Clay: Media’s Decision To Ignore Hunter Biden Story Downright Offensive

Videos by OutKick

What do CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post and the New York Times have in common? Well, it’s become pretty evident that all are just left-wing activists merely disguised as organizations that may or may not also deliver news.

For proof, just look at how the mainstream media has completely ignored Hunter Biden’s repeated use of the N-word in text messages sent between 2018 and ’19, OutKick’s Clay Travis said.

“Hunter Biden alleged to have used the N-word, according to his laptop,” Clay said, smiling. “Some of you are probably hearing this, from me, for the first time, because it has not received very much media attention.”

OutKick’s Bobby Burack broached this very topic earlier and wrote, “When the N-word has been uttered by those less coddled than Hunter, the media offers no such grace or common sense.”

Clay seconded that notion.

“I often get criticized because what I want more than anything else, is consistency,” he said. “… What would the media coverage look like if one of Donald Trump’s children had been using the N-word in a text message, and it had gone public and they had been caught doing so?”

Yeah. We all know the answer. We know how the Times, the Post, CNN and MSNBC would cover it. We know someone likely would be banned from social media and cancelled from society. That’s typically the mainstream media way, is it not?

Check out Clay’s full take on this matter in the video below.

  1. Great point Clay is making here and glad he is doing it. But calling out the “media” for being hypocritical falls on deaf ears. Left wing media conglomerates don’t care in general what the logical minded public thinks about them. They just do what they do and nothing changes.
    It might be more impactful if sites like Outkick call out the decision makers working for these companies. For example, who is making the decision at CNN, NBC, ABC, FOX, etc. for not running with this story? Why don’t they want their viewers to know? That is the real story. To point a finger at “the media” is lazy journalism. A handful of people are making these decisions. Who are they?
