Media downplayed Biden's document scandal and now it's a "sprawling probe

The federal probe of President Joe Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents from his time as vice president “has grown into a sprawling examination of Obama-era security protocols,” ABC News reported this week.

Federal agents have reportedly spent nine months investigating whether Biden illegally stored classified documents in his personal residence in Wilmington, Delaware, and his office at the Penn Biden Center at the University of Pennsylvania. At least 100 witnesses, including Secretary of State Antony Blinken, have been interviewed as part of the probe, ABC reported.

The sprawling investigation is a far cry from what the media predicted when news of the classified documents broke in January 2023. The press was quick to dismiss the incident, compare it favorable to former president Donald Trump’s own document scandal, and accuse Republicans of “pouncing” on a non-story.
