'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.

My question is — how did Joe Rogan get his Ivermectin supply so quick ( the human version ) when I hear many people are having a hard time filling their prescriptions from Pharmacies.

That’s the reason why people are re-sorting to the animal version of the drug.

On his YouTube channel he was asked that and he said that he was already prepared.

Technically Joe Rogan did both:
Ate horse dewormer and used medicine “off label” for unapproved used.

Merck has specifically said their IVM should not be used to treat covid. https://www.merck.com/news/merck-statement-on-ivermectin-use-during-the-covid-19-pandemic/

Joe doesn’t have a case. CNN didn’t lie, and Joe can’t prove damages.

“Do I have to sue CNN?”

Does CNN have any assets left after Nick Sandmann's settlement cleaned them out?

If you have a private doctor, they can prescribe you something off label, whereas an HMO or larger hospital will have rules that prevent using unapproved drugs. (Liability, being one reason.)

Erin Burnett might want to spend a few minutes covering a CIC with dementia.

News for the so called esteemed "journalists":

Vet medicine and people medicine have crossed over many times.

Do a little research, and you would know this.

Then again, one has to wonder if these news readers are on the payroll of Big Pharma?

He had discussed these forms of treatment with his doctor earlier, he thought ahead and said if i get this, i want iv vitamin c, i want ivermectin, i want monomclonal antibodies, and his doctor must have been of the same mindset.

Even a socialist, statist country like India is allowing its various states and individual doctors to experiment with other common medicines, like HCQ and Invermectin. Literally tens of millions of people are taking it there for Covid

When did the USA become so closed-minded, propagandistic and dictatorial, enforced by a corrupt media?

That's wrong. There is a qualitative difference between taking Stromectol(brand name of Ivermectin)a prescription pill and FDA approved medication, and taking Ivomec, a paste for horses. They have the same active ingredient, but one is intended to slander Rogan.

plenty of medications are dual use, animal and human. they are demonizing ivermectin by insinuating it is for animals only.

If you watch the show, Rohan explains he had a Covid treatment plan just in case, which included Ivermectin, so he was prepared beforehand with a supply of everything he needed, the doctor who wrote my prescription for Ivermectin also wrote a treatment plan for me which included other things besides Ivermectin to have on hand just in case

Ivermectin supporters, who possibly weren’t able to acquire prescriptions for the drug from their physicians, may resort to the animal-version stocked in farm supply stores, not knowing the difference. Ivermectin for animals contain ingredients not tested for humans. “The recommended dose for animals by weight is much higher, and if people ingest ivermectin at that high dose, they’re likely to be poisoned,” says Michael Teng, a health virologist at the University of South Florida.

I remember the controversy over DMSO normally used for inflammation in horses. Now it is used for as a prescription medication for treating symptoms of painful bladder syndrome. It’s also used under medical supervision to treat several other conditions, including shingles and arthritis.

Quote: “When did the USA become so closed-minded, propagandistic and dictatorial, enforced by a corrupt media?”

The Dem-Government/Media/BigPharma/Hospital coalition is doing everything they can to stop interventionary treatments for COVID-19 that keep those who catch COVID from having to go to the hospital for a handful of reasons:

(1) An effective interventionary COVID treatement (or multiple ones) will completely eliminate any justification whatsoever for the lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccine mandates. The government could no longer enforce them because an interventionary treatment would allow COVID to be treated like the flu or a cold.

(2) Effective interventionary treatment(s) would deny Democrats any justification for massive vote-by-mail fraud schemes for the 2022 midterms and 2024 Presidential elections.

(3)Government payments to BigPharma for COVID vaccine: In addition to anything paid to BigPharma by the patient’s insurance for the COVID vaccine the US Government pays J&J $40 for every patient vaccinated in the USA; Pfizer and Moderna gets $80 per patient vaccinated in the USA. If you assume each vaccine gets equal share of the market the Government would have paid out $11.651 Billion dollars for the 176 million COVID vaccine doses given out in the USA so far. The USA has a total population of roughly 333.3 million people - so that leaves another 157.3 million or so vaccines that they want to get out - roughly another $10 Billion or so in pork to pay out to BigPharma.

(4) US Government payout to Hospitals for COVID care: In addition to anything paid to the hospital by the patient’s insurance, the US Government is paying out $13,000 for every COVID patient that is hospitalized, another $39,000 for every COVID patient placed on a ventilator. Considering the millions that have been hospitalized and or placed on a ventilator that adds to to billions upon billions of pork paid out to the hospitals for COVID care - ON TOP OF ANYTHING PAID TO THE HOSPITAL BY THE PATIENT’S INSURANCE!

I would be shocked of the Democratic party isn’t getting one hell of a kickback from all this COVID pork being handed out to BigPharma and the Hospitals as well.

If Conservatives are able to regain power, my one hope is that we arrest those within our Government - at all levels (Federal, State, and Local), the Media, BigPharma, Hospital Admins/Medical Associations, and Big Tech who have taken part in this mess via Nuremburg style trials. The crime that should be charged primarily should be is for the millions of COVID deaths that could have been avoided had these groups not worked overtime to actively block the development of interventionary COVID treatments so that these people didn’t have to die. Additional charges should be corruption and violating the Constitutional Rights of American Citizens and the Human Rights of people around the world. They should all be punished at the gallows or by firing squad.
