This is being reported as a joke and maybe it is. I don’t know. What I do know is that it isn’t going to help an American population that is sick of the coronavirus lockdown and doesn’t trust the media. A New York Times photographer was caught on a hot mic bragging the he and other White House correspondents have been vaccinated against the coronavirus. Whether this is true or not, the NYT is certainly going out of its way to shred its credibility with the public.
A hot mike caught Fox News’ John Roberts and New York Times photographer Doug Mills, who was wearing a mask, talking about the coronavirus in the White House briefing room.
“What do you know, buddy?” Mills said.
“You can take off the mask, the case fatality rate is 0.1 to 0.3 according to USC,” says Roberts.
Then came this:
“Really? That’s reassuring. Everybody here has been vaccinated anyway,” says Mills.
Without a laugh or even a pause, Roberts launched into this:
“USC and LA County public health came out with a study that found that there are 7,000 cases in California but they really believe there are anywhere from 221,000 to 442,000 people who are infected,” said Roberts.
Somehow it got weirder:
“So it was a hoax?” Mills asks.
“No, I don’t think it was a hoax,” Roberts responded.
Almost nobody is reporting on this, but those who have are saying that the 2 men are joking. Here’s a fair question: where is the proof these men were joking? They don’t sound like they are joking. They never laugh or speak in a way that indicates humor. It’s just 2 journalists having a straight conversation.
One of the weird things, besides these shocking admissions is, that Mills appears to be adjusting microphones for use by reporters. Actually at one point he rubs his face and then with the same hand rubs the microphones. Why would a photographer be doing anything with microphones let alone rubbing his face juice on them?
Also, at the beginning of the video Mills is unusually close to President Trump’s podium. Isn’t this a massive security breech?
Take your pick on the conspiracy theories here: 1) there is a coronavirus vaccine that is being kept from the general public and only administered to the elites or 2) the coronavirus is a massive hoax. I guess both of these things could be true.
A third scenario is that this was staged and purposefully leaked as disinformation and to illicit a response that the liberal media can use against freedom-minded individuals. They know people who think the coronavirus lockdown is fascist bullshit are going to see this and take it at face value. Then democrats and the liberal media can say, “see, these people are irrational conspiracy theorists” and justify continuing their social engineering project.
One thing that is for certain is that the media cannot be trusted one bit. If they are sitting on a vaccine or if the coronavirus is a hoax, they are lying. If they staged this for nefarious purposes, they are lying. The one constant is, they are lying and that’s the only truth that matters.
