The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox Holy smokes. Suspicions confirmed.
Former Pharma insider tells Tucker Carlson that the true goal of pharma ads on TV is not to sell drugs but to BUY OFF the news media.
This is described as an "open secret" within the pharmaceutical industry.
TUCKER: You're saying that pharma buys TV spots not to convince people to ask for specific drugs from their physicians, but to subvert the news business?
CALLEY MEANS: This is an open secret working for pharma.
TUCKER: I never thought of that.
CALLEY MEANS: This is an open secret working for pharma. This is an open secret. The kind of silly ads you see between the news breaks, the points of that is not — it's largely to impact the customer. But the pharma has already got that. They've already bought off the doctors. They're good on that.
No, this is an open secret. The news ad spending from pharma is a public relations lobbying tactic, essentially to buy off the news. They're not investigating pharma. The news has become basically a referee. That you are a terrible anti-science luddite for asking why the shots that we require our kids to get, that fundamentally by their own advertising change the immune system of that child for life...
To even ask that question, the news referees that and calls you anti-science. When the two largest vaccine makers in the country are literally criminal enterprises, GlaxoSmithKline and Merck, in the past five years, have settled two of the largest criminal penalties in American corporate history for bribing doctors and creating misleading research for the two largest vaccine makers. So you literally have the media playing referee that you can't even ask a question.
TUCKER: If you have a vaccine injury and many people have, including some I know very well, even a profound vaccine injury, you're not allowed to complain about it.
CALLEY MEANS: No, you're "anti-science."
TUCKER: Even if it can be shown to us that this is a vaccine injury?
CALLEY MEANS: The media plays referee because they're funded by so, on all levels.
TUCKER: This is very dark, Calley Means.
