Publisher’s Note: Even after eight weeks of a Vermont state government imposed policy of Lockdown, few Vermont news organizations seem willing or able to move beyond uncritical acceptance of the official CDC/WHO COVID narrative. Instead, what we get are endless streams of “COVID stories” that, wittingly or not, enforce citizen compliance instead of thoughtful questioning. John Kirby’s “Perspectives on the Pandemic” series, meanwhile, continues to provide simple but powerful investigative journalistic stories, as this quietly explosive interview with Sam Hosseini attests. Del Bigtree’ s weekly program THE HIGH WIRE, meanwhile, brings energy and courage to asking hard questions with remarkable co-hosts and guests (including Dr. Dolores Cahill) while avoiding the usual manufactured RED/BLUE false binary. So much to learn from both of these videos.
