How Is the Bobulinski Story Not on Every Front Page and Leading Every News Broadcast?

Tuesday night, Tucker Carlson interviewed erstwhile Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski again (the first interview took place just before the 2020 presidential election). The interview lasted a full hour, yielding information indicating an astonishingly compromised president and a dangerously corrupt FBI.

An Internet search for the interview shows that members of the news media who awarded themselves countless prizes for four years of breathless stories about the Russia hoax are — except for those at Fox News and the New York Post — utterly silent about the interview, just as they were regarding the first one.

Several polls indicate that if the story had been known to voters prior to the 2020 election, it could have affected the outcome. But the story was suppressed then just as it is now.

Admittedly, I’ve spent the last 40 years practicing law, not editing newspapers, so I don’t have the exquisitely refined editorial judgment of those who do the latter. But even the most obtuse observer of the passing scene can easily recognize the import of the interview.

Normally, when a story damaging to a Democrat or the progressive narrative escapes into the public domain, mainstream media expend at least some effort to debunk it. Their silence about Bobulinski is itself a story.

The evidence is that we’re living in an age of deep, dangerous, and pervasive corruption, and most of our institutions are either silent, indifferent, or complicit. This cannot end well.
