Overcoming whitewashes in government and media

When there's a whitewash in the media about an important subject it's up to private citizens to present the other side of the story on social media. They will be attacked for it, but it's the only moral thing to do. Without it people will be forced to make important decisions based on biased and incomplete information.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on vaccine safety:

"No television network will allow you talk about this. No newspaper in the country will allow me to write editorials on this. I can write editorials in almost any newspaper, but if I try to write an editorial on this issue, none of them will accept it. The [pharmaceutical] industry is so powerful. It spends twice on lobbying what the oil industry spends. It spends four times on lobbying than defense and aeronautics spend. So, it is by far the biggest political expenditures of any industry in this country. And it has been able to get rid of all the checks and balances that stand between a rapacious industry on the one hand, and our children on the other."
