Politico has not responded to requests to change its headline from October 2020, which falsely implied that The New York Post's reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation. The headline was based on a letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials, including Antony Blinken, now Secretary of State, who reached out to former acting CIA Director Michael Morell to organize the letter. Morell testified that the letter was used to help Joe Biden by deflecting accusations about his involvement in overseas influence-peddling schemes. The authenticity of the laptop has since been confirmed by multiple news outlets.
