Good journalists, at least ones with integrity, don't report on rumor and innuendo, but on stories verified and substantiated.

It is entirely possible that Tucker Carlson had been told what was in the documents but was holding off on reporting on what was in them until he or his producer had a chance to personally review them. Or, perhaps he only had a vague overview of what was in them, and not specific detail. They were sent to FOX HQ in Manhattan while he and his producer were in LA preparing for the Bobulinski interview so he requested that they be forwarded to his current location. Perhaps they might have been relevant to the Bobulinski interview, in which case he may have wanted to review them as the info contained within may have influenced what questions during the interview to ask...or, would lead to follow-up questions at a later time.

I don't regularly watch Carlson, but it is entirely possible that he followed the typical entertainment/ news industry practice of teasing the info in the documents before they were actually in hand.

How many times has this crap happened since 2016? All of stories of Hillary's emails and any day now the shits gonna hit the fan. This is it guys, the bombshell we've been waiting for! Uh, no...that's not it, wait there's another one! This is the big one! Over and over we get played. All of this evidence but somehow just bits and pieces of it ever get released. Can't someone just anonymously leak the whole hard drive onto the internet or at least all of the emails? If there was anything worse than what we've seen it would already be out there and being used against Biden.

He did NOT! He went with what he had for the Bobulinski interview, and reported on the 'Vanishing Documents' the following day. He made NO reference to what was contained in the documents other than it was 'Damning Evidence'.

Ok, thanks. My comment was based on the description of the coverage by lastmanstanding.

Now it appears there are copies.

Seems Fox is playing a bit coy with this thing. If they have copies why not outright say so and why not tell us what this is all about. They are shaking the ratings tree on this one imo.

Why in the world would anyone be surprised by this? This whole story smells like a bunch of wishful fabricated bullshit if you take away the emotion of wanting it all to be true.

I'm interested to know what info is in the docs., but, honestly, just the fact that they were apparently stolen in such a manner indicates that they were important enough for someone to go to great lengths and take great risks to obtain them. That is a story in itself...or, maybe this is an "Where Eagles Dare" operation.

There's copies of the documents. OAN has the same stuff.

My question is why was it so important that Tucker have the originals in hand? They could have sent them electronically immediately.

I'm interested to know as well. Fox obviously wants to keep the intrigue and suspense building on this which tells me there most likely is not much here that we don't already know. And what would come as a surprise at this point anyhow?

If these documents contained the noose to put around Bidens neck we'd already know about it. If what they have on the lap top isn't enough to even detain Hunter for a little q&a there will never be enough.

Most confusing to me is, why would you open a parcel while in transit and remove the contents? Why wouldn't you just disappear the whole damn thing?

I ask, because the ONLY reason I can think of is that you WANT the shipper/receiver to know it was taken, no?

FTR, does anyone besides people at FOX KNOW these are Tony Bobulinski related documents? Or maybe just more generically Hunter stuff?

That question occurred to me as well. Shipped packages, especially Overnight shipped and tracked packages are repeatedly scanned at various points and locations in the process, documenting the location and time they were there and then later departed. Perhaps whoever opened the package was counting on the shipping employees, often working quickly, to simply miss the package being opened and empty, or perhaps noticing and ignoring it, and simply scanning the package and sending it on. If this is the case then the packaging would continue to be tracked and where/ when it was actually intercepted and the contents removed would be lost for hours, making it more difficult for investigators...that's my best guess.

Not unlike when investigative reporter John Solomon's laptop was stolen from his locked car earlier this year and all other valuables were untouched. The laptop was recovered and forensic investigation indicated that whoever stole the laptop was unsuccessful in their attempt to access the data. Rather than destroying the laptop or throwing it in a dumpster the thief left it in the open in a nearby alley, perhaps to avoid electronic tracking.

Seems reasonable as well.

Rudy Giuliani has copies and is reviewing on Linkedin.

If these docs have any value, we have three days to get them out - today, Friday and Monday. The weekend news cycle is where stuff goes to die, particularly with the criminal old media bastards running that show.

A spokesman for UPS told The Daily Beast on Thursday that they had located a mysterious packaged that Fox News host Tucker Carlson suggested had been deliberately misplaced or intercepted because it contained “damning” materials on the Biden family. “After an extensive search, we have found the contents of the package and are arranging for its return,” the spokesman said. “UPS will always focus first on our customers, and will never stop working to solve issues and make things right.”

Overnight shipping is always best left to Fed Ex it's their forte. Need a package somewhere in 2 or 3 days UPS is who you want.

Seriously? So you feel like Tony Bobulinski is putting himself and his family in danger for just a story? Do you think all those pictures of the emails and texts were fake as well?

I don't know if the story is true or not but Bobulinski seemed pretty credible to me and he had the story, timeline, and hundreds of emails and texts not only in Tuckers hands but in high level government hands as well. I just don't see how he could benefit from this other than clearing his name that the left is trying to smear. Now he and his family have to constantly look over their shoulders and this will also probably hurt his career as well.

Such intrigue. I feel as if Max von Sydow might suddenly appear from around the corner at any moment.
