I don’t understand. Giuliani said last night on news max interview the laptop contained underage girls on it. How is this not being discussed at the moment? Credible or not credible

Because FOX is run by leftists who want Biden to win.

You can say it's because they are leftist, but they want to independently verify before they make a claim like underaged girls.Even Hannity and Tucker will want more confirmation than a tweet before running with a story where the claims are so significant that you could lose all credibility if it's not true.

Not watching. Won't be watching.



But....I'm sure Suzanne and Paul have instructed them not to talk about it if they want those lucrative paychecks to keep flowing their way.

That is a pretty hot button item to be as cavalier as to say

about.


They have discussed, at length, those things that have been RELEASED (emails, etc). The underage is just alleged at the moment and those pics are not released (good). So, it would really be pretty irresponsible to do more than report "been turned over to police for possible..."

I think that is a wise move

Worried about their image?
Some of their own implicated?
Afraid to show images?
Loss of woke sponsorships?
Fear of lawsuits?
Just not all-in?

Whatcha got?

After all those years of Shepard "Sucking Dan Rather's C*ck" Smith, you'd think that people would understand that there is a HUGE difference between Fox News between 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. (cst) and Fox News between 2:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. (cst)

They are completely f*cking different.

Fox is the media, and like the rest of the media, they can’t stand it when trump calls them out. They hate him as much as msnbc does.

The uncomfortable and outright ickiness of the act make it the kind of thing that no one wants to talk about. Sam Harris had a podcast with a reporter who tried to shine a light on pedophilia in this country, and one of the things they talked a lot about is the difficulty in communicating about the existence of such an evil act. People genuinely didn’t want to hear it; they’d rather just falsely assume it doesn’t exist than being forced to confront that it does. It’s that revolting.

I suspect some of that is going on here as well. The big news outlets might not want to make it an official story until they absolutely have to, which would only happen after a law enforcement agency directly confirmed to the media outlet that said photos/videos exist. This is one of the exceedingly few areas where the MSM doesn’t seem to be okay with using second hand sources

Very, very nice way to say "this element of the story is utterly-unsubstantiated horseshite at this point, and no credible news organization would publish the pipe dreams of a bunch of delusional Trump homers.

We had media push a false narrative without any evidence for three years about Trump Russia collusion. The Hunter laptop story has more verification already than anything we had from Mueller, or Nancy’s kangaroo impeachment trial.

I've not said that, nor have I thought that.


I believe Hunter is irresponsible and low enough to have that on his hard drive. I believe it is important to not have an actual news organization sensationalize this aspect until more is known.

I will not be surprised in the LEAST if Hunter fricking Biden has child porn on a computer.

I’m quite ok with checking and double checking before you start banging the pedo drum.

Monetary compensation for defamation is largely based on the destruction of one's reputation. When your reputation is that of Hunter Biden's, good luck getting more than nominal damages.

It's mind-boggling that some people still don't realize this. And, obtw, regarding the 7PM-10-PM conservative hosts? They are only there because they draw good ratings. Ratings = $$$.

If the Murdoch boys could get the same viewership with some clown like Jessica Tarlov, then Fox would prop up left-wing loons like her on their primetime schedule.

He didn't say the pics of the underage girl was inappropriate that I heard. They are going to avoid it if possible.

Because they need the actual photos.

They don’t want a libel claim without the photos
