Two days ago, Chris Pandolfo at Blaze Media revealed that his media organization had filed FOIA requests regarding the Biden Administration’s covert funding of the deadly new vaccines and the American corporate media. What they discovered will certainly shock you — and it’s a crucial story that our corrupt media will work hard to make the least covered and least discussed news story of the year.
What did Chris Pandolfo find? He discovered that nearly the entire corporate media took money from the Biden Administration to push the vaccines to their audiences without disclosing it. More importantly, so-called “conservative” media organizations took money from the Biden Administration to spin positive stories about deadly and ineffective vaccines to their conservative viwers who were right to be suspicious — and did not disclose it.
Fox News took the money and said nothing to its conservative viewers.
Newsmax took the money and said nothing to its conservative viewers.
In response to a FOIA request filed by TheBlaze, HHS revealed that it purchased advertising from major news networks including ABC, CBS, and NBC, as well as cable TV news stations Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, legacy media publications including the New York Post, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post, digital media companies like BuzzFeed News and Newsmax, and hundreds of local newspapers and TV stations. These outlets were collectively responsible for publishing countless articles and video segments regarding the vaccine that were nearly uniformly positive about the vaccine in terms of both its efficacy and safety.
That is the largest and most comprehensive breach of journalistic ethics that has ever occurred. Almost everybody took the money. Almost everybody lied about the vaccines (knowingly or unknowingly). Almost everybody refused to report anything negative about the vaccines — because they were paid to close their eyes. Almost everybody is implicated.
Now that the new COVID vaccines have been shown to be not only dangerous and ineffective but highly dangerous, the American public would naturally expect the American news media to do some investigation into the biggest medical experiment in the history of the world. That’s not going to happen. The American corporate media has been paid off by the Biden Administration, and so they’re running Ukraine war footage 24/7 in the hope that the American public will forget the last two years of media-manufactured COVID mania.
Let me add some personal details to the largest corporate media scandal of the year: I have been contacted by a whistleblower inside Newsmax who has confirmed the broad details of this story. That insider confirms: Newsmax executives agreed to take the money from Biden’s Health and Human Services (HHS) to push only positive coverage of the new COVID vaccines.
Let me add another personal detail: I was contacted by top Newsmax executives and told to halt any negative coverage of the vaccines in 2021. I was told that “it was problematic” for Newsmax. I was given some version of this warning multiple times by multiple executives. Obviously, I did not heed their advice.
Of course, almost everyone else employed in the corporate media did keep their mouths shut. I discussed the outright ban on negative vaccine coverage with other Newsmax producers and top anchors at the time, and they were aware that they could not provide negative coverage of the news vaccines without repercussions from the network. I was contacted by PR experts who worked with Newsmax and was told that medical experts and doctors who might say negative things about the new vaccines would not be booked as guests at all.
In other words, the Biden Administration’s money did not just pay for pro-vaccine advertising at outlets like Fox and Newsmax: it paid for an outright ban on any negative coverage. There’s a word for that kind of thing, and the word is: propaganda. Corporate news executives with no medical training and no expertise began to make ludicrous announcements that were basically blanket endorsements of the deadly and untested vaccines. Pandolfo decribes this propaganda:
Other publications, such as the Los Angeles Times, featured advice from experts on how readers could convince vaccine-hesitant people in their lives to change their minds. The Washington Post covered "the pro-vaccine messages people want to hear." Newsmax has reported how the vaccines have "been demonstrated to be safe and effective" and "encouraged citizens, especially those at risk, to get immunized."
HHS did not immediately respond when asked if the agency used taxpayer dollars to pay for people to be interviewed, or for a PR firm to place them in interviews with news outlets.
Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy even wrote an op-ed to celebrate Joe Biden’s vaccine rollout and praise Biden’s high poll numbers. This op-ed was basically a personal plea for the American public to take medical advice from a news organization that was secretly taking money from the Biden Administration to say positive things about dangerous drugs. "At Newsmax, we have strongly advocated for the public to be vaccinated. The many medical experts who have appeared on our network have been near unanimous in support of the vaccine," Ruddy said. "I myself have gotten the Pfizer vaccine. There’s no question in my mind, countless lives would have been saved if the vaccine was available earlier."
Meanwhile, Fox News executive are continuing to enforce vaccinbe mandates with their own employees — even though the mandates have been halted by the courts. Fox is even offering $500 to any employee, right now, who proves they got the jab.
We have just lived through the most extensive propaganda campaign in the history of the world and it was paid for with taxpayer dollars. You paid for it. I paid for it. We will probably never know how much money was spent because, according to a source familiar with the FOIAs, the Biden Administration won’t release the amounts under their “trade secrets” exemption.
I’ve been telling people for the last two years that, when the truth comes out about the deadly COVID vaccines, it will topple the American corporate media.
Now you know what I was talking about.
Worth a repost!!
Its ALWAYS “THE MONEY”!
Years ago before covid, RFK Jr asked his friend Roger Ailes to get him on one of his Fox shows. Ailes told him that if that happened, he would get a call from Rupert and, not sure if I remember this correctly, would be fired. Pharma is the major advertiser. Don’t bite the hand...
And I knew Chris Ruddy was a duplicitous phony through people who were prospective business prospects for him years ago, too.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

FOX is always there to push Gov Hoaxes.
And collect money for it.

bttt
FOX was one of the biggest fake vax pushers out there. I wonder how much Biden pays them for war propaganda?
They are so obvious when they have an agenda they are pushing.
Fox and Newsmax are not your friends. Go to One America News because OAN is what both of them make believe they are and never have been.
Heartwarming to find people not yet jaded by the cynicism of bitter experience. Such sweet innocence would almost restore your faith in human nature...if you didn't know better. Of course, no one needs to tell you such idealists will simply be squashed like cockroaches and nobody will do squat about it.
If the political prisoners of Jan. 6 haven't proved this to you, nothing will.
I figured something like that happened when Newsmaxx started slapping a vaccine ad in front of every streaming program....
How much did Hannity get paid?
So Fox ran paid advertising from the gov. I don’t see the big deal here. They *could’ve* taken moral exception to it and not ran the advertising I guess.
If it was payments to Fox News (without advertising contract) or Fox employees directly, I think that would be a problem but that’s not what happened here according to the article.
It is a big deal because they didn't just run ads, they ran propaganda OUTSIDE OF AD TIME, pretending it was "news" while they intentionally misdirected and squelched actual news items that conflicted with what they were paid 30 pieces of government silver for.
All the additional propaganda is an illegal political contribution-in-kind.
They outright lied to their viewers about dangerous health experiments. While the pharmaceutical korporations may cling to immunity (despite evidence of fraud), the media outlets can't are liable for spreading misinformation that led to adverse reactions and deaths from the Jim Jones Jabs. The media outlets can't claim it was a government ad - no, the talking heads spewed the lies outside of the government advertisements.
The family of any deceased and anyone suffering from the clot shots can sue the media outlets, even if the pharmaceutical korporations and the government claim immunity.
This is criminal.

That makes sense; I see the issue with it. Thanks for clarifying.
Comrades nod
Ditto. I stopped watching when that started.
