Jenna, you're so Spot on that even Dick, Jane, and Sally all banding together cannot deny the fact checking Fact Fakers.

When the Internet rates something FALSE -- especially when the Internet says it over and over! -- I immediately rate it TRUE. Likewise, when the Internet says someone is a LIAR, I immediately rate him/her/it a TRUTH TELLER.

A clear debunking of the debunkers appeared this week in The Epoch Times: "Top 10 COVID Events of the Year: Revealing the Facts Unspoken and Unknown. Here are the top 10 major events that took place in relation to COVID in 2023." https://www.theepochtimes.com/health/top-covid-events-of-the-year-reveal-facts-unspoken-and-unknown-5551693?utm_source=ref_share&utm_campaign=copy

As your article delightfully explains, it's almost impossible to detect much COVID truth spewing from the Internet's black holes* (* "black hole" is an outer-space reference, people, not what a fact checker might think it is). Adding to your collection one more excerpt showing nitwit nattering media bias:

______

Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield died of brain cancer in October 2022. This Newsweek article by Shannon Power came up first after we searched Bing for “Tim Wakefield vaccinated”: Tim Wakefield's Death Prompts Spread of Vaccine Misinformation: https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/tim-wakefields-death-prompts-spread-of-vaccine-misinformation/ar-AA1hz4lu

See if you can detect any media bias in the excerpt below (*** italics *** added):

______

After former Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield died of brain cancer on October 1, ***conspiracy theorists*** are trying to link his death to the COVID-19 vaccine.

The 57-year-old was diagnosed with brain cancer, which was revealed ***without his consent*** by former teammate Curt Schilling on a podcast last week. On Sunday, the Red Sox announced Wakefield's death on social media.

***The National Health Institute has found that "there is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines cause cancer, lead to recurrence, or lead to disease progression. Furthermore, COVID-19 vaccines do not change your DNA (your genetic code)." The NIH added it was "not aware of any evidence that suggests vaccines" can cause a rise in tumor markers or signs of cancer recurrence. ***

______

So, again, it’s absolutely NOT... NOT ...NOT… the vaccine... NIH found NO evidence (they have not looked). We don't know what caused his brain cancer, but it definitely was NOT the vaccine. (Again, refer to Top 10 above.)

And the funny thing is, people fully accept the line, "we have NO IDEA what caused this cancer but it's definitely not the vaccine." It reminds me of the morning of my now-grown daughter's second grade parent-teacher conference. Her exact words as we walked out the door, "okay but if my teacher says anything bad about me, it wasn't me." HAHAHAHAHAHA I died.
