Here’s A Taste Of What CBS News Had On The Bidens — And Delayed Or Didn’t Report At All

 Former CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge revealed just a taste of what her former network had on Hunter Biden and his father, President Joe Biden, prior to the 2022 midterm elections — and she said that much of the information was either reported after an intentional delay or scrapped altogether.

Herridge, who left Fox News for CBS in 2019 and was subsequently let go by CBS in early 2024, had done some serious digging on the Bidens and specifically on the now-infamous laptop that Hunter left behind at a Delaware repair shop — but much of what she found she now says that CBS would not let her report.

Herridge explained in a brief video posted to X on Monday that her first goal had been to get as close to the primary source as humanly possible. “I wanted the cleanest copy of the laptop data, the same data that was provided to the FBI,” she said.

She went on to say that CBS had finally allowed a story verifying that the laptop was real and the data on it had not been manipulated — but that the network had not wanted to go ahead with the story prior to the 2022 midterm elections even though she had it ready to go.

“When we did the story, we did it after the midterms. I argued against that because it was ready before the midterms,” she said. “My training is that you should always do the story when it’s ready to go, you should not be dictated by the political cycle.”

 

Herridge then detailed a few other items of interest she’d found while studying the laptop data — and said that CBS had been uninterested in pursuing the leads she presented.

“For example, in the text messages, there’s unfortunately the use of the ‘N-word,’ the liberal use of the ‘N-word.’ And I thought this was worth another story but I was told that it’s not something that interested CBS News,” she said.

Herridge also noted that during a forensic review of the laptop, she’d found “half a dozen emails that were likely used by Joe Biden.”

“I thought that was a story,” she said, but CBS was unwilling to move on that without the contents of those emails — which could have taken years to get.
