Source: AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta, file As Democrats and their media allies continue to “update” the “truth” on the origins of the Wuhan coronavirus as more and more evidence comes out linking a Chinese lab to the outbreak, the Washington Post is the latest outlet to revise its coverage history.
The “Democracy Dies in Darkness” gang over at the Jeff Bezos-owned newspaper quietly “corrected,” as Mediaite noted , the headline on a February 17, 2020 story about comments made by Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) during an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News.
As originally published, the Post’s headline declared “Tom Cotton keeps repeating a coronavirus conspiracy theory that was already debunked” and continued to bear that title as recently as May 28, according to archived versions accessed via Wayback Machine. But now a correction notice now appears on the story along with a significantly different headline that reads “Tom Cotton keeps repeating a coronavirus fringe theory that scientists have disputed.” What Tom Cotton spoke of was not, of course, debunked. It was just an inconvenient theory for the self-appointed gatekeepers who decide what is and isn’t tolerable for mainstream media narrative-building. And those powers did their darndest to shut down questions about the pandemic’s origins.
“Earlier versions of this story and its headline inaccurately characterized comments by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) regarding the origins of the coronavirus,” notes the Post in its correction. “The term ‘debunked’ and The Post’s use of ‘conspiracy theory’ have been removed because, then as now, there was no determination about the origins of the virus.” Well, there it is. “…then as now, there was no determination about the origins of the virus.” It’s a subtle admission that hack opinion is used interchangeably with factual news at the Washington Post.
Senator Cotton’s balanced comments were far from a full-throated endorsement of the theory that COVID may have originated in a lab and merely raised the possibility that the World Health Organization and Chinese Communist Party might not be the most trustworthy sources from which to draw definitive conclusions.
Even though the Washington Post knew at the time of publication […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
