'Do I Have to Sue?' Joe Rogan Blasts CNN for 'Making S__t Up' About His COVID Treatment
PJ Media ^ | 09/07/2021 | Megan Fox

Joe Rogan is back on the air after his short bout with COVID, and he’s not happy about the treatment he got by the media while he was away. Rogan blasted CNN during his show for spreading falsehoods about the therapy he was prescribed by his doctor, according to Raw Story:

“Do I have to sue CNN?” Rogan asked his guest, stand-up comedian Tom Segura, referring to a video where Rogan announced that he was taking ivermectin along with other medications. “They’re making s**t up — they keep saying I’m taking horse dewormer. I literally got it from a doctor. It’s an American company — they won the Nobel Prize in 2015 for use in human beings, and CNN is saying I’m taking horse dewormer.”

“They must know that’s a lie,” Rogan continued, later adding, “If the internet is saying it, who cares? But CNN is saying it.”

Though the term “horse dewormer” stands out in my memory as the preferred descriptor the media has been using for ivermectin, a thorough search on CNN did not turn up any references to it. The Wayback Machine also appears not to have caught any instances of it. Instead, they’re using the term “drug meant for livestock,” which isn’t much better.

Watch CNN’s Erin Burnett barely concealing her disgust at the idea of Joe Rogan taking medicine “used for livestock” here.

The network does appear to be stepping back from its rabid anti-ivermectin rampage after many in the mainstream press were caught pushing a fake story about ivermectin overdoses that didn’t happen.

Aspirin is medicine "used for livestock." I suppose Erin Burnett never takes an aspirin?

Have you not noticed the large number of Big Pharma ads on TV? Of ourselves they[re getting paid by Big Pharma. The idea that the news operations are completely separate from the advertisers is laughable.

You get the prescriptions, now, and get the needed stock in case you catch rona sometime in the next 18 months.

As the stock expires, you buy more fresh stock

The down side is you pay $50 every cycle for rona insurance on your self.

It’s called Private practice. Until the Democrats find a way to end that freedom. Most Dr.’s have to tow the political line so they keep their jobs. It’s very sad Dr. can’t be Dr. because of student loan debt and they would like to be able to eat. Can’t Eat if you get blackballed for doing the right thing.

If Ivermectin can be called “horse dewormer”

can we call Coumadin “rat poison”?

“Ate horse dewormer”

That is a lie. Joe did not eat horse dewormer. He used human IVM prescribed by a doctor.

"Technically Joe Rogan did both: Ate horse dewormer"

Citation and link to where Rogan said he "ate horse dewormer", or retract and apologize. On your knees.

“They’re making shit up! They keep saying I’m taking horse dewormer. I literally got it from a doctor. It’s an American company. They won the Nobel Prize in 2015 for use in human beings and CNN is saying I’m taking horse dewormer. They must know that’s a lie.” - Joe Rogan

Merck has long held a patent on and made an oral tablet version of Ivermectin called "Stromectol".

Maybe he should sue you, although you are probably judgment-proof and have nothing anyone would want.
