An ousted veteran CBS reporter has written a lengthy expose claiming to reveal details about how the network squashed a Hunter Biden story.
Writing on her newsletter, Catherine Herridge described the broadcaster’s investigation into the laptop as a ‘missed opportunity for CBS News’, suggesting the broadcaster failed to properly report her findings.
Herridge said she told company executives the laptop contained material about ‘a million dollar retainer from a Chinese energy firm’ along with Hunter’s business texts and emails in early October 2020.
But later that month, during a 60 Minutes interview with then-President Trump, correspondent Lesley Stahl said the laptop ‘couldn’t be verified’, according to Herridge. ‘As I watched the broadcast, I felt sick,’ she wrote.
It comes after two IRS whistleblowers sat down with Herridge for an interview and told her they were banned from investigating Joe Biden amid the government’s probe into his son.
