The Washington Examiner’s Sarah Bedford broke down the narratives surrounding Hunter Biden coming from the media on the Left.
Bedford explained during a segment of Fox News’s Evening Edit that the focus on Biden’s most “sympathy-inducing” facts, such as “his struggles with addiction” and “the loss the Biden family has experienced over the past few years,” is purposeful.
HUNTER BIDEN INVESTIGATION: JOE BIDEN’S PSEUDONYMS HID UKRAINE-RELATED MESSAGES INVOLVING SON
“That’s all they really want to talk about,” Bedford said of Democratic media pundits. She went on to say that reports were “designed to focus on the relatable part of this whole situation, right?”
Beford’s recent reporting included the revelation of how President Joe Biden’s use of multiple pseudonyms during his vice presidency appears to have hidden some of his communications from that period, including some involving Ukraine policy and his son. Hunter Biden’s business practices, according to the investigative reporter, arouse “some of the most relevant questions.”
“There’s really very few legitimate reasons why you would structure a business the way that Hunter Biden and his brother, James Biden, did while Joe Biden was vice president. They had more than 20 shell companies, and the vast majority were create after Joe Biden became vice president to funnel money that Hunter Biden often didn’t even pay taxes on,” Bedford said. “He’s not faced real consequences for that, and you’ll notice that the White House and Democrats have stopped really trying to defend Hunter Biden’s work on the merits of what he was doing.”

Hunter Biden was set to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges and enter into a pretrial diversion agreement to avoid a felony gun charge following a nearly five-year federal investigation, but questions from a judge in July about what she called “unusual” provisions of the deal resulted in it unraveling.
Now, Hunter Biden may be headed for trial depending on how special counsel David Weiss proceeds with prosecuting him. His attorney has already made clear that he is only willing to plead guilty to the two original charges and would plead not guilty otherwise.
