From the Daily Mail: 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.

“I knew the laptop records could be vetted and confirmed. I was confused by what seemed a disconnect between the CBS News division and 60 Minutes,” Herridge wrote in her exclusive report on Sunday, as she voiced her shock over Lesley Stahl dismissing the laptop’s authenticity.

Catherine Herridge was finally able to broadcast her findings proving the laptop was legit in November 2022.
“It took an additional two years for the network to broadcast a forensic review of the Hunter Biden laptop data. I advocated for the report which determined that both the data belonged to Hunter Biden and it had not been tampered with. Our report was broadcast in November 2022, after the midterm elections. I may have more to say about the delay in the future,” Herridge wrote on Sunday.
