Posts that I especially recommend for Monday, November 8, 2021

Dr Peter Doshi, associate editor of the British Medical Journal(BMJ), discusses the total lack of scientific process behind the development and roll out Covid vaccines in a meeting called by Senator Ron Johnson on the topic of vaccine mandates.

Peter Doshi is an associate professor of pharmaceutical health services research in the School of Pharmacy and associate editor at The BMJ. His research focuses on policies related to drug safety and effectiveness evaluation in the context of regulation, evidence-based medicine, and debates over access to data.

I spent nearly 30 minutes trying to ascertain the ownership of NBC which is theoretically owned by Comcast. I couldn't remember the name of Tegna Inc. which owns the NBC affiliates, but I finally discovered it on my own website using search engines. (You may have glanced at the black and white notice following many of their programs on NBC affiliated stations.) It was conveniently located near the CIA headquarters in Langley, VA, but has moved further down the road to Tyson, VA (you will see Langley in the right corner).
 
You can see the complicated picture of how the ruling class and their major corporations manage to hide their concentration of ownership/control of media.
  • Young Voters Done With Biden & Democrats featuring Jimmy Dore commenting on some news from his channel on YouTube (11:33). My reaction: Dore argues for a new party forgetting once again that the ruling capitalist class has an iron hold on US elections. The chances that a new political party can challenge the established two parties is infinitesimal.
Investigative journalist Tim Shorrock discusses CSIS's (Center for Strategic and International Studies) links to the CIA, as well as how it's managed to shape public opinion and foreign policy with regard to the DPRK [Democratic People's Republic of Korea].

  • COP26: Emitters Sue To Chill Climate Measures by Manuel Pérez-Rocha from Consortium News. (Note: I tried and failed to access this article on Inequality, the original source as I always do, so I had to post it from Consortium News.)
  • NATO Malign Influence Corrupting Serbian Academe by Stephen Karganovic from Strategic Culture Foundation. My reaction: Dr. Miloš Ković, a faculty member in the history department at Belgrade, Serbia, simply opposes the NATO-sponsored re-writing of history.
