Two former reporters with Politico accused the outlet of suppressing negative stories about former President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden during the 2020 presidential election. They claim Politico was instructed to avoid covering the Hunter Biden laptop story and other unflattering reports. Politico has denied these allegations.
“And I was told this came from on high at Politico: Don’t write about the laptop, don’t talk about the laptop, don’t tweet about the laptop.”, Tara Palmeri and Marc Caputo, recently had a rather candid conversation about how their former employer suppressed negative stories about Hunter Biden and former President Joe Biden.
‘Don’t Write About The Laptop’: Two Former Politico Reporters Allege Outlet Shot Down Negative Stories About Bidens Dozens of former intelligence officials signed an October 2020 letter published by Politico that claimed a bombshell New York Post report about emails from a laptop supposedly abandoned by Hunter Biden “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.
“Correct, they punished The New York Post, that didn’t help. I mean, Politico, my former employer and I knew at the time, didn’t do itself any favors,” said Caputo. “I was covering Biden at the time, and I remember coming to my editor and saying, ‘Hey, we need to write about the Hunter Biden laptop.’ And I was told this came from on high at Politico: Don’t write about the laptop, don’t talk about the laptop, don’t tweet about the laptop.
