In a broadcast rife with misinformation, disinformation and outright lies, National Public Radio has embarrassed itself while maligning me. The September 21, 2021, broadcast opened with NPR host Robin Young calling me “the biggest disseminator of lies about COVID” — a false claim debunked and rejected by none other than Facebook itself, more than a month earlier.
Young then went on to claim that I started America’s Frontline Doctors, an independent organization that, in reality, I am not a member of and have no affiliation with whatsoever. I don’t even know anyone personally in the organization.
Young interviewed Dr. Humayun Chaudhry, president and CEO of the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), about the FSMB’s recommendation to state medical boards to fine, suspend and revoke the licenses of doctors who don’t follow the mainstream COVID narrative.
Somebody please answer this- if public radio is “listener supported” then why do they take any tax money at all? If they have to take tax money to operate (even a little bit), then they are NOT listener supported. If they ARE listener supported, then they do not have to take tax money. So either they are confused, or lying, or both.
Good news is that I listened to the latest NPR beg a thon on WSCL- it sure sounds like they are dying. I also don’t hear liberal Don Rush anymore. Maybe they had to let him go?
