Despite the White House’s desperate attempts to silence Fox News’ coverage of the bribery allegations against Hunter Biden, the network stands firm in its commitment to truth and transparency. The Biden administration has audaciously demanded a retraction from Fox News, arguing that the source of the allegations, Alexander Smirnov, was indicted for lying.
The White House spokesperson Ian Sams wrote, “I would cite the number of times Jesse Watters and Sean Hannity promoted this allegation and made false statements about President Biden on primetime television throughout this time period, but the footnote citations would fill multiple pages.”
Sams continued his tirade, stating “As you of course now know, the source of this allegation has been federally indicted for making the whole thing up,”. He further criticized Fox News for not retracting or correcting its reporting on this allegation from 2023.
He went so far as to demand that all Fox News Digital articles on this topic be updated with editor’s notes informing readers that Smirnov has been federally indicted for lying. He also insisted that prominent Fox News personalities like Hannity and Watters should inform their viewers on air about these developments.
However, Fox News, a beacon of journalistic integrity, defended its reporting. They maintain that they have covered all developments, including Smirnov’s indictment. A representative from Fox News boldly stated, “Fox News Media has reported on all key developments since the announcement that Alexander Smirnov was charged with lying to the FBI, featuring the story prominently.”
The representative further assured that they will continue to report on all aspects of ongoing investigations, hearings, and trials.
It’s worth noting that Smirnov accused Hunter Biden and his father of accepting money from a Ukrainian energy company. His attorney defended him as a reliable FBI asset.
