2 ex-FBI officials charged with lying about Hunter Biden laptop probe
Two former FBI agents have each been charged with one count of lying to Congress about the investigation into Hunter Biden's laptop.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets center the same charge: two former FBI officials are accused of lying to Congress about their roles in the Hunter Biden laptop probe. CBS News is the most direct, while Fox News adds that they were arrested and says their testimony is coming under scrutiny. The Independent frames the story through the Trump DOJ and, in its extract, uniquely mentions Kash Patel accusing the officials of lying about the bureau’s role and election interference.
