Joe Rogan rips CNN over coverage of ivermectin regimen

Podcaster Joe Rogan slammed CNN for the network's coverage of his recent coronavirus diagnosis and revelation that he's taking ivermectin among a number of other drugs to treat the disease.

“Bro, do I have to sue CNN?” Rogan asked during a recent episode of his podcast. “They’re making sh*t up. They keep saying I’m taking horse dewormer. I literally got it from a doctor. It’s an American company. They won the Nobel Prize in 2015 for use in human beings and CNN is saying I’m taking horse dewormer. They must know that’s a lie.”

Rogan last week said in a video statement posted on social media he had tested positive for the virus and after a few days of feeling sick he was on the mend.

“So we threw the kitchen sink at it, all kinds of meds,” Rogan said.

The popular podcast host mentioned Z-Pak, prednisolone and ivermectin, which has been approved for use in humans for some conditions but is not recommended for the treatment of COVID-19.

CNN was one of many media outlets last week that covered Rogan's announcement.

"A lot of people can say it," Rogan added. "The internet can say it and who cares, but CNN is saying it, like Jim Acosta."

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned Americans late last month not to take ivermectin, a drug sometimes used to treat parasitic worm infections in humans and livestock. “For one thing, animal drugs are often highly concentrated because they are used for large animals like horses and cows, which can weigh a lot more than we do—a ton or more. Such high doses can be highly toxic in humans,” the FDA said in a statement. “Many inactive ingredients found in animal products aren’t evaluated for use in people. Or they are included in much greater quantity than those used in people. In some cases, we don’t know how those inactive ingredients will affect how ivermectin is absorbed in the human body."

Rogan said of CNN's coverage of the drugs he took to treat his infection: "They're trying to make it seem like I'm doing some whacky sh*t that's completely ineffective, CNN was saying that I'm a distributor of misinformation."

Rogan is an independent thinker, a bit too libtard for me but the libstatists are going bonkers over the guy.

I like Joe Rogan. He’s a lot better than, say, Ben Shapiro.

Granny Clampett created a cure for the common cold. All you had to do was take it, and in one week, you felt better.

Handicap match in the Octagon . . .

In this corner we have Jim ‘Orange Man Bad to Me’ Acosta, Brian ‘Pillsbury Doughboy’ Stelter, Don “Pull on my Meyer’s Tree’ Lemon and Anderson ‘Po’ Boy’ Cooper

and in this corner, with one hand tied behind his back . . .

Joe ‘I Crap Bigger pieces than You Scum’ Rogan

I’d pay big money for that one

I have not studied if invermectin is useful or not. Same with HCQ. But its a simple fact that tens of millions of people all over Africa and India are using it for Covid, and more importantly, that the rest of the world is searching for alternatives and collecting data in an open-minded and scientific way.

So what’s most shocking is the rabid, close-minded and reactionary response from America’s central-government apparatchiks and their kept crony media. What have we become?

I used to be interested in Ben Shapiro, especially the videos where he went on college campuses to debate, but...once I began listening to his podcasts, that was it for me.

He would bend over to appear “impartial” but when something is right, it is right and there is no need for gymnastics to give that appearance.

Oh, please! Please, do it! Do it!!!

Do *anything* to bring publicity to ivermectin, the necessity of early treatment of Covid, to any and all liberal/globullist lies & subterfuge.

H’mmm…

Rogan revealed that in 2019, he had 200 million (!!!) podcast downloads per month.

If a really popular CNN show (I think Cuomo Primetime) gets 1 million viewers per weekday show, they think he's doing great.

So that makes Rogan about 10X more popular than CNN's star performer.

That's why they must try to destroy him.

Wonder where he found a good doc? Ours won’t do crap except prescribe zinc, Zpak, and melatonin.

They hate Rogan because he once again put the lie to the leftists. He didn’t get the “everyone must take it!” jab, and then he took the “forbidden and mocked” meds, AND THEN he recovers remarkably quickly AND THEN is back at work in days. Rogan has committed blasphemy!! Need we further proof??

Someone altered his covid video to make him look grey-green. I’ve seen the side-by-side comparison.

Doesn’t Rogan have an audience about 3 X that of CNN?

Joe competed in Tae Kwon Do and Kickboxing as a young adult.
He’s also a black belt in BJJ now.

Perhaps CNN doesn't know that Ivermectin, while available as a very effective horse dewormer, is also available in tablets specifically meant for human consumption.

Perhaps CNN doesn't know that in April, 2021, the NIH admitted that Ivermectin is effective against COVID-19. See article.

Perhaps CNN doesn't have a clue?
