It amazes me that Business Insider does not have one hour of an interns time to confirm sensational stories like this. More likely everyone in the publishing chain was deathly afraid of questioning any part of the narrative of obedience to medical authority that their main stream editors require.

      It sat at +3 with no comments for a couple hours and still doesn't appear on https://hckrnews.com/ https://hckrnews.com/, so it may have been partially hidden somehow. Zerohedge articles certainly deserve independent verification, but as this story shows, that should be the default position for all media not the exception.

    Facts Don't Matter When You're 'Morally Right' the words of aoc that defined better the past 2 years. when you think that , the logical next step is « why would i spend money fact checking something that looks like what a pro trumper would take as a medicine it,is,obviously risky and can give overdoses »

      So, are you from the "I hate the woke" side? Because facts haven't mattered for many years during the Bush and Trump admins. If you are a Trump/Bush/conservative, it's amazing to me how much blinded someone can be about the weaknesses of his own side. Even when I googled this term you're twisting the facts about what AOC actually said. https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2019/01/07/aoc-facts-dont-matter-youre-morally-right-n266904 https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2019/01/07/aoc-facts-dont-ma...

Business Insider is part of Axel Springer AG, a German publisher best known for their flag ship BILD. They've always played loose with sources and facts, and have always favored attention/clicks/sales over truth. BI isn't as one the nose as their tabloids, but I haven't had the impression that they operate by different principles either.
