New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman suggested to CNN on Monday that the reason the media did not treat claims seriously that the coronavirus pandemic originated from a lab accident at the Wuhan Institute of Virology was because the information was coming from the Trump administration.

“I do think it’s important to remember that part of this issue when this was first being reported on and discussed back a few months after the pandemic had begun was that then President Trump and Mike Pompeo the Secretary of State both suggested they had seen evidence that this was formed in a lab and they also suggested it was not released on purpose, but they refused to release the evidence showing what it was,” Haberman told CNN’s “New Day” on Monday.
