You mean one Slate writer who has been vocally anti-Biden all through the primary is not convinced because Biden hasn’t affirmatively proven he didn’t do it.

Fox couldn't resist promoting Eva Murry's abuse claim against Biden last Saturday. But even Fox had to add the disclaimer that Biden wasn't actually at the event where Murry said she met Biden.

And why didn't Fox drop the hysterical attacks on Biden earlier, if they knew all this about Reade? Tucker, why did you wait until tonight?

So much for Fox "news."

Did she ever do an interview with Fox on Sunday? I heard she cancelled on them, too.

She canceled a Fox News Sunday interview with Chris Wallace and also MSNBC said they had something scheduled that she pulled out of.

Um, Fox News is the ONLY network that is willing to discuss both sides of a flimsy rape accusation. See Tucker Carlson’s segment tonight. CNN et al would never in a million years air a segment suggesting that maybe something is fishy when an accuser has so many holes in their story - especially if they are accusing a conservative.

What I want to know is why the mainstream media treated Reade with kid gloves.

I'm guessing this was actually out of respect for women. Because the Post and The NY Times didn't want to rule out any woman's story without waiting longer for the facts. They wanted to give their readers a chance to "listen to women" instead of shutting Reade down by exposing what they already knew.

Much of what's below has been known for at least a week among journalists familiar with the story. Fox undoubtedly knew. Fox, of course, continued to promote Reade's story hysterically (and the stupid Eva Murry claim on Saturday).

The NY Times or the WaPo could easily have put all this together for their readers, but they didn't; instead, the mainstream media sat on their hands.
- AP contacted 21 of Reade’s Senate coworkers, including 3 Reade said she told about the abuse, several weeks ago. All 21 denied knowing about it and the chief of staff issued a sharp rebuttal.

- WaPo contract all 5 of the people Reade said could corroborate her story, again weeks ago. 3 denied knowing about it, one confirmed shoulder rubbing but not the fingers, and the fifth confirmed but refused to go on the record.

- Reade's brother initially said he only knew about the shoulder massage. He later changed his story.

- Reade's own changing story, her baffling tweets of support for Biden's role championing women, et cetera.

- A grab bag of Reade's history of multiple sexual and racial (against her as a white woman) harassment claims, defrauding the horse charity, multiple GoFundMes she set up to grift money, lying during her bankruptcy filing. And a variety of bizarre and unnecessary lies (her journalist/PR father was a "powerful defense contractor" and she was a junior Olympic skier in an era when that didn't exist).

To me, the "liberal mainstream media" LISTENED TO WOMEN by holding all this information back instead of publishing a devastating piece. Fox gets no credit, in my book, for shrieking about Reade when they undoubtedly knew all this too.

BS. Fox new for at least a week that AP, the WaPo and others couldn't corroborate Reade's story and that tons of holes had been poked in it. Yet Fox kept screaming about Reade, regardless. (Just like they pushed Murry but had to cop to the caveat that Biden wasn't even there.) Tucker gets absolutely zero credit for his lame, half-a$$ed and self-serving (I watched your link) spiel that comes so late in the game.

The real heroes, IMO, are the mainstream media. They knew all this for a while and held back. Why? Because they wanted to listen to women. But stop pretending to be surprised that the mainstream media didn't promote Reade to the hysterical heights that Fox did, knowing what they've known for at least a week.

They should be believed if their account is believable. If a woman says your house is on fire and you can see it's not, it doesn't mean you have to call 911.

You are full of it. Own it.

Say the one who voted for the pu$$y-grabber.

Biden? He is a p@ssy grabber.

It is hard to imagine that he was able to reach up her skirt and inside pantyhose far enough to penetrate. Especially while standing up in a hallway where someone could have walked by at anytime.

This post reeks of desperation.

Haha. Do you think you "won" the thread with this? Catch up, you're way behind.

Who would have the courage to go up against Biden? Little, powerless interns and junior staffers? Even now? See how the media and Dems are going after Reade.

Trying to verify a story is not "going after"

Umm, okay.

It's not, you fcking maroon. That's how reporting and vetting works.

Did you mean moron???? How ironic. 😂

Sad day for all of us Bugs Bunny fans.

Speaking of hysterical ^^^. To actually call the hypocritical MSM “heroes” in any capacity is unbelievably tone deaf. But hey, you do you.

Hysterical.
No, they held back because they were hoping it would go away. But, it didn't.

Please. They knew it would go away because they knew about all the holes, shifting stories, and that her corroborators wouldn’t corroborate. Fox absolutely knew all this too. Yet Fox corruptly pushed her story despite all the flaws while mainstream media sat on their hands without publishing what they knew. Why?

If I were the Biden campaign, I'd sue Fox for pushing this story so hard and not publishing any of the evidence against it. I'd also sue the Bernie bloggers.

Maybe that's why Tucker came out with his too-little-too-late "clarification" last night?
