CNN Spreads Dangerous Misinformation on Rates of Serious Adverse Events While Spreading Hate

Citing CDC, CNN Promulgates Myths on Vaccine Safety & Efficacy - at a Time in Which Americans Have Zero Tolerance for CDC Propaganda

The irony of CNN’s article is thick: it has stooped to a new low in an attempt to spread hatred against the non-vaccinated and sow division under false claims that the event was antisemitic.

In a hit piece on Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., CNN has claimed that Kennedy’s remarks about the stark nature of the suppression of Constitutional rights of citizens in the US currently being held under vaccine house arrest as “antisemitic”. It also claims that Kennedy “exploited” the suffering of people who died in Nazi Germany.

This opportunistic use of false claims of bigotry weakens the ability to fight true antisemitism when it truly does arise, and Kennedy was not “exploiting” anything. He drew a contrasting comparison, reminding people that people’s rights to appear safely in public without persecution have been trampled in the past.

The CNN article claims that signs at the rally affirm antisemitism in the crowd (as if Jewish people are the only ones that perform circumcision), and makes other incredulous stretches of logic to try to cast the event and the participants as “antisemitic”.

The piece by CNN is a slaggish piece of yellow journalism, with not even an attempt to appear to be unbiased. The journalistic sloth of its authors is noteworthy, and the article should be used by schools of journalism as a good example of tripe masquerading as journalism.

CNN neglected to report on one of the most beautiful, loving speeches I have ever heard, by anyone, by Rabbi Zev Epstein, who challenged people from all walks of life to “choose the good”.

They failed to report that Jewish, Christian, and Muslim speakers - and speakers of no particular faith - united in Washington with a common message: America has woken up, and the people are taking back every inch of our country from the Pharma overlords whose influence on public health policy is dwindling. The people of America now know that when the FDA won’t back yet another booster, Pharma will try to avoid standard, required regulatory processes, instead, appealing to an elected President to unilaterally decree a mandate, involving meetings with the Biden administration that included neither members of Congress nor the public.

The CNN article also reported that:
“While there is no national vaccine mandate covering all Americans, various cities around the country, including Washington, have required proof of vaccination for access to many restaurants, bars, gyms and other private businesses. The federal government mandated vaccines for federal workers, but a federal judge in Texas blocked the administration from enforcing it on Friday. The administration's attempt to mandate vaccines for large businesses was blocked by the US Supreme Court earlier this month, although it allowed a vaccine mandate for certain health care workers to go into effect nationwide. Some businesses have voluntarily mandated vaccines.”

The CNN article fails to report that there is currently no legal basis for businesses “voluntarily mandating” vaccines. If they mandate, they must transmit some authority (and that authority must be founded in law). The recent SCOTUS ruling has affirmed that no such authority exists. No legal mandates exist for general workplace mandates, and the workplace mandates in business other than the health care enterprise are arbitrary and not backed by any legislation.

CNN also fails to report that every single mandate in place is being challenged in court and that a US Federal Judge recently blocked Biden’s unilateral Federal Employee vaccine mandate.

The CNN article continues:

“The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks, and it continues to monitor for potential safety issues. Some people experience brief, mild side effects such as headache, muscle pain and swelling at the injection site after vaccination, the CDC says, but serious complications are rare.”

It is utterly stunning to read this from CNN in late January 2022. Numerous peer-reviewed studies have shown that serious adverse events are anything but rare; in June 2021, FDA issued a warning over the risk of myocarditis following receipt of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines (CNN reported on this in June 2022).

Dr. Peter McCullough, at the same event, reported on by CNN, backed by 17,000 physicians (a fact not mentioned by CNN) told the crowd that there were over 1,000,000 adverse events reported following COVID-19 vaccinations, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. shared the stunning news that there have been more deaths following COVID-19 vaccination that have been reported following all FDA-approved vaccines combined for the last 36 years, a claimed backed by peer-reviewed science, ironically, conducted by IPAK Research Scholar Dr. Jessica Rose, who conducted the research (Rose, 2021a, 2021b) while under effective house arrest in Israel due to that government’s restrictive policies related to vaccination. Those restrictions were lifted on January 6.

CNN left out that Dr. Pierre Kory pleaded “We have to stop the dying”, as referenced the people denied early, effective treatment, which he (correctly) informed the public was due to Pharma’s war against repurposed drugs that are effective in the treatment and prophylaxis of COVID-19.

And, of course, CNN failed to report that the entire premise of the vaccination program is now clearly being drawn into question given the estimates of negative efficacy (also reported by speakers at the event): individuals who are vaccinated are now more likely than the unvaccinated to have a COVID-19 infection.

As long as CNN continues to tow the Pharma line on COVID-19 vaccines, it will continue to descend in its death spiral: last year, CNN lost 90% of its viewership. It is fast becoming one of the best examples of legacy media outlets in the world.

So, will CNN red-pill, and retract their false hate speech article that attempts to pit people of the Jewish faith against each other, and against the rest of the world who are waking up to the truth about disinformation about vaccine safety and efficacy?

I think we know the answer to that. As long as direct-to-consumer marketing of pharmaceutical products remains legal in the US, legacy media will continue to dwindle in relevance as they appear more and more fringe in their reports and answer to their Pharma masters.
