On Friday, former CNN boss Jeff Zucker was confronted by CNN host Michael Smerconish over media bias. Smerconish challenged Zucker for not covering the scandal surrounding Hunter Biden’s laptop. Zucker and Smerconish were also joined by Phil Griffin, the former head of MSNBC.

Zucker said this: “Well, I mean, I think I think we, the question is, we did deal with it. But to the degree that, you know, you would have thought was appropriate, I think the answer is in the final two weeks, you know, it was looked at. We did not know enough about it.” Griffin similarly argued that MSNBC didn’t cover it because Hunter Biden “was never arrested. The Justice Department was looking into it, never reported it until he is the son of a candidate. I don’t think it’s a main story until that happens.”
