The New York Times released a report on the “sexual assault” allegations facing presidential candidate Joe Biden. In the report, they stated they could not find any evidence of wrongdoing despite many women saying that they felt uncomfortable by his “hugs, kisses, and touching.”
The Times quickly removed the reference to the “hugs, kisses, and touching.”
According to The Daily Wire:
The New York Times stealthily edited an article on a sexual assault allegation against former Vice President Joe Biden, deleting a reference to “hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable.”
Just minutes after the Times published a piece about allegations from former Biden Senate staffer Tara Reade on Sunday morning, an editor slipped into the story and removed a key paragraph about other women – seven in all – who say Biden touched them inappropriately, Fox News reported on Sunday.
According to a copy of the Times’ article saved by the Internet archive Wayback Machine, the Times originally reported: “No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable.”
That paragraph now reads: “No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden.”
The times mostly dismiss Reade’s allegations despite specific time, place, and manner details. This was not the case for the accuser of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The Times believed her allegations despite her lack of corroborating evidence, and the time, place, and manner, details not being able to be remembered by anyone who she mentioned in her allegations.
Remember the press spent a month essentially arguing that underage drinking was evidence that Kavanaugh committed sexual assault, but a long pattern of “hugs, kisses, and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable” proves Biden’s innocence. pic.twitter.com/CPGr48o8nK
