Reports suggest major news outlets downplayed issues surrounding President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Critics argue the media shielded Biden from negative coverage, particularly regarding his family’s financial dealings and cognitive concerns.

Former Politico reporter Marc Caputo revealed his 2019 report on Hunter Biden’s tax lien was shelved without explanation. He also claimed Politico and CNN actively avoided covering Hunter Biden’s laptop story before the 2020 election, reinforcing allegations of media bias.

Critics believe this suppression extended to Biden’s health, with reports of cognitive decline ignored by mainstream outlets. Concerns over his public demeanor and energy levels were reportedly observed but not widely discussed.

These revelations fuel debate over media integrity and public trust. While some defend strict editorial standards, others argue the press has prioritized political protection over transparency, shaping public perception and political outcomes.
