crazy Joe Biden Brags about getting Ukranian Prosecutor Fired
Neither Secret Empires nor Schweizer’s op-ed attack Biden on this point, yet the campaign appears to believe so.
“This debunked theory speculates that then Vice-President Biden somehow did anything reportedly inappropriate in successfully ridding Ukraine of a corrupt prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who the Times itself thoroughly explained at the time was derelict and the target of an international effort for removal,” Bedingfield wrote.
“What was especially troubling about the Times’s active participation in this smear campaign is that prior to its reporting on the subject by Ken Vogel, this conspiracy had been relegated to the likes of Breitbart, Russia propaganda, and another conspiracy theorist, regular Hannity guest John Solomon,” she argued.
Bedingfield accused the Times of unfairly covering Biden.
“This leaves us with a critical question: are you truly blind to what you got wrong in 2016, or are you deliberately continuing policies that distort reality for the sake of controversy and the clicks that accompany it?” she asked, ultimately demanding that the Times “publicly answer for these failures in reporting on this pressing issue fairly” and calling for a “public editor” at the paper.
