Which non-msm news sources do you consider to be trustworthy? 1 minute ago, top4718 said: Explain why it was nonsense for a soap opera to be pushing a vaccine that's caused death and injury? That’s not the nonsensical bit. I was referring to your latching into it in order to avoid answering questions about your trusted sources. You are still doing it now. You aren’t fooling anyone, unless you’ve managed a bit of self- deception. Are we ever going to find out which sources you use for your deeply flawed information?

I'm not asking for your views on all news organisations. I'm asking about the BBC specifically Do you trust the BBC? Do you trust them to tell you the truth?

BBC journos just accepted pretty much everything the government spokesmen said, or Labour, or the suppressionist "experts". Julia Hartley Brewer was the only one who rigorously questioned them, she was like a terrier and I almost felt sorry for some of those "experts" who just were not used to being questioned (as in genuinely questioned), they were like rabbits in car headlights. I have mixed feelings about JHB but during Covid she was the standout star. So you like JHB when she says what you want to hear but other times you don’t like her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean there weren't reports like this? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-54442386 or this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000l80g or Heneghan and Woolhouse comments in here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-54785032 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh. You said you knew what was in broadcast media because there were TV clips on social media. Changing the subject already. Personally if I see something on TV or on social media that makes claims that are interesting and says there's evidence I go to the source of the evidence, rather than just believe what someone else is telling me about it. What interview transcript did you have in mind? You haven't answered my question about how you decide which of those social media sources are trustworthy.
