Some readers reached out this week, saying they wished they could share articles like, “After Fauci Debacle, Our Idiot Press Circles the Wagons.” That story is now unlocked, so you can send the link above and the story will be open.
I’ve also gone back and opened prior articles on the subject:
— “So Friggin’ Likely”: New Covid Documents Reveal Unparalleled Deception.” July 18, 2023. One of several articles co-authored with the staff of Public, on the release of Slack chats between the authors of an influential Nature Medicine article, “The Proximal Origin of SARS CoV-2.” Racket and Public were the first outlets to get hold of those documents.
— “In Their Labs”: Fifteen Illuminating Passages in The Proximal Origin Chats and Emails.” July 18, 2023. See above. More samples from the Proximal Origin chats.
— “Anthony Fauci Was America’s Warmup Dictator.” September 30, 2023. Recounting false statements by Fauci and the censorship of scientists with differing opinions.
If there are other old pieces on this subject I’m forgetting, please let me know. We have to pay the bills, but I’m happy to unlock materials in this area especially.
Newspapers have always been partisan however the alphabet networks have totally abandoned any pretense of objectivity. Not a single one of them has even questioned Fauci’s judgment or ethics. The diaries have gotten the same treatment as the Hunter laptop. Turn them off and scold their advertisers.
Thank you Matt. You are a genuine journalist.
I am concerned that in making Dr Fauci the evil genius ,and focusing only on him, all the politicians who opted to cover their asses by following his suggestions without any recognition that their job is bigger than being the handmaid of one expert, escape accountability.
I think particularly of Andrew Cuomo's "if it saves one life" - no public policy can be designed that offers 100% safety. Any belief that you can is delusional.
Why were our constitutional protections overridden so casually? What can we do to ensure that doesn't happen again?
