As this editor always says, fake news isn't always lies that are published — also keep a lookout for stories that the mainstream media just doesn't touch (and the ones it does, like Justice Samuel Alito's flag). There's no greater example in recently history than the censoring of the New York Post's story on Hunter Biden's laptop. Social media platforms refused to link to it. Twitter locked the New York Post out of its account for six weeks because it wouldn't take down the story. The only thing the media would report is that former intelligence officials believed it was Russian disinformation.
MSNBC's Jen Psaki, who once tweeted "No one supports abortion up until birth," is now a journalist, and she takes issue with the idea that campaigns pay off news outlets to overlook certain stories.
Jen Psaki (@jrpsaki) ~ Campaigns do NOT work with media to pay off sources to suppress stories. It is not normal. It does not happen. Am certain democrats and republican from many campaigns will confirm that.

Emma-Jo Morris (@EmmaJoNYC) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} The Biden campaign did that, in collaboration with the CIA, to my stories at the New York Post based on Hunter Biden’s laptop.
pADtrick (@patrickberzai3) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} The Gaza Ministry of Health has reported that @jrpsaki died 56 times from this tweet.
Yeah, and each and every time Circle Back Psucki died in Gaza, it was because the Israelis threw her under the tracks of an IDF tank, don'tcha know!
Wirra (@wirraone) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} When did Psaki find out the laptop was real?
Brian McKeon (@Bbbmckeon) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} She’s an unmitigated liar.
Psucki just can't help herself ... she's a Democrat ... lying is in her DNA.
Sandy (@RightGlockMom) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} This is the silliest thing you've ever claimed.

JWF (@JammieWF) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki}
Jim Muessig (@JimMuessig) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} Sometimes it’s just done for free.
KC (@KCPayTreeIt) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} The fact you are saying this confirms they do.
AdamInHTownTX (Not a Neurologist) (@AdamInHTownTX) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} Democrats don't need to pay off the legacy media. They'll gladly suppress negative stories about them free of charge.
Savannah (@BasedSavannah) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} Why did Democrat Rahm Emanuel do it, then?
Let’s Theorize (@LetsTheorize) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} You’re literally a White House propagandist who went straight to work for the media after resigning. You’re actually last person on the planet to be taken seriously on this issue.
But who actually came up with the idea of getting former intelligence officials to sign that letter calling the laptop disinformation? Why, it was the Biden campaign's Antony Blinken, who's now serving as secretary of state.
Social distancing champ (@LadyGriz) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} This is parody, right? It has to be parody.
Jeremy E. Neuman (@JerOHMee) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} If anybody else had said this, I wouldn't have believed them. But since it's you, I really, REALLY don't believe it.
Cryssie (@CryssieGA) ~ {Replying to @jrpsaki} They don't have to. It's understood what is expected to be considered for future employment.
