‘Fake, Republican scandal’: Media Matters ripped for ‘weak ploy’ attempt to smear Herridge’s report on Hunter Biden
April 8, 2022 | Melissa Fine
The self-appointed fact-checkers over at Media Matters for America have set their eyes on CBS News Senior Investigative Correspondent Catherine Herridge for promoting “a fake Republican-driven scandal from when Joe Biden wasn’t even in office,” despite recent confirmations from The New York Times and The Washington Post that the information contained on Hunter Biden’s infamous “laptop from hell” is authentic.
Following a Thursday news segment on “CBS Mornings” in which Herridge, formerly of Fox News, discussed the investigation led by Senators Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Ron Johnson (R-WI) into Hunter Biden’s business dealings, Media Matters blasted Herridge, calling her “a mouthpiece for fake Republican outrage” and accusing her of contributing “to the fabrication of a political scandal.”
At issue for Media Matters is the investigation’s look into business deals made by Hunter and James Biden, President Joe Biden’s brother, in 2017 and 2018 — a time when Donald Trump was President and Joe Biden was out of office.
