Did these media outlets and the respective named journalists bottle one of the biggest stories in history, potentially one of the
biggest articles since #Watergate and #IranContra? they were both given the chance to run the #thehill UFO #whistleblower article and they both turned it down, if this is correct and this is what I have been told did happen, these guys and those media organisations need to be
Those of you still laboring under the illusion that Western democracies and their media are "free" need to wake up. Western states decide what can and cannot be talked about - not through forced censorship, but through ownership. (1/n) #ohiotrainderailment #OhioChernobyl A đ§”
The way it works is that politicians are elected via expensive election campaigns requiring huge corporate sponsorship. So they are beholden to big corporates for their survival. The same big corporates own the press. (2/n)
So the big corporates tell politicians (whom they own) what to do and they then tell the press (which they own) to run stories that support the things that the politicians do at their bidding. The system works smoothly and nobody is the wiser. (3/n)

After 6-years of propagandizing the us with RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, the Washington Post just released a story stating the Russian bot narrative wasnât real. It must just be a coincidence the new #TwitterFiles drop is about Russian bot disinformation. đ€·ââïžđ€ #WaPo @elonmusk

If you believe that the West is about to embark on (another) clash of âgood v evilâ, on which the fate of the world depends, itâs likely because you assume what you read in papers like the NYT and WaPo is unbiased.

There was once a great paper called the New York Times. It was the first to cover the huge story that the Vietnam War was âa lieâ, and the US Govt knew it was a lie.
Itâs editors and staff risked jail to bring people the truth.
Unfortunately it died.

Working for the New York Times was a journalist called Neil Sheehan. He spent ten years writing a book that won a Pulitzer.
It was called âA Bright Shining Lieâ.
Can you guess what it was about?
Neil Sheehan would not be welcome at the Times today.
Heâd be in jail.

And of the one or two claims that do make it in, there is no hint whatsoever that the claims might be false.
The CDC has stated that the vaccinated can catch and spread the disease, e.g., but Kaganâs statement to the contrary is not challenged.

Another egregious example is in this Vox story; vox.com/2022/1/7/22871âŠ. The #Biden administration apparently claims that covid is more deadly than smallpox, yellow fever, or cholera. That is complete nonsense, unbelievably wrong.
The #WaPo has a decent review of "The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story," the new book based on the notorious #NYTimes Sunday Magazine articles.
Reviewer @CarlosLozadaWP notes the basic dishonesty of the project, where criticisms are met by changing the definitions of words.

For instance, when Nikole Hannah-Jones says blacks fought for their rights "alone," that doesn't mean "Without aid or support," or "Without anyone else." It means "without the support of the majority of white Americans."
This is dubious as stated (did the majority of whites oppose the Civil Rights Act of 1964, or the Voting Rights Act of 1965? If answering, please present evidence). It is also irrelevant. A minority of white Americans has always fought for black rights. NHJ lies about this.
Part two and three of my response: Young approaches issues differently than I. I start with a piece of moral wisdom: " 'Ought' implies 'can'." If you can't accomplish something, then it's pointless to say you ought to do it. So I ask what can realistically be accomplished.
Young claims that "almost 20%" of Pakistan's judges are women. A quick web search reveals that Pakistan became independent in 1947, but didn't have a single female judge till 1974. semanticscholar.org/paper/Women-juâŠ. After an additional 47 years, there are rather more female judges, but
only 17% of judges are women, very few sit in the "high courts" (around 5%), and "The majority of female judges work in certain specialized courts, such as juvenile courts and family courts," dawn.com/news/1640773. cmi.no/publications/7âŠ, with more than 1/3 of female judges
I'm really surprised Cathy Young bothered to respond to me. I'm less surprised she has muted me. That action does make my point for me about her refusing to learn from her mistakes on moral grounds. A goal held desirable must be pursued, even if it will ultimately fail, lead
to many #Afghan deaths, provide a haven for anti-U.S. terrorists, and encourage our enemies.
I call such an attitude #Imbecilic. YMMV.
Beginning part 1 of a 4 part response:
As for Rufo, I don't "clearly" agree. I was paraphrasing her tweet. Take a gander at this:

Buried in the article (archive.is/67f7C

By implication, "public health authorities" have been lying to us, and now the lies have turned around on them.
Data release tomorrow.

No data about the effectiveness of masks in preventing spread is presented.
The risk groups haven't changed: the old, the obese, the immunocompromised.
The #CDC still doesn't understand it should tell the truth, rather than spin stuff for public relations impact.

They occur in the nose.
The reason they occur is because it takes time for the immune system to produce antibodies once the virus arrives.
These infections don't seem to spread well to the lungs or other parts of the body. Whether they cause serious disease is also unknown.

There appears to be NO data on the infectivity of those nasal infections. Potential for spreading the disease is completely unknown.
The #CDC conclusion that people with such infections might act as disease spreaders is a SWAG.
The CDC is being VERY closed-mouth about this.

âI canât promise you a sentence that involves no jail time." âYou understand whyâ I was concerned, the judge told Flynnâs attorney Robert Kelner. âThis sounds like a backpedaling on the acceptance of responsibility.â
