Letter to the editor: Why doesn’t media report on Biden blackmail?

Mainstream media claims no bias favoring Democrats. So where are the stories on Joe Biden’s public confession of the Obama administration’s blackmail of Ukraine? Isn’t it relevant given the current impeachment inquiry? Many believe corruption that bold by a wannabe American leader made it President Trump’s civic duty to ask Ukraine to investigate.

The video of President Obama’s smug VP admitting taxpayer-funded bribery ($1 billion to fire a prosecutor) is readily available. Why wasn’t it front-page news in every American newspaper when it happened? Why didn’t the story lead national news broadcasts for weeks? Where were the calls then for impeachment by Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff? And with Biden’s current candidacy, why isn’t the media addressing this now?

Many of us rubes in flyover country know why. It’s the same reason the current impeachment farce (secret testimony, crafted leaks, Schiff preventing questioning of Bidens) isn’t exposed. The same reason Elizabeth Warren’s compulsive lies are ignored, and “Democratic” collusion with Russia during the 2016 election was buried.

But no conservative conjured up Biden sitting onstage, gloating about committing international blackmail authorized by Obama. He did that himself, with arrogant gusto. Media subservient to Democratic masters didn’t report on it.

Legitimate journalism questioning any Trump action is justified, even welcomed. But until readers or viewers see even one front page or lead broadcast story on the confessed, filmed and fully realized coercion of Ukraine by Obama/Biden, the media is not only biased, but corrupt.
