Reporter David Axe publishes literally the same headline, every month for a year – and all of them have been wrong
This reporter for Forbes and The Daily Beast has literally written the same article every month for the past year, with the same scary, hysterical fear inducing headline. And he’s been wrong every time.
Read this thread to see many more examples, nearly every month, with variations on the same theme: ☠️ Mark ? Lindsay ☠️ on Twitter: “This sounds so scary, the nightmare variant is here, XBB https://t.co/X7Kf6eY3ce” / Twitter
Update: And David Axe and his latest fake news headlines:
Update – And another one in October 2022
David Axe is wrong, month after month after month after month, with the same hysterical, scary and nonsensical headlines every time. This is not journalism – this is bull shit.
(I checked his Twitter feed and he spends much of his time promoting Democratic party candidates and initiatives. Unbiased much? This does not look like a good reporter – at all.)
This is U.S. media in a nutshell – its primary purpose is to find something possibly wrong with the world and spin good news into negativity – or just make up bull shit scary headlines, month after month. And then write news reports that America has an anxiety problem. There is zero self-awareness among the media elite.
UPDATE DECEMBER 2022
David Axe only writes scary, hysterical negativity that is total nonsense:
- Monkeypox: Virus Can Jump Species, Could Find Home in Pets – Rolling Stone
- Save Countless Human Lives. Vaccinate Birds. – Rolling Stone
- Monkeypox: After Covid-19 Pandemic, Experts Worry About New Disease – Rolling Stone
- Statewide Covid-19 Mask Mandates Are Being Lifted. What’s Next? – Rolling Stone.
Ironically, this story is about loss of trust in government and public health. That loss of trust has been aided by nonsensical BS news reporting, such as that done by David Axe- he engaged in pointless and wrongheaded fear mongering, month after month after month. What happened after mask mandates were lifted in the few remaining states? Cases went down for the next 3 months until the BA.4/BA.5 wave (when I had Covid in late June).
Update: August 2023
