Appearing on Friday’s CBS This Morning, 60 Minutes correspondent John Dickerson assured viewers that allegations of corruption against Joe Biden and his son don’t “matter†to voters and even promised that the “news cycle†would make sure to bury the scandal in the final days leading up to the election.
While analyzing Thursday night’s presidential debate, co-host Anthony Mason invited Dickerson to dismiss the topic raised by President Trump: “John, one of the President’s most prominent lines of attack last night was to try to paint Joe Biden as corrupt. He again brought up unverified accusations about Hunter Biden’s financial dealings. How prominent an issue do you think this is for voters? How much do you think it matters?â€
Predictably, Dickerson asserted: “I don’t think it matters a great deal with voters...†He then provided the Biden campaign defense of deflecting the scandal:
..and also, it’s obviously risky for the President, who has, if you use the standard he is using with the Biden family, to look at his own conflicts between his personal business dealings. And also the reporting, again, using the standard he uses for the Biden family, of debts he still owes to foreign entities, you would think this would be ground he would stay off of.
