Then of course there was the media running with 2020 claims from former intel officials saying stories about Hunter Biden's laptop and its contents were likely part of a Russian misinformation campaign. That was, ironically, a domestic misinformation campaign but the media was happy to play along.
But CBS News hasn't succumbed to any sense of shame because they're still warning about "misinformation" despite their track record. Here's the latest:

Who needs Russia when you have MSNBC, CNN, Washington Post, Atlantic, ABC News, NPR etc. Our own media heads Orwell’s Ministry of Truth. https://t.co/tXamqRB0xy
