Hunter, it prompted a conservative outcry that Big Tech was improperly aiding Mr. Biden’s presidential campaign.

Despite the rather significant change, no editor’s note acknowledging the revisions was added to the story.

Hours later, the New York Times publishes an update to an article that removes the word "unsubstantiated" when talking about a New York Post article on Hunter Biden that was the subject of an FEC complaint

The New York Times forever lost its honor and journalistic integrity when it openly colluded with Biden. It patently refused to report or investigate the Hunter Biden hard drive. It was absolutely negligent in its obligation to report to the American people the corruption, the criminality and depravity of Joe Biden. Biden is a man who used his own addicted ,diseased son as his bagman. The New York Times can never again be trusted. It is a propaganda organ of the worst sort.

Shane Goldmacher of the New York Times committed the crime of an illegal political contribution-in-kind and needs to be charged for it. He proved his guilt when he changed the story afterwards.
