The Day Jake Tapper Sold His Soul to Pharma
The Defender ^ | Jan 6, 2022 | Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Posted on 01/07/2022 8:04:04 PM PST by Jayster

There’s a reason CNN’s Jake Tapper is intent on branding me a “menace” and “a liar,” and why he refuses to debate me on the merits of facts and scientific evidence. Here’s the back story.

Apparently, appalled by robust sales of my bestseller, “The Real Anthony Fauci,” CNN anchor Jake Tapper — in lieu of critically reviewing the work — used his Twitter feed to unleash a barrage of ad hominem insults against me.

Breaking with the traditional restraints of journalistic neutrality, professional propriety and intellectual rigor, he branded me “dangerous,” a “menace,” a “liar,” a “grifter,” a fraud, “unhinged” and more.

But Tapper’s defamations hang in the atmosphere without substantiation or citation. If I’m a liar, then what was my lie? If I’m a grifter, then what is my personal profit or advantage? If I am a fraud, then where is my inaccurate statement?

I concede that I’m a dangerous menace, but only to the pharmaceutical industry, its captive technocrats and its media toadies.

When I responded to his slander with a respectful tweet inviting him to debate me, Tapper declined, explaining he would not debate a “conspiracy theorist.” Characteristically, he neglected to cite any conspiracy theory he believes I promoted.

Robert’s a very smart dude, his book is fantastic and in a debate, Jake would be on his arse gasping for air.

“Watch this 0:55 second montage of Pfizer sponsorship of Big Media.
“Brought to you by Pfizer”

There was a BIG DEBATE about ever letting prescription drugs be advertised to the general public, since the general public could not go out and simply buy them.

Our side thought that the drug companies simply wanted patients to pressure doctors into prescribing statins and other harmful garbage. The drug companies eventually won.

And while pressuring doctors was partly true, the real motivation wasn’t in the advertising, it was in threat to PULL ADVERTISING if a media outlet ran a negative story.

And so just like that, the same drug companies that were DEMONIZED by the Left through the 1980s are now HEROES to the Left and you will NEVER hear another negative story about a drug or drug company on network news...they simply cannot afford it.

Yep, I remember when it was not legal to advertise Rx drugs.

I completely agree with your observations.

Who keeps big pharma in business?

“Big placebo”

They’re lined up at the drug store/pharmacy everyday.

The narrative is falling apart. Triple boosted have COVID. Now admitting many in the hospital with and not because of COVID. Vaccine deaths and side effects are coming and Tapper and others including some on Fox know what people will think: “You’re a coverup artist. Your information is incomplete and can’t be trusted.” Being a liberal means being 1 to 3 years behind the truth. As the late great Rush used to say: I’m telling you now what they’ll act like they’re discovering next year.
Kennedy would wipe the floor with Tapper on vaccines. Kennedy is encyclopedic on the subject. Vaccine-Autism connection needs to be explored.

The ads that show obvious bribes of the media are the drug ads that say something like, “As your doctor if xyz is right for you”. Nowhere in the ad is there any mention of what xyz is even for. Why would I as my doctor if it’s right for me? What is it?

He would have been banned completely by the media except for the fact that he is a Kennedy. Anyone else would be an unperson.

No problem with this. Tapper needs to be called out.

I didn’t think that Tapper had soul.

An astute observation, BobL.  To share this with others, are there any authoritative stories or public experts we can point to that back up this?

Who is the Dr. Malone on this issue of threatening to pulling advertising?  Other than Robert Kennedy Jr. who is a second observer.

This is a terrific article. Thanks for posting. My admiration for Mr. Kennedy increases each time I read one of his pieces. My disdain for the MSM could not be greater.

Is it possible that the Kennedys have redeemed themselves through Robert?

Wouldn’t that be something.

A “conspiracy theorist” is anyone who dares speak the truth about anything, anywhere, anytime.
