NPR editor rebukes own outlet's coverage of Hunter Biden laptop, COVID lab leak and Russiagate
NPR editor rebukes own outlet's coverage of Hunter Biden laptop, COVID lab leak and Russiagate
Uri Berliner says Adam Schiff was NPR's 'ever-present muse' on Russia collusion coverage
"The laptop was newsworthy. But the timeless journalistic instinct of following a hot story lead was being squelched. During a meeting with colleagues, I listened as one of NPR’s best and most fair-minded journalists said it was good we weren’t following the laptop story because it could help Trump," he wrote. 
NPR editor Uri Berliner issued a lengthy rebuke of NPR's media coverage of major news stories over the last few years, such as the Hunter Biden laptop and the COVID lab leak theory, and called out the outlet's "efforts to damage" Trump's presidency. 
Berliner, a senior business editor at the outlet, wrote in an essay for the Free Press that NPR's coverage veered off the deep end when Trump was elected in 2016. He cited its coverage of Russiagate first and said NPR "hitched our wagon" to Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who peddled Trump-Russia collusion claims for years.
"Schiff, who was the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, became NPR’s guiding hand, its ever-present muse. By my count, NPR hosts interviewed Schiff 25 times about Trump and Russia. During many of those conversations, Schiff alluded to purported evidence of collusion. The Schiff talking points became the drumbeat of NPR news reports," Berliner wrote. 
After the Robert Mueller report found "no credible evidence of collusion," he wrote, the Trump-Russia story disappeared from NPR's coverage. Berliner said the outlet pretended like it never happened.

But when the Mueller report found no credible evidence of collusion, NPR’s coverage was notably sparse. Russiagate quietly faded from our programming.
It is one thing to swing and miss on a major story. Unfortunately, it happens. You follow the wrong leads, you get misled by sources you trusted, you’re emotionally invested in a narrative, and bits of circumstantial evidence never add up. It’s bad to blow a big story.
What’s worse is to pretend it never happened, to move on with no mea culpas, no self-reflection. Especially when you expect high standards of transparency from public figures and institutions, but don’t practice those standards yourself. That’s what shatters trust and engenders cynicism about the media.
===========
Same as it ever was. No apology from any Tug leftards, leading dem politicians or the MSM for the Russian collusion hoax. Then Hunter's laptop. Or our national covid disaster funded by Fow Chee.
 
Too late now NPR. Go fuck yourself and take the National Review with you
NR now advertising on X that the media didn't just find out that Biden is a piece of shit

No kidding but you supported him anyway
Fuck off

Gasbag opens with a lie, demands an apology.
Mueller spent almost 200 pages describing “numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign.” He found that “a Russian entity carried out a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.” He also found that “a Russian intelligence service conducted computer-intrusion operations” against the Clinton campaign and then released stolen documents.
While Mueller was unable to establish a conspiracy between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians involved in this activity, he made it clear that “[a] statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.” In fact, Mueller also wrote that the “investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts.”

No chit. In Muellers own words he says he could not establish a conspiracy but psycho rats like hh just keep deluding themselves and others. Its the exact same behavior as their ancestors in the kkk who swore up and down there was no holocaust.
hh and other rats are outraged over russian social media campaigns but have zero problem with our own press boldly lying about Conservatives and people like Trump. They also have zero problem with social media hiding stories that are damaging to rat candidates. Listening to these deranged rats drone on about things like russian collusion is like watching an episode of the Twilight Zone. They are crazy as a loon.

200 pages and that is the only line that matters.

They also don't have a problem with the FBI, CIA, and other agencies colluding with the media and big tech to censor free speech and information.
Cause democracy right?
