Newspaper Apologizes for Publishing Covid Propaganda [semi-satire]

The editors of the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet apologized for "thoughtlessly regurgitating the official government narrative on covid without ever questioning the validity of the content. We got swept up in the 'end-of-the-world' hysteria that led to bogus claims that 'science' required the incoherent and authoritarian measures that ruined millions of livelihoods, cost trillions of dollars, and encouraged vicious hatred of the scapegoats designated by government health authorities and politicians."

"Good journalism emanates from skepticism," the editors wrote. "If we are to avert a further decline into insanity we must return to this foundation of our business. A self-governing people must have accurate information and access to different points of view. Going forward we will strive to repair some of the damage we helped bring down on the citizens of Denmark these past two years by our uncritical acceptance of government propaganda. We hope readers will give us this chance to make amends."

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the world's foremost expert on covid, expressed dismay "that a formally dedicated adherent to following the science has set itself apart from the only possible strategy for dealing with the virus. Bringing in different interpretations and opinions will only confuse people. Battling an adversary as tough as the coronavirus requires that we all march to the same drummer. I am that drummer. The mandatory measures we have devised must be implemented with expeditious and unquestioning obedience in order for them to work. We can't afford the luxury of a free press or dissenting views."

Wouldn’t it be great if we had even one newspaper like that?
