Bannon and Giuliani brought their Hunter Biden lap top story to the legitimate press to run.
Every right wing news papers refused to run it, except the Murdoch tabloid... the New York Post, because this last minute OCTOBER SURPRISE by the Trump campaign, could not be verified before printing, if the story printed right away....which the Trump campaign wanted them to do, to smear Biden in their October surprise before the election.
And then of course none of the legit press on the Left would run the story until researched and verified as either.
The RIGHT WING NEWS that would not print the article because it lacked credibility at the time was FOX NEWS, The Washington Times, the Wall Street Journal, The Washington Examiner...
The reason the press believed it was likely filled with Russian propaganda is because everyone knew from Trump's impeachment that he had Giuliani over in Ukraine, working with Russian Ukrainian sympathizers and oligarchs, and crooked govt officials to create dirt to smear Biden....with John Solomon to write about it daily all going on too.
So, running a story like the Hunter Biden lap top story, without the time to verify it, was inappropriate and broke journalism standards for the press.
The NY Post is a tabloid, and has no standards.
