    Poor rudy will have to find another patsy

    ...it seems the NY Post, after being embarrassed by going public with rudy's baseless claims of presenting Hunter's supposed computer now has a new sense of "mission":

    From----yes it is----the NYT:
    Last month The New York Post called President Trump “an invincible hero, who not only survived every dirty trick the Democrats threw at him, but the Chinese virus as well.” Then it published front-page articles trying to link the contents of a laptop said to belong to Hunter Biden to his father, Joseph R. Biden Jr.

    On Thursday, in a sudden about-face, Rupert Murdoch’s scrappy tabloid published two articles with a wildly different tone. One accused the president of making an “unfounded claim that political foes were trying to steal the election.” The headline on the other described Donald Trump Jr. as the “panic-stricken” author of a “clueless tweet.”

    What happened?

    In short, the president appears to be going down — and The Post is not about to go with him.

    With Mr. Trump headed toward a likely defeat, top editors at the tabloid told some staff members this week to be tougher in their coverage of him, said two Post employees who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe internal discussions.

    In addition to the shift in tone, there will be a change in personnel: Col Allan, the Australian tabloid wizard who was once seen in the Post newsroom wearing a Make America Great Again cap, will call an end to his career of more than 40 years at Murdoch papers in New York and Sydney.

    Mr. Allan, who was The Post’s editor in chief from 2001-16, rejoined the paper as an adviser in January 2019, just as the presidential campaign was underway. Since his return, he has had a strong hand in shaping coverage, several staff members said. He confirmed his planned retirement in an email interview.
    A telling narrative, after playing the part of trump's puppy dog for years, they are now peeing on his rug.

    Should have seen the face of the local Fox news people after Joe was on last night. Really didn't have much to say. Must have taken the wind out of their leading story.
