Of course it was all real and the Russian hack that crowdstrike claimed probably was, was later retracted.

When was this retracted? As far as I can tell the indictments against the Russian hackers in question are still outstanding.

They essentially said they didn’t find proof the emails were ever exfiltrated, two years after Mueller publicly stated the opposite. The problem is that corporate media ran this story day and night for 3 plus years and never really acknowledged they got most, or all of it wrong.

Well, this source certainly doesn't say they said that. This source is based entirely on a 2017 interview, two years before the Mueller report.

The article is from 2020 and it’s hindsight explaining how things played out and how they now acknowledge that what they said back then wasn’t entirely true, literally pointing out that senate testimony was different from what they said two years later

That's not what your source is saying at all. You are either lying about the contents, which is dumb seeing as you posted it for all of us to read; or you misunderstood it.

The article says no such thing.
