This year we had one of the biggest October surprises ever. The New York Post, the oldest daily newspaper the country, published a trove of documents showing that members of Joe Biden’s family had been selling access to the former vice presdient to a number of foreign governments, including the communist government of China. It was a blockbuster story.
The rest of the media decided to kill it. Social media companies banned users from sharing the New York Post’s reporting. Other news organizations simply ignored it. On October 22, 11 days before the presidential election, National Public Radio — an organization that is literally state media, funded by your tax dollars — issued the following statement through its public editor, explaining why they would be refusing to say anything negative about the Bidens.
