The media’s role in the Hunter Biden laptop conspiracy theory is a tale of deception and denial. Despite overwhelming evidence of the laptop’s authenticity, major news outlets spread false claims that it was Russian disinformation. These outlets included ABC, NBC, CBS, the Washington Post, and others. The media’s unwillingness to retract these claims or hold those responsible accountable has raised serious questions about their credibility. The laptop conspiracy theory was used as a political weapon against President Trump and his supporters. Now that the laptop has been authenticated, the media must be held accountable for its role in perpetuating a false narrative.
