Hunter Biden’s latest escapades—joking about launching an OnlyFans account on the “Friends Keep Secrets” podcast with Benny Blanco and Lil Dicky—are being spun by mainstream media as either a benign attempt at humor or a sign of his “resilience.” Let’s be honest: this is emblematic of a far deeper issue. Where’s the hard-hitting journalism demanding accountability?

While Hunter has his fun with comedy kings, CNN and MSNBC seem to have signed off on a narrative that shields him from the serious implications of his past. They focus on the glitz and glam, disregarding a history filled with corruption, scandals, and public service violations. Fox News, on the other hand, relishes in the sensationalism surrounding the Biden family but often falls into a trap of over-sensationalizing instead of using that outrage to foster deeper discussions about systemic issues of nepotism and privilege. It’s frustratingly predictable.

Why are we okay with Hunter’s shenanigans being treated as entertainment? We ought to demand serious conversations about the implications of a high-profile individual making light of his compromised position. The media’s lack of accountability means we’re left with tasteless jokes instead of tough questions about his business dealings and the potential consequences for our political landscape.

It’s time to wake up. Is it really just funny or is it a distraction from far more crucial issues? Let’s not just laugh; let’s hold the guilty accountable.
