“Nurses don’t like Joe Rogan”
I mean. Just read the signatories. ImageImage
I mean no offense to the Science Correspondent at the “Unbiased Science Podcast,” the various veterinarians and their associates, the marriage therapist (licensed!) and the “science communicators” of course. ImageImageImageImage
Corporate press does this often: appeal to supposed experts to advance a particular talking point and have it masquerade as news.

If NPR thinks that nurses should be in charge of content moderation, they should just say that.

🧵THREAD🧵

An explosive story from @NPR and @NinaTotenberg about supposed high drama around masking at the Supreme Court imploded today.

I want to take you through how misinformation like this gets mainstreamed by the corporate press and others.

Start here ⤵️
First, some background. @NPR reporter @NinaTotenberg reported that tensions were high at SCOTUS, particularly because Justice Gorsuch had supposedly refused a request from Chief Justice Roberts to put on a mask to help protect Justice Sotomayor.
But then the story started unraveling. First Sotomayor and Gorsuch put out a statement disputing some aspects of the reporting/narrative.

Then, this afternoon, Chief Justice Roberts went on the record to say the masking story was bogus.

I have a feeling this will not tamp down the rage that a certain type of lefty blue check feels toward Gorsuch supposedly on Sotomayor’s behalf. ImageImageImageImage
Although as others have pointed out, while this statement clearly shoots down a Twitter talking point, it doesn’t directly dispute the reporting by NPR.
Ah. Well. That clears it up.

This is a malicious lie from The Daily Beast. Anyone who has listened to the audio knows that.

Watters is talking about asking Fauci a question to catch him in his lies.

The spitting image of fake news.
Here’s the full clip, where Watters says that young conservatives should directly challenge Fauci if he comes to their college campuses and “be respectful”
It’s absolute bullshit to pretend he’s calling for violence. He’s urging young conservative activists, if people like Fauci come to their campus, to use it as an opportunity to ask pointed questions.

NEW: The Biden Admin sent talking points out today touting their accomplishments to (some) reporters. It can only be described as a war on reality.

Quick 🧵 to break down the end-of-year desperation they’re hoping the press will buy. ⤵️
First, vaccination rates. Without mentioning that the Admin inherited three vaccines from their predecessor, Biden claims credit for a 70% jump in vaccination rate year-over-year.
A year ago, the first vaccine had been administered one week prior, so OF COURSE vax rates were low.

But when Biden was sworn in, the US was vaccinating citizens at the 5th highest rate in the developed world.

That # has fallen dramatically under Biden. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
