Most of the millions of internet users who turn to Wikipedia for information are unaware that some of the site’s data have been carefully selected by those with means.
Journalist Lee Fang reported Tuesday that in 2014 Hunter Biden hired a consulting firm to alter information written about him on the site. This included deleting information about his ties to the Ukrainian firm Burisma, for which he is now under federal investigation.
Biden asked public relations firm FTI Consulting to also remove information about his ties to disgraced Ponzi scheme artist Allen Stafford, as well as a line about the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) being tied to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
NED is heavily funded by the US government and widely believed to be a CIA front. Since the 1980s the organization has helped orchestrate several regime changes, which involved funding Nicaraguan rebels, financing anti-apartheid efforts in South Africa, and bankrolling the Arab Spring.
