We have all long been aware of the reluctance of mainstream news outlets to question any aspect of the Covid vaccination programme. It should be a matter of gravest concern for us all, though, if that reluctance extends beyond opinion and comment pieces, to include the reporting of a verifiable public-source news item concerning the fundamental ethical basis for a pharmaceutical intervention impacting millions. And doubly so when it implicates — as in this case — our children.

I Fact-Checked the “Fact-Checkers”

Bobbie Anne Flower Cox / December 4, 2023 / Government, Law, Media / 8 minute read

We provided a joint statement to the author, which she completely ignored, and then went on to write an article that assumes you are so ignorant, that you don’t realize their double play on words, nor do you see the wool they’re pulling over your eyes.

The Federal Government Paid Media Outlets to Promote the Covid Vaccine

Rav Arora / December 4, 2023 / Government, Media, Vaccines / 7 minute read

The last standing bulwark against government propaganda and censorship is crumbling before our eyes, losing relevance by the month. Perhaps a solution for media institutions to earn back credibility is to critically cover federal agencies misinforming the public rather than take funds to promote their agendas.

The answer to the question “Will they ever admit to being wrong?” is of course: no. I’m speaking in particular of the architects of the lockdown and mandate policies that wrecked the rights and liberties of billions worldwide.

The New York Times Finally Admits to the Harm Done to Children

Jennifer Sey / November 22, 2023 / Education, Media, Policy / 7 minute read

If a normie like me could read and interpret the data available since March 2020 and know that not only would closed schools be incredibly harmful to the most vulnerable children, but that their risk from Covid was thousands of times less than an elderly person, then certainly the science desk at the New York Times should have been able to do so.

Javier Milei’s Battle Cry for the People

Robert Malone / November 21, 2023 / Economics, Government, Media / 14 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Dr. Milei is basically an intellectual academic who became a truth warrior in response to the damage he saw being done to his country by a parasitic administrative state. In other words, he is yet another intellectual critic who is mad as hell and not going to take it anymore.

Witnessing the Media’s Covid Coverage from the Inside

Gabrielle Bauer / November 17, 2023 / Media, Society / 7 minute read

Covid media, like so much else in modern life, has become hopelessly fractured: the tall, left-facing trees dominate the landscape, telling the story of a deadly virus that we “did the best we could” to manage. Below the tree canopy lies the tangle of weeds that sway in the wind, whispering songs of freedom and warning against the totalitarian impulses that all too readily emerge during crises

I will never get my reputation back as it once was. However, I will not give up fighting for our freedoms, whether it be to bring back integrity to the FDA, CDC, NIH, DoD and HHS or whether it be reining-in the intelligence agency. We all must continue to bring our government to heal.

Explaining the Nocebo Effect, Emotional Contagion, and Mass Hysteria

Steve Templeton / November 6, 2023 / History, Media, Society / 8 minute read

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Even if the disease itself is not mild, a pandemic wave through a population tends to reduce local stress and anxiety and focuses people on a singular goal. This has been called the “typhoon eye effect,” reported during outbreaks of SARS, people closer to the pandemic were less anxious and more able to accurately estimate their own risks. Conversely, those on the periphery or outside the outbreaks, who received their information from media sources rather than personal experience reported increased anxiety and distress. There’s nothing more effective than having your irrational fears debunked firsthand.
