[QUOTE="tall73, post: 75435220, member: 125574"] [URL='https://www.businessinsider.com/new-york-post-may-have-identified-hunter-biden-source-2020-10']The New York Post inadvertently revealed the original source of its dubious Hunter Biden story[/URL] This story notes that it was the screenshots from the subpoena for the computer that allowed news outlets to track down the particular shop and owner. The Post inadvertently revealed his identity through the screenshots.
