Interview with Alison Morrow, on Censorship, Covid, and Media Manipulation
Click through for a great talk with the Washington-based podcaster once fired for interviewing Dr. Aaron Kheriaty
Alison Morrow has two Emmy awards as a broadcaster and worked in newsrooms all over the country, in uncontroversial straight-news outlets like the Seattle NBC affiliate KING-TV. She quit TV news in 2019 and took a job with the Washington Department of Natural Resources, starting up a podcast in her spare time. Her career took a bizarre turn in 2021 when, after interviewing Missouri v. Biden plaintiff and lockdown critic Dr. Aaron Kheriaty for her show, she was fired from her state job for taking action they said would “undermine” DNR policies.
Alison and I reconnected after I spoke with Kheriaty recently, and we had a great discussion about her experiences and the craziness still infecting the media business. Her YouTube channel is more than worth a follow, and thanks to her for having me on.
Editor’s Note: Morrow’s story gained more retrospective importance yesterday when the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals responded to a request from the plaintiffs to reconsider an earlier ruling and restore the Homeland Security Agency CISA in the injunction against government censorship. This is a big victory for plaintiffs, for as Racket readers may recall, the removal of CISA from the earlier appellate ruling was a significant blow. You can see Kheriaty’s tweet about the news here.
In other words
Big Brother is watching.
Big Brother is always watching.
Big Brother will tolerate no dissent.
On a podcast.
Or in an errant phrase uttered in a bathroom in Poughkeepsie.
Big Brother will find you.
Big Brother will delete you.
Now let's imagine how this will look when Big Brother controls your money & your 15 minute Existenz pod & your lockdown/booster status & your ability to earn a living, etc., etc.
It also makes me wonder about Joe Biden being in charge of what we think.
Does that mean we'll all begin craving the subtle olfactory wonders of a prepubescent girl's freshly laundered hair?
"Corporate liberalism...first it controls your mind...then it destroys your body."
"The vaccine will set you free."
“I want you to stay away from the vaccine! Those mondo weirdo Big Pharma guys, they've got unsavory connections, they play rough. Rougher than even Russel Brand wants to play... You know, in Brazil, Central America, those kinds of places, making underground vaccines is considered a subversive act. They execute people for it. In Pittsburgh, who knows?”
“Corporate liberals have not engaged in conversation for at least twenty years. The monologue is their preferred mode of discourse.”
"Debate is a trap."
“Your sexuality, like your reality, is already half video hallucination. If you're not careful, it will become total hallucination. You'll have to learn to live in a very strange new world.”
"Long live the new flesh."
Why does anyone believe we can live in a fascist state without censorship? That is ridiculous. Either you're a fascist or you're not. You can't have it both ways.
