The most listened-to podcast in the west got onto the topic of Hunter Biden’s laptop and it’s not going to please the media, as the topic Joe Rogan wanted to focus in on wasn’t its contents but the willingness of the media to do everything it could to either dismiss it or ignore it.
Rogan, a former CIA officer covering operations, was talking to Mike Baker on an episode of Joe Rogan Experience. Baker noted that journalists love a good story. Rogan responded with a wise comment.
“They don’t just love a good story. They love a narrative, and they’re willing to ignore facts to push that narrative. That’s what scares me,” Rogan said.
“There’s real solid journalists out there,” Rogan said of the mainstream news outlets, “but I don’t necessarily know if you’re getting all the information.”
Baker couldn’t help but laugh knowingly.
“You’re not sure?” he asked while Rogan continued.
“I think it’s safe to say that some f***ery is afoot,” said Rogan.
“The New York Times, just now, is admitting that the Hunter Biden laptop is real. And, we remember from the debates, with Trump bringing it up to Biden, and Biden saying, ‘It’s bulls**t.’ And it’s a lie, a flat-out lie. Everybody knew it was a lie,” continued Rogan.
Rogan has it right. Rogan is correct. They will, for example, rush to prove that Donald Trump was under the direct and paid supervision of Russians. This could lead to impeachment hearings being held in Washington, and leading entire media circuses without much evidence.
However, if the media isn’t flat-out ignoring the laptop story they’re attempting to convince people that it’s a Russian fabrication. RedState reported on Sunday that the New York Times was forced to admit that the Laptop Story broke by the New York Post had been true. The New York Times and Adam Schiff, among others, tried to make the claim that the Russians were plotting to destroy the Biden clan.
The Biden family doesn’t need to rely on Russian plots. They’re good at ruining themselves.
In terms of media credibility, this is damning, but as Baker and Rogan noted, you’ll get no apologies from them.
One should not expect it. As far as the media is concerned, they’ve done their jobs, just not the job we expect them to do. Their job is to help the left’s agenda. Period. They are concerned about facts and actual news.
