AP Photo/Gregory Payan Joe Rogan just lit up CNN again with a post.
Back in September when Rogan came down with COVID, he posted a video to Instagram talking about how he had been prescribed a cocktail of things including ivermectin, and he said he recovered quickly.
As we reported back then, liberal media attacked him for talking about ivermectin. CNN lied about him and ivermectin, saying that he took a “horse dewormer” that was meant for “ livestock .” They did not say that his doctor had prescribed a drug for him which is used by people, albeit not approved for COVID.
Rogan then had CNN’s Sanjay Gupta on his podcast and ripped him apart for CNN lying about him. CNN issued a deranged statement trying to justify themselves, and Rogan just leveled them again with the truth.
Now, Rogan has posted a video on his Instagram hitting out at CNN for the way he was depicted in their story, contrasting the way he was depicted on CNN, juxtaposed against the Instagram video that he posted, with the words, “Yellow Journalism” and “#fakenews.” You can see how the CNN version appears to make him look darker, a little distorted and unwell.
I double-checked the CNN version — which you can see on CNN’s site — and yes, it appears darker than the Instagram which you can see here, so you can check it yourself.
Here are my screenshots of one right next to the other: Apparently, this isn’t the first time that Rogan has raised this point, and the AP fact-checked the claim back in September and ruled there was no evidence of color manipulation in the CNN segment. You can check out what they say, but they don’t explain the clear difference. “The image was not altered using Photoshop or any filter,” CNN […]
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
