So much for the Hunter Biden scandals being “Russian disinformation” as CNN has told their dwindling viewership since the 2020 presidential election. On Sunday’s Sources of reliability on CNN, host Brian Stelter shocked viewers during his interview with First Lady Jill Biden’s press secretary Michael LaRosa by not only admitting Hunter Biden’s many scandals and alleged crimes are real but that they aren’t just “a right-wing media story.”
After laughing it up with LaRosa about how the First Lady doesn’t know where to find Fox News on her television dial, Stelter asked a real question: “What about Hunter? Hunter is currently under investigation by the federal government. Charges could come at any moment. This isn’t a left-wing media story. The Bidens have a problem. Could he decide not to run for re-election given his son?”

LaRosa opted to ignore the Hunter question and focus instead on the question whether President Biden will seek reelection for the office in 2024. “They [the Bidens]Make decisions together as a family. And they will make that decision when it’s time,” LaRosa claimed.
Stelter responded by asking if he thinks “they’ve talked about it yet.” LaRosa scoffed “the President’s doing his job. He’s doing his work. He doesn’t focus on it. It’s 19 months. Why would he be doing that?”
Responding to Stelter’s next question of whether the press is getting ahead of itself, LaRosa claimed that are “way ahead.” Adding that “there’s more work to do. It’s been 19 years. Like I stated, he intends to run. But I think the focus should be from the press on how what he is doing is affecting people out in the country.”
The fact that Stelter brought up Hunter Biden shows how much of a liability the President’s delinquent son is to the Biden administration. The media can only hide scandals like this for so long before it becomes glaringly obvious that they’re ignoring it.
Flashback to October 2020, only weeks prior to the November 2020 presidential election, Stelter proclaimed that the Hunter Biden story was a “manufactured scandal” intended to smear the Biden campaign.

Eastern, 11:12:45BRIAN STELTER – What do you think about Hunter? Hunter, who is under federal investigation. Charges could come at any given moment. This is not a story for right-leaning media. The Bidens have a problem. Given his son, could he make a decision not to stand for re-election?
MICHAEL LAROSA (MICHAEL LAROSA): As a family, they take decisions. When it is time, they’ll make the decision.
STELTER: Are you sure they haven’t discussed it yet?
LAROSA: No. The President’s doing his job. He’s doing his work. He doesn’t focus on it. It’s 19 months. He would never do that.
STELTER: Okay so you’re saying the press is getting ahead of—
LAROSA: Way ahead, way ahead. It’s clear that there is still more to do. It’s been 19 years. As I mentioned, he plans to run. The focus of the media should shift to how what he’s doing affects people across the country. These are all things Democrats wanted to do for years, but it has been amazing to watch a president rack up such substantive wins, as your anchors noted over the past year.
