Episode 11: Kelley Krohnert On The CDC's Misinformation
Hi Illusion of Consensus readers,I am delighted to host Kelly Kroner, who has come to prominence during the pandemic as basically a citizen scientist, a leader in holding the CDC and other scientists accountable for basic errors in math and counting. It's been striking to watch professionals publish pieces — scare-mongering about the deadliness of COVID to children — and to watch Kelly take apart these claims, using data from the CDC, analyzing the basic standard sources.I've been admiring her advocacy for some time now on Twitter. In fact, I think I wrote a tweet saying that you're a national treasure, and I honestly believe that. It's been wonderful to watch. Enjoy my hour-long conversation with her.— Jay BhattacharyaSubscribe to our Substack:https://www.illusionconsensus.com/ This is a public episode.

Stay tuned for more exciting content: collaborative releases with Matt Taibbi, Alex Berenson, and Michael Shellenberger!— The Illusion of Consensus TeamHighlighted quote from Dr. Jay on the federal government threatening social media companies if they don’t follow their censorious orders:So what we found, for instance, was that these government officials were directly threatening these social media companies if they didn't comply....The implicit message was really clear.If you don't listen to us, if you don't censor the way we're telling you to censor, I mean, that's a nice company you have there. Wouldn't it be terrible if something were to happen to it? The threat was, I mean, it was just clear from every single one of those those emails that these companies, even though they were they sometimes look like they're cooperating, they were operating under a threat, a threat by the federal government that if they didn't comply, that they would be regulated out of existence. And around the same time, you had President Biden going around saying things like, Facebook is killing people by permitting misinformation.Full highlighted transcript available on our Substack (subscribe for weekly pieces and podcasts!): This is a public episode.
