Partial Response: Media Matters "Corrects" their article about Steve Kirsch.
Media Matters has changed their article about Steve Kirsch.
Media Matters has altered their article about Steve Kirsch.
This was it beforehand:
This is the “corrected” article:
At least they have provided a change log in small print (I missed it initially), confessing to changing their assertion that Steve lied. Steve Kirsch might be wrong about the data, or the meaning of the data, but to claim that he lied is unreasonable and out of simple human decency (and probably fear of a lawsuit) they should provide an apology as well: I have absolutely no doubt that Dr. Kirsch sincerely believes what he is saying.
They have also provided “links” to various responses to Steve’s claims, each of which has serious shortcomings. I will quickly assess these claims.
Link 1: Do Pfizer vaccines "kill" 2 people for every 1 saved? Evaluating Steve Kirsch claims.
It is notable that this article was written in October 2021. It is almost a year out of date and there is plenty more evidence now to support the idea that the vaccines kill more people than they save.
The main argument is basically that Steve’s numbers may be uncertain - that Steve’s conclusions depend on certain assumptions. But this author does not tell us what the proper numbers should be, for instance, the VAERS under-reporting factor, which Steve says is 41x (a figure that comes from a peer reviewed study.)
Even if this article did prove that the vaccine does not kill 2 for every 1 person vaccinated (which is; I think it fails, but it’s what the covid data science article claims to prove ), the article still does not actually prove that Steve is wrong when he says the vaccines have killed hundreds of thousands of people.
Jeffrey Morris says: “Bold and dramatic claims like these require high levels of evidence to substantiate, and the presented analyses do not even come close to what is required to support them.” Well, actually, Jeffrey, when dealing with Phase 2 or 3 trials of experimental vaccines it is usual to assume that the vaccine is the cause of the adverse event, and what we have with the Covid vaccines is essentially a huge phase 2 trial, involving a whole planet, because let’s face it, none of the Pfizer trials were worth the paper they were written on. I have also outlined here the lacklustre Novavax trials, published in a peer review journal by Novavax themselves, which lead one to believe Novavax may well be virtually ineffective for Omicron and still has quite a high myocarditis rate of 1 in 7500. Etcetera etcetera.
Let me add, the FDA claim was made about Steve Kirsch by another person, not by Steve Kirsch, and that person corrected the error. To bring this up as if Steve Kirsch himself was claiming it is basically an ad hominem attack and therefore completely spurious, illogical, bad reasoning.
Link 2: Reuters Fact Check-COVID-19 vaccines do not kill more people than they save; FDA experts did not make this false claim
Another September 2021 article. Very old. Old data. Old facts. Not even worth the carbon dioxide that reading it spews into the atmosphere when the power station provides the power that illuminates the computer screen. Not that I’m worried about that anyway.
Anyway, again the Reuters article brings up the FDA claim. In the context of the Media Matters article, this is irrelevant and wrong; and also shows them up to be too lazy to put the arguments in their own article. So the FDA claim is nothing to do with Steve Kirsch. Throw at least a third of this reuters article in the bin.
They then deal with the VAERS adverse events. Well, since we now know that Covid death figures have been vastly inflated, by the inclusion of people who died from gunshots, cancer and trauma from car accidents, and since we also know that many Doctors were afraid of reporting adverse events because of their careers, we can discount all of the Reuters arguments here.
Reuters brings up Johnson and Johnson, which we now know has essentially been deprecated in many countries because of concerns about safety.
We have all known people who have died suddenly in close proximity to their vaccination; just dropped dead, like the Saudi Ambassador and countless sports people and the people suffering from the mysterious Sudden Adult Death Syndrome. How about stopping denying it, Reuters, and start finding out what the real figures are? At least Steve Kirsch is trying to make an estimate of this.
We also know now that the vaccines cause myocarditis. It’s in the Pfizer trial documents, it’s in the trial data, Novavax has more cases than Pfizer and many think Pfizer is probably lying about their figures, it wouldn’t be the first time. And the British health data about the Astra Zeneca blood clots here: https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/zion-fatal-brain-injury-astrazeneca-covid-vaccine-injury/ And we know that the safe and effective medicines Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine were suppressed.
The CDC is not a credible source of information. They didn’t even know how long the dangerous Spike protein stayed in the body. As El Gato Malo’s Substack shows:

AFTER:
6. I rate this Reuters fact check false.
Link 3.Politifact "Pfizer vaccine kills more people than it saves."
This article is so slim on facts it’s not even worth noticing and let me make the point that since the vaccines cause myocarditis, a fact we know is true, and since we know myocarditis causes death, how about giving us the true figures of deaths, Politifact? This article also is woefully out of date. September 2021.
Link 4. Arxiv.org article saying VAERS is not useful for estimating deaths.
https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/2202/2202.04204.pdf
Well at least Steve Kirsch references actual peer reviewed studies in his evidence. This article makes the ridiculous assertion that VAERS is not useful for estimating deaths. Well I should bloody well hope that it would be useful, because otherwise Americans have no clue how many people are being killed by the Covid vaccines. <sarc>
And by the way, Arxiv.org is for ‘studies’ that didn’t make it through peer review.
Link 5. Ad hominem article in technology review.
This is not even a study, neither does it deal in data, it is basically an ad hominem character assassinating bio of Steve Kirsch.
Media Matters fails to put forth any decent evidence or any estimate of how many people are killed by the vaccines.
We all know people are being killed by the vaccines. How many, Media Matters?
Inadequately Corrected First Fact Check Hall of Fame
I am keeping Media Matters in the Inadequately Corrected Fact Check Hall of Fame. None of these articles deal with the more recent data; they are all woefully out of date and we all know that there is more to this. There is much evidence that the vaccines cause myocarditis and heart problems. There is much evidence now that they cause problems with the T cell response to cancer. (You just have to go through my articles, Steve Kirsch’s articles, Unacceptable Jessica’s articles, to see the studies that prove these things. But I think all of us now also know people personally who have suffered very debilitating side effects and death. )
Indeed, none of the articles referenced by Media Matters deal with the things we all see and know - young people and athletes collapsing left right and centre. Justin Bieber and Celine Dion, no longer able to perform. The Saudi Ambassador dying suddenly mid-sentence in a press conference. We know people are dying from the vaccine. Tell us how many. Steve Kirsch is making an estimate. All of these articles merely say, “Oh, he must be wrong, the vaccines are safe and effective.”
How about telling us how many people actually have died, Media Matters? No, you don’t know. Or just look around you.
CHANGE LOG
At 12:47 am Mon 22 Aug
Edited out the term Weasel Words:
I changed the title from: ‘Weasel Words Response: Media Matters "Corrects" their article about Steve Kirsch.’ to ‘Partial Response: Media Matters "Corrects" their article about Steve Kirsch.’ and changed the title of the hall of infamy section from ‘Weasel Words “Corrected” <Sarc> First Fact Check Hall of Infamy.’ to ‘Inadequately Corrected Hall of Fame’ because Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:22 were pricking my conscience: ‘but I say unto you, that every one who is angry with his brother shall be in danger of the judgment; and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council; and whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire.’ Using the term Weasel Words was a little too close, perhaps, to saying ‘Raca’ (an Aramaic term of contempt) and, despite their erroneous fact check, Media Matters are still surely my brothers and sisters in God’s sight on this earth. I apologise, therefore, for my original title, which I think was too offensive, and I will continue to pray for the people at Media Matters that God will bless them and bring them to a knowledge of the truth, and that He will bring them to a place where their eyes can be opened to what is really going on.
Why this is important
Let me add, as well, that when we’re talking about vaccine injuries and deaths, we are talking about real people’s lives. It is so much more important to be correct in these matters, because of what is at stake; I dislike criticising anyone, but Media Matters needs to consider carefully what they are writing. People deserve to know the facts about the cause of the death of their relatives, for God’s sake.
Strengthened evidence
I also strengthened some of the evidence I was presenting, e.g. the Novavax section, etc.
