Proof the liberal media ignored the laptop story that would have lost the election for Biden is rampant. Now, they’re doing it again.

Fox: “The mainstream media has largely ignored a leaked voicemail President Joe Biden purportedly left for his son Hunter Biden about his overseas business dealings, maintaining that any materials that allegedly originated from his son’s now-infamous laptop would not be discussed.

President Biden has repeatedly denied discussing Hunter’s business ventures with him, but on June 27, the Daily Mail first published a bombshell voicemail that many feel contradicts previous claims.

The article Biden was referring to was published by the New York Times in December 2018 and reported a private meeting between the chairman of a now-defunct Chinese energy company, CEFC, and Hunter at a Miami hotel in May 2017.

CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC and CBS all ignored the story from June 27 through the morning of July 7, according to a review of transcripts conducted by Fox News Digital.”

“Hey pal, it’s Dad. It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you have a chance give me a call. Nothing urgent—I just wanted to talk with you,” Biden is heard saying in a voicemail from 2018. “I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear.”

The Media Research Center noted the omission, “The voicemail is a veritable smoking gun but ABC, CBS and NBC have yet to report on the latest bombshell development,” MRC director of media analysis Geoffrey Dickens wrote. “It’s a stunning revelation that ABC, CBS and NBC have yet to air on any of their evening or morning shows, because they are so in the tank for the Biden administration.”

The administration attempted to defend Biden. It failed. “Well, first, I’ll say that what the president said stands,” Press Secretary Jean-Pierre said. “So, if he, if that’s what the president said, that, that is what stands.” When questioned further, Jean-Pierre said she was “not going to talk about alleged materials from the laptop.”

When asked by Peter Doocy if she was denying that it was, in fact, Biden’s voice on the message, Jean-Pierre said: “I’m not going to talk about alleged materials on the laptop.”

“If a press secretary ‘no comments’ a story away, does it make a sound? Apparently not — if the media are compliant enough,” the New York Post’s editorial board wrote, noting that Jean-Pierre declined to talk about “the laptop.”

“Of course she won’t. After all, such stonewalling has worked since October 2020, when Joe and Hunter cast vague aspersions on the New York Post’s laptop reporting without ever denying its authenticity. They knew it was real, but by dropping “alleged” and ‘Russian disinformation!,’ reporters had an excuse to ignore it,” the editorial board wrote. “Of course, this strategy only succeeds if enough of the press cooperates. And true to form, no one from the Times, Politico, CNN, MSNBC, Washington Post, et al. bothered to follow up Doocy’s questions.”
