Covid misinformation by reporters calling out Covid misinformation | Sharyl Attkisson

Covid misinformation by reporters calling out Covid misinformation | Sharyl Attkisson
"...Too often when establishment figures and media publish factually untrue information or make false statements, it's overlooked or "fact-checked" as accurate.
One prime example is CDC's repeat Covid disinformation. 
  • In January last year, the agency's top officials and scientists got caught repeatedly, falsely claiming that Covid vaccine studies early-on showed there was a benefit to people getting vaccinated if they'd already had Covid. That was untrue. Even after the agency's officials admitted on audio recordings that their information was inaccurate, they continued to distribute it on their website to the public and to medical officials. To this day, nobody has been publicly held accountable for the dangerous disinformation.
  • ...Another, among dozens of examples, is CDC's director falsely telling the public that people who are vaccinated cannot spread Covid. 
  • ...A final big one to mention here is the many insistences, from Dr. Anthony Fauci on down, that masks weren't needed or aren't effective-- followed by edicts saying masks should mandatory-- followed by revelations that these very officials weren't wearing them themselves, or observing other mandates applied to others.
  • Amid the misinformation and confusion has been the sliding scale definition of "effectiveness" when it comes to Covid-19 vaccines.
  • ...They also falsely claimed Covid is a "pandemic of the unvaccinated," even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary...Many more lies with links, read all!
