It’s been exactly one year (October 14, 2020) since the New York Post published damning evidence of Hunter Biden’s corrupt dealings with Ukraine and President Joe Biden’s potential knowledge of his son’s activities.
It’s also been a year of ABC, CBS and NBC evening shows largely censoring the myriad number of Hunter Biden scandals that have been revealed since then.
MRC analysts looked at the broadcast evening news programs from October 14, 2020 to October 13, 2021 and found ABC World News Tonight, CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News spent a measly 18 minutes, 4 seconds on all of Hunter Biden’s scandals in a year’s time.
ABC’s World News Tonight was the most pathetic, spending just 2 minutes, 31 seconds on the First Son’s troubles. CBS Evening News devoted just 7 minutes, 37 seconds to the disgraced son’s problems. NBC Nightly News was also determined to hide Hunter’s scandals, spending only 7 minutes, 56 seconds on him.
The last time Hunter Biden’s name was even uttered on the broadcast evening news was three months ago in a July 12 NBC Nightly News report by Stephanie Gosk about Hunter Biden selling off his “art.”
The nets don’t even have an excuse to say the Hunter Biden story is old and therefore not worth covering.
The hits keep coming.
The following is a look at some of the scandals the evening news COULD be spending their time on, if they weren’t so in the tank for the Biden presidency:
President Joe Biden May Be Dragged Into FBI’s Investigation of Hunter Finances, May Have Even Paid for Son’s Drugs and Prostitutes
On October 12, the Daily Mail reported the following:
President Joe Biden could become embroiled in an FBI investigation of Hunter’s finances, experts say, as emails reveal the father and son shared accounts and paid each other's bills.
Emails recovered by DailyMail.com from Hunter’s abandoned laptop between Hunter and Eric Schwerin, his business partner at consultancy Rosemont Seneca, show Schwerin was working on Joe’s taxes, discussing the father and son paying each other’s household bills, and even fielding requests for a book deal for the then-vice president, as well as managing the donation of Joe's senate papers to the University of Delaware. It is unclear why Schwerin had this intimate role in the vice president's affairs rather than government officials in the Office of the Vice President.
Hunter’s claim that he and his father shared a bank account also raises serious questions whether funds from the alleged joint account were used for Hunter's May 2018 week-long bender with a prostitute in a Hollywood hotel.
Last December, Hunter admitted in a public statement that he was under federal investigation over his tax affairs.
A former federal prosecutor and expert on money laundering and criminal tax law tells DailyMail.com that if money was flowing between Hunter and his father, that could make Joe a target of the probe – but that investigators would have a tough time sitting down with the president.

Art Gallery Showing Hunter’s Pieces Got $500,000 In Federal Loan
On October 9, the New York Post reported the following:
A federal COVID loan to the art gallery repping Hunter Biden more than doubled after his father took office, records show.
The Georges Berges Gallery initially received a $150,000 COVID “disaster assistance loan” from the Small Business Administration last year, according to public records.
But the loan was recently “revised,” with the SBA approving a further $350,000 to the SoHo gallery this summer, records show.
The approval came on July 26, in the lead-up to Berges’ exclusive marketing of 15 paintings by the president’s scandal-scarred son, public records show.
In addition to the COVID disaster assistance loans, the SoHo gallery received nearly $80,000 in two payments in April 2020 and February 2021 under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, funds meant to help businesses keep up with paychecks to employees during the pandemic.
All tolled, $580,000 in taxpayer-funded COVID relief aid was doled out to a gallery with only two employees, according to SBA records.

Hunter Biden Tries to Hook Up His Uncle with China Deal
On October 7, Fox News.com reported the following:
President Biden’s brother-in-law, John Owens, reached out to Hunter Biden in 2014 for help in securing a business license to expand his telemedicine company in China, saying it needed to be “secured very quickly," according to emails obtained by Fox News.
Owens, who goes by Jack, emailed Hunter Biden on May 9, 2014, informing him that his companies, MediGuide America and MediGuide Insurance Services International (MISI), reached a “serious stage” in negotiations with a China-based insurance company, but said he won’t be able to “seal this deal” without a “Chinese Business License.”
“Time pressures are very tight, plus the fact that we do not yet have one has caused a slight credibility bump in the company’s mind. This all translates into a need for a Business License, and one secured very quickly,” Owens wrote. “While this might seem to be a mundane task, I have come to understand that matters such as a Business License can end up taking an inordinate amount of time.....time we just do not have.”Owens continued by saying he would be “most appreciative of any help.” Hunter Biden replied less than a hour later and said, “Working on it-back to you ASAP.” The younger Biden then forwarded Owens’ email to Thornton Group Chairman James Bulger, the nephew of mobster Whitey Bulger and co-founder of the Thornton Group.
He also sent it to Michael Lin, a Taiwanese-American businessman who has worked with the State Legislative Leaders Foundation (SLLF), a nonprofit that has been partnered since 2015 with the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, a propaganda group that pushes Chinese Communist Party (CCP) messaging. Lin and Bulger both arranged Hunter Biden’s first business trip to China in April 2010, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Hunter Biden Sells Paintings for $75,000 a Pop at Los Angeles Art Show
On October 7, the New York Post reported the following:
At least five prints of Hunter Biden’s artwork have already been sold for $75,000 each and a team of lawyers is vetting potential patrons who plan to attend his upcoming gallery show in New York City — which has now been delayed until the spring, The Post has learned.
The Georges Berges Gallery sold the prints before the Oct. 1 opening of a “pop-up” presentation in Los Angeles, a source familiar with the matter said Thursday.
It’s unclear who purchased the reproductions — which cost a fraction of the top price of $500,000 for an original piece by President Biden’s scandal-scarred son — or if any more were sold after the LA show opened.
“But most of those allowed to buy works are long-term, private collectors with the gallery, people that Berges knows personally,” the source said.
Meanwhile, a leading ethics expert told The Post that Biden’s recent schmoozing with attendees at his debut exhibition showed that a White House attempt to prevent influence-peddling by keeping buyers anonymous won’t work….

There was, however, a 2 minute, 16 second mention of the ethical dilemma surrounding Hunter Biden selling art in a July 12 NBC Nightly News report by correspondent Stephanie Gosk. [See below]
Emails Show Hunter Biden Demanded $2 Million to Get His Dad’s White House to Unfreeze Libyan Assets
On September 23, the Daily Mail reported the following:
A pair of emails from business associates of Hunter Biden reveal he offered to help them unfreeze Libyan assets for a $2million retainer plus ‘success fees’, while they also discussed their misgivings over his drug and alcohol use.
The email exchanges were between mid-level Democratic donors Sam Jauhari and Sheikh Mohammed al-Rahbani, who in 2015 were both working on behalf of the new Libyan government to free up $30billion in state foreign assets. They had been frozen by the Obama administration under the deposed Muammar Gaddafi regime in 2011.
The emails are unrelated to those on his laptop, which outlined a number of his other business dealings. The computer was found at a repair shop in Delaware.

Hunter Biden’s Art Show Raises Ethical Questions
On September 23, the New York Post reported the following:
Hunter Biden’s upcoming art show is facing a fresh coat of scrutiny.
The ranking Republican on the House Oversight Committee is demanding the gallery owner hosting the exhibition detail the ethics rules in place to block the identities of the buyers from the White House.
The art show could earn the First Son millions.
Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) sent a letter obtained by The Post to Hunter’s New York art dealer, Georges Berges, insisting that he provide documents about the ethical arrangements worked out with the White House and brief the panel on the potential buyers who attended the opening, and the purchasers of the younger Biden’s work.
“The documents requested from you will inform and are pertinent to our oversight of any attempts to seek improper influence with the Biden Administration by anonymous benefactors, and understanding the process you are purportedly undertaking to shield the Administration from any influence by those procuring Mr. Biden’s art,” Comer wrote in the letter, which was sent on Thursday. “Additionally, your documents and information could inform legislation related to ethics regulations,” the congressman continued. The letter to Berges is a follow-up to one sent on Sept. 7 requesting documents about the sale, in which the novice artist’s works will sell for between $75,000 and $500,000 apiece.”
Total ABC, CBS, NBC evening news coverage: 2 minutes, 16 seconds. The only mention of the ethical dilemma surrounding Hunter Biden’s art show came in a July 12 NBC Nightly News report by correspondent Stephanie Gosk. ABC’s World News Tonight and CBS Evening News have yet to touch the art show scandal.
Freaked Out Hunter Biden Tells Prostitute About ANOTHER Stolen Laptop
On August 11, the Daily Mail reported the following:
Hunter Biden claimed Russians stole another one of his laptops for blackmail while he was close to overdosing in a Las Vegas hotel room, DailyMail.com can reveal.
The alleged incident would mean Hunter lost a total of three computers - the first abandoned at a Delaware computer store and the second seized by federal agents - each likely to hold sensitive information on President Joe Biden and the embarrassing pictures, videos and communications of his son.
The third laptop still appears to be missing – and was taken by Russian drug dealers after they partied with Hunter in Vegas, he told a prostitute in a conversation caught on camera.
After filming himself having sex with the woman using his laptop in January 2019, Hunter left the camera rolling as he recounted a Vegas bender in which he spent “18 days going round from penthouse suite to penthouse suite,” sometimes costing $10,000 a night.
“I spent f***ing crazy amounts of money,” Hunter said. “I was with these guys. The one guy was, not like you anyway… each night he’d be like ‘there’s going to be so many people here, crazy f***ing party’ and each night it’s nobody.”

Hunter Biden Repeatedly Drops the “N” Word
On June 8, the Daily Mail reported the following:
Hunter Biden used the n-word multiple times in conversation with his white, $845-per-hour lawyer, his text messages reveal.
The shocking texts may prove embarrassing for his father President Joe Biden, who just last week gave a speech decrying racism on the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa massacre, and has sought to portray racial justice as a top priority for his administration.
The president's son joked in a January 2019 text to corporate attorney George Mesires about a “big penis”, and said to the lawyer: “I only love you because you’re black’ and ‘true dat n***a”.
In another text a month earlier he wrote to the Chicago lawyer saying: “how much money do I owe you. Becaause (sic) n***a you better not be charging me Hennessy rates.”
Mesires replied: “That made me snarf my coffee.”
Hunter added: “That’s what im saying ni…”, cutting off the racial slur mid-word, then texted a picture to Mesires.

Why Fly Commercial When You Can Fly Air Force One?
On May 22, Alex Marlowe reported the following on Breitbart.com:
According to Secret Service travel records obtained by Judicial Watch, then-Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter took 411 trips across 29 countries between 2009 and the middle of 2014. That includes 23 flights into or out of Joint Base Andrews — home to Air Force One and Air Force Two.
These trips, which shed light on Hunter’s involvement with his father, are revealed in Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption, my new book exploring the corruption that drove the establish media to cover up the Hunter Biden scandal.
Despite this evidence that there was not an “absolute wall” between Hunter and Joe when it comes to business endeavors, the establishment press has shown little interest in exploring whether Hunter was actually leveraging his father’s power to enrich himself.
