The NY Post did its scoop in November before the election, and Twitter promptly suppressed the NY Post and the story based on their "hacked materials" policy. This was complete BS -- no one seriously thought that the materials were hacked. It was a pretense. But they got away with it. It was genuine election interference. But that's just Big Tech. Surely the other reputable news organizations would set things straight. Nope. All the organizations that most HN users seem to think are trustworthy and reputable, i.e. the New York Times, Washington Post, Guardian, BBC, CNN, NPR, etc -- they all helped bury the story. The NY Post's story has been comprehensively vindicated, but there's been no reckoning as far as I can tell against the organizations that hid the truth. HN users go back again and again to those same sources, quote from those sources, get their understanding of the world from those same sources.
