Wow, nice "people are saying" play. Every single time the laptop story comes up it's in a butthurt way that is hilariously selective in its indignation.
Misinformation/disinformation is a thing and is not considered healthy for discourse. It also seems to be willingly embraced when it serves one's biases. Pity.
The laptop story would not have survived for two plus years were it not for the fact that Twitter and facebook both took unprecedented steps to censor it. Like literally... if you want something relegated to ignominy, don't do what facebook and twitter did.
Plus, at the time of the censorship, facebook and twitter claimed that the misinformation was that the laptop did not belong to Mr Biden. At this point, every news outlet of repute has admitted the laptop belongs to Hunter.

The stupid laptop being a Russian forgery was misinformation/disinformation that affected an election. The NYT and WaPo have faced up to it by now, but middle-aged extreme partisans will post "cope" like they're millennials from 2015.
