Executive summary
Here is the 21 minute CNN interview of RFK Jr where RFK demolished Dana Bash.
You can also see it here:
For me, the highlight starts at 7:20 when Dana claims the COVID shots saved lives and then she tries to quickly change the subject.
RFK Jr interrupts her… and challenged her to name ONE study showing the COVID vaccine did more good than harm for children.
She couldn’t.
And she didn’t even admit she couldn’t. That would have been the honest thing to do. Two words, “I can’t.”
That is not honest journalism. That is propaganda.
Even in their full article, they couldn’t cite a study showing more good than harm in kids.
They cited the flawed Ioannidis study which:
Use modeling, rather than measurement, to claim lives were saved. Seriously? We have record level data in Czechia where you can measure the net effect. The fact everyone avoids this should be very troubling to any honest scientist. Ioannidis doesn’t want to talk about it.
Ioannidis has no model parameter at all for the number of people killed. It’s a “good only” estimate and makes no attempt to model “harm.” They admit that in the study. It explicitly states it's only estimating lives saved, and the authors acknowledge this as a limitation. So the study CNN cited in the article doesn’t meet RFK Jr’s request, not even for adults.
Ioannidis doesn’t look at the risk-benefit for kids (or adults)
Ioannidis admitted up front that the benefits were CONFINED to a MINORITY of very old people.
Summary
CNN should publicly admit they were wrong.
They still can’t name ONE study showing the COVID vaccines benefits were greater than the harms for children which is exactly what RFK Jr. asked.
The study they named was for very old people and the study explicitly did not model harms. It was a benefits-only study, not harm vs. benefit.
And CNN will NEVER admit they were wrong. They cannot come up with the study RFK asked for and they will not admit they can’t.
Never.
That isn’t journalism. That is propaganda, all bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical companies.
It is right there in black and white for all to see. RFK Jr. exposed it for all to see.
I was furious as I listened to that interview. Dana Bash continually interrupted RFK Jr. and argued with him. She actually said her job was to prevent him from saying things that are untrue. She wouldn't let him finish a sentence as she cut him off repeatedly. She made it clear that she had no intention of allowing him to answer her questions. She intended to prevent him from answering and to push a certain narrative. She lied and said she could cite a study but when put on the spot she acted like he was unreasonable and said it was time to change the subject. Dana Bash should be ridiculed and exposed as a propagandist pretending to be a journalist. The problem though is that her colleagues are all the same and they would praise her for it. The main stream media in this country is fake news, as Trump says.
All the mass media propaganda talking heads are just as complicit in perpetuating the continued deaths of Americans from the mRNA injections. The under reported VAERS data (40,000 deaths?) is probably capturing about 5% of the truth! Our medical institutions have become calcified and controlled by group think. Fauci's NAIAD is a prime example.
