Exclusive: Festival chairman says documentary "censored" by "powerful forces"
A major international film festival received threatening calls from “high government officials” in Houston warning them not to show the controversial anti-vaccine film that was recently pulled by the Tribeca Film Festival.
Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe, directed by former physician Dr. Andrew Wakefield, explores the link between vaccines and autism and alleges a cover-up involving the CDC.
