Hunter Biden's scandalous laptop was falsely dismissed as Russian disinformation weeks before the 2020 election.

A longtime media insider said "the media has disgraced itself" over the past five years .

Hunter Biden , 54 , was convicted in two separate federal cases earlier this year .

The first son was first found guilty in June on three felony charges for federal gun violations and pled guilty in September in a separate felony tax case.

A second well-connected media insider believes it’s fair to say the Biden family drama has been a blind spot in newsrooms.

"Many reporters were wary of touching the family stuff and they missed a central drama of the Biden presidency which doubled as a family tragedy and a love story," the insider said.

Media expert Tobe Berkovitz , a Professor Emeritus at Boston University , doesn’t feel the saga surrounding botched coverage of Hunter Biden's pardon has ruined the media's credibility.
