The media Praetorian Guards are throwing up defenses faster than Bobby Knight hurled insults.<\/p>\n<p>One day, The Post is accused of spreading Russian disinformation for reporting on e-mails contained on a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden. The next day, the paper is accused of being cruel because Hunter has obvious dependency and psychological issues.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s next \u2014 that poor Joe Biden was duped into getting involved in Hunter\u2019s deals because of early-stage dementia?<\/p>\n<p>Oops, can\u2019t go there, at least not yet. That has to wait until he\u2019s sitting in the White House and Donald Trump is banished. Then it will be safe to let the facts come out.<\/p>\n<p>Any port in a storm sailors say, and that\u2019s what we\u2019re witnessing as Big Media and Big Tech unite to protect Joe Biden, a k a the \u201cBig Guy,\u201d from anything resembling the truth. Their desperation is extraordinary when you remember that neither of the Bidens has claimed the laptop and devastating e-mails are fakes. So why is the media making those claims and tech using that as an excuse to censor The Post\u2019s reports?<\/p>\n<p>The usual suspects \u2014 The New York Times, CNN and The Washington Post \u2014 are shooting the messenger instead of doing their own reporting. If they were even modestly curious, they would learn that Joe Biden was helping his family get rich for years and even participated in setting up plans to partner with a Chinese firm in acquiring American infrastructure projects. That was the deal where Hunter, in e-mails and reportedly in other communications, referred to his father as \u201cthe big guy\u201d and \u201cthe chairman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Protecting Biden while depriving Americans of the truth would seem to be an odd position for reporters, editors and social-media masters who profit from controversy and preen that they have a public trust. \u201cDemocracy dies in darkness\u201d the Washington Post says even as it refuses to shine a spotlight on the Bidens\u2019 scams.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Washington political reporters have an inglorious history of hiding inconvenient truths about presidents. The agreement not to photograph FDR\u2019s crippled legs is one example, the refusal to report the many White House affairs of JFK is another.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16486312\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-nypost-large-desktop-uncropped wp-image-16486312 lazyload\" alt=\"The Post expos\u00e9 on Hunter Biden sheds light on how deceiving and corrupt the Obama administration really was \u2014 the liberal media will never admit. \" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/ObamaBiden.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/ObamaBiden.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/ObamaBiden.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/ObamaBiden.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=662 662w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/ObamaBiden.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1324 1324w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>The Post expos\u00e9 on Hunter Biden sheds light on how deceiving and corrupt the Obama administration really was \u2014 the liberal media will never admit.<\/span><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>All that supposedly ended with Watergate. Afterward, every reporter in America grew up wanting to bring down a president, preferably a Republican one.<\/p>\n<p>Until Barack Obama came along. What can only be described as a tacit agreement among White House reporters and their bosses prohibited any serious inquiries that would damage their favorite president. The see-no-evil cloak would lead Obama to delude himself into boasting that \u201cWe\u2019re probably the first administration in modern history that hasn\u2019t had a major scandal in the White House.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That was never true but a scandal without the press spreading the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> is like a tree falling in the forest. If nobody hears it, did it really fall?<\/p>\n<p>In that vein, consider a 2014 scene from the White House briefing room, when ABC\u2019s Jonathan Karl ever-so-politely asked then-press secretary Jay Carney whether Hunter Biden\u2019s seat on the board of Ukranian energy company Burisma amounted to a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly prepared for the question, Carney replied that \u201cHunter Biden and other members of the Biden family are obviously private citizens, and where they work does not reflect an endorsement by the administration or by the vice president or president.\u201d He then referred Karl to the vice president\u2019s office. There the story died.<\/p>\n<p>But we now know Carney\u2019s answer was false, at least the claim that Hunter\u2019s role wasn\u2019t an endorsement by the vice president. Imagine if Karl had used some of that snarling energy he unleashes at the Trump administration every day to plow through the smokescreen.<\/p>\n<p>He might have broken the story six years ago about Hunter Biden\u2019s worldwide influence-peddling that The Post and others are now revealing. Karl might have discovered then that the vice president was not only aware of his son\u2019s grifting, but was also using his office to help his son\u2019s business. He might also have learned about the windfall that Jim Biden, Joe\u2019s brother, got from government connections.<\/p>\n<p>In that case, Obama would have had to amend his scandal-free boast to say \u201cwith the exception of my crooked vice president.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The lack of curiosity that Karl displayed in 2014 is the same somnolence that he and his ilk have about Biden\u2019s frequent absences from the campaign trail.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if Trump had called a \u201clid\u201d on four consecutive days, as Biden did this week, ostensibly to prepare for Thursday\u2019s debate.<\/p>\n<p>That will make five days out of the last six when the Democrats\u2019 nominee hasn\u2019t made public <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earances or answered questions. Hillary Clinton was a workhorse by comparison.<\/p>\n<p>Then again, the debate is not likely to be difficult for Biden. Count on biased moderator Kristen Welker of NBC and MSNBC to grill the president with hostility while feeding Biden soft questions.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019ll ask Trump, for the umpteenth time, if he believes in climate change and demand he denounce white supremacists. She\u2019ll steer clear of his economic and foreign policy success lest she be seen as helping him.<\/p>\n<p>If she asks Biden about his son\u2019s business interests, he\u2019ll deny any knowledge and she\u2019ll let him get away with it.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll be delighted if she proves me wrong.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deficit_of_real_action\"><\/span>Deficit of real action<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Eight months after the city and state March lockdown began that cratered ridership, the MTA is now getting around to consolidating its offices. Well, \u201cnow\u201d is a stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Not until next June will the agency empty out two offices and relocate staff to its lower Manhattan headquarters.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the rush?<\/p>\n<p>Even that pokey pace puts the agency ahead of City Hall. Mayor de\u2009Blasio often warns of layoffs, but has taken no significant action to reduce the headcount that bloated under his watch. His biggest deal resulted in an additional $900\u2009million payment to the teachers union, half now and half later.<\/p>\n<p>Everybody is waiting on a federal bailout, but there might be more bipartisan support if city and MTA officials started to do what they can to trim mounting deficits. Instead, they sit on their hands and demand help, which is not a persuasive argument.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Not_letting_Cuomo_slide\"><\/span>Not letting Cuomo slide<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Gov.
