Joe Rogan said something interesting in his Instagram post the other day when he was responding to the Spotify controversy about his podcasts. He talked about his view on the media attacking him for “misinformation.”
“The problem I have with the term misinformation – especially today – is that many of the things that we thought of as misinformation just a short while ago are now accepted as fact, like for instance, if you said eight months ago, you can still catch COVID, and you can still spread COVID, you’d be removed from social media. They would ban you from certain platforms. Now, that’s accepted as fact.” He also noted that if you previously had talked about cloth masks not working that you would be banned from social media, but now that is openly stated on CNN. If you talked about the possibility of the lab leak theory, you might be banned he said. Now, it’s on the cover of Newsweek.
Are we about to hear another big narrative shift on one of those points? Well, maybe.
Reuters dropped a pretty big story last night from a Japanese company looking at the effectiveness of Ivermectin. They said that the drug had been shown effective in Phase III clinical trials. Now, it turns out that wasn’t true. What was true was that it had shown an “antiviral effect” against Omicron and other coronavirus variants in joint non-clinical research. That’s still promising, although not as much as what was first claimed because it’s not tested in humans yet.
But it seems Reuters felt that they had to even blunt that truth while reporting the story. How Reuters structured the story and updated it is something else. In a story that should be about the science, Reuters spent most of the story running down the drug, talking about the Joe Rogan controversy, even doing a bit of a bash on hydroxychloroquine and President Donald Trump. At last check, they had done six updates to the story.

Sounds like someone was unhappy with this report to need all these updates.
Uh-oh. Reuters is "spreading disinformation.":

But the tweet is still up, so that may be promising.
As you may recall, Joe Rogan got attacked by CNN for just saying that he’d been prescribed Ivermectin by his doctor, although the FDA hasn’t approved it for COVID use. So now that Reuters and a pharma company are talking about it, is it acceptable to discuss it? Isn’t it ridiculous that anyone even has to ask that? That we’re at the point in this allegedly free society that we have to be concerned if we trip over some invisible line and say something someone doesn’t like we may get censored or face a ban hammer? Such attitudes are harmful to science, getting to the truth and effective treatments.
IF ivermectin DID actually turn out to be an effective medication for Covid-19, you get the feeling that SOME people would actually be upset. How invested in your narrative do you have to be to NOT want medication to work? Seems a teensy-weensy bit weird doncha think?🧐

Ping for your interest
The reporting on this has not been very good. I’m still not exactly sure what Kowa has found or said.
Here’s web translation of the Kowa report that prompted the articles.

Reuters has a major conflict of interest and should never be listened to on anything related to competitive products of Pfizer or vaccines.
Pfizer Inc. today announced the election of James C. Smith to its Board of Directors, effective immediately. Mr. Smith also was appointed to the Corporate Governance and Science and Technology Committees of Pfizer’s Board.
Mr. Smith, 54, is the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Thomson Reuters and serves on its Board of Directors. Prior to his appointment as CEO in January 2012, he held various leadership positions at Thomson Reuters, including CEO and Chief Operating Officer (COO)
Yeah, FR’s vax shills.
But it’s more understandable when you consider it’s what they are getting paid to do.
Everyone paying attention has known all along that the essential outlawing on early treatment protocols and prophylactics like HCQ and Ivermectin was executed to drive the death counts up to remove President Trump and grab power for one world government. This was highly effective and so we’ll see lots more of it.
You have to be blind, deaf and dumb to not have seen what was and is going on right in plain sight. Especially with all of the other acts executed that fly smack dab in the face of long established medical protocols and scientific facts.
People and their propagandist news organizations twisting their statements into intellectual pretzels to support those doing the killing and seizing of power, the compromised medical “industry” and nearly all of the politicians.
Wow, that is one HUGE conflict of interest. Thanks for pointing that out.
The incestuous interlocking boards of directors like that were a big cause of the movement to pass the antitrust laws in the USA.
Yup. Upset enough to adopt Orwell as a journalistic standard and label all disagreeable thought, speech, opinion & analysis as “fake news” & “misinformation”.
What’s astounding to me is how many ‘normally intelligent’ non-liberals fall for the gaslighting.
A person’s opinion on IM truly is an IQ test to compliment the preeminent one: Masks.
But we can’t see an FR poster’s face, now can we? /s
Didn’t have that one in my list.
Thanks!
And the modified limited hangout continues...
It’s been morbidly fascinating watching from a Biblical perspective, seeing the people of the lie do what they do, watching them change step to march in time, following where ever their drum major leads them, while playing whatever music he tells them to play.
The siren songs they’ve been playing have captivated and captured many for the one they follow, just as foretold in the Bible.
