Remember when everyone used to think that politicians were the most dishonest people on the planet? Those were the good old days! In 2021, it looks like the politicians have been displaced by the giant pack of liars known as “mainstream media journalists.” Did you catch that brouhaha over the weekend?
Nearly every news outlet on the planet jumped all over a fake news story from Oklahoma. A doctor claimed that all of us dumb, toothless hick Trump supporters out in flyover country were eating “horse paste” (Ivermectin) and overdosing on it, forcing all of the gunshot victims in rural communities to stand around outside the hospital awaiting their turn for treatment.
Rolling Stone published that fake story first, and then just about every reporter in America jumped on that story. Without bothering to do any research or discovering for themselves in 5 seconds on Wikipedia that Ivermectin is used as a paste deworming medicine for horses, but also as an extremely common medicine for kittycats and dogs, a liquid formulation that you can pour on a cow’s back to prevent them from getting lice during the summer, and… oh, right, a pill form for humans.
Our best guess is that most reporters must have eaten too much glue paste when they were children.
