I think they're looking for more pictures of Hunter Biden's biggest asset....

Meanwhile a thing happened
"Jack White Asks Elon Musk How ‘That Free Speech Thing‘ Is Working Out After Kanye West Twitter Suspension Jack White used social media to confront Elon Musk on Friday (Dec. 2) over Kanye West‘s latest pro-Nazi tweet and the billionaire’s seemingly selective views on free speech. “So Elon, how’s that ‘free speech’ thing working out?” the rocker wrote on Instagram in a scathing open letter to the controversial new owner of Twitter. “Oh, I see, so you have to CHOOSE who gets free speech and who doesn’t then? What kind of crybaby liberal suspends someone’s free speech? Hmm….” " Read more here:https://www.msn.com/en-us/music/news...459bb55e980db5

I'm pretty sure that asset has a name. Rhymes with Moe.

Elon Musk slams NY Times for ignoring his exposé of how Twitter censored Hunter Biden laptop - as woke outlets including Washington Post, CBS News and ABC all avoid the story too

That's because there's no story to report. Twitter being a private company they can do what they want with material posted on their platform.

I disagree. There is a story here to report. Just because lefty platforms like NYT and CNN don't report on a subject doesn't mean there is no story. And the way this story, the Hunter Biden laptop, was handled represents one of the worst cases of journalistic malpractice in recent history. This isn't what good journalists do. They don't ignore stories because they don't like the subject matter. Nor do they attack others who are trying to report on a legitimate story. It is sad and shameful behavior from people who claim to be impartial.
From the New York Times mission statement, emphasis mine. Quote:

Sorry I just HAVE to ask
Mostly those who says there's nothing to report. Nothing new. Would you have said the same if it was Donald Trump Jr.'s Laptop ? Would you still have said "because there's no story to report." Markus

What I find ironic in this whole mess is that those who said Twitter as a public company should be allowed to decide what could or could not be posted, are now upset that Twitter is doing the same thing as a private company. |

If there was nothing new? Yes. But Hunter Biden and DTJr. aren't the same thing. Hunter Biden is a private citizen where as DTJr. held official position in the Trump Administration. |

Yes that is the story. A major social networking service conspired with a political campaign to suppress a news story because of their political loyalties. It wasn't illegal and the story was available elsewhere but that doesn't change the fact that it was done. What I can't get by is that now when this story is being revealed for all to see some people are not happy. Kinda funny actually.

Thank you Dowly
Hunter Biden was a privat person, while his father was Vice President under Obama. So how much private was Hunter ? For me it's only what's on this laptop...And this can be read here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter...op_controversy In the end of the wiki page following is written: "Joan Donovan, the research director of the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics, and Public Policy at Harvard University, said that "This is arguably the most well-known story the New York Post has ever published and it endures as a story because it was initially suppressed by social media companies and jeered by politicians and pundits alike" " Markus
