Washington Post Becomes Latest Media Outlet To Walk Back "Debunked Conspiracy Theory" Wuhan Lab Leak Coverage
Doesn't covering up for a crime where millions died due to criminally reckless negligence or criminal intent also qualify as a crime?The Post becomes the latest in a growing list of media outlets and ‘fact checkers’ that have been forced to walk back their insistence that the lab leak theory was an impossibility.
Last week, Facebook announced that it was reversing a policy that banned posts which claimed COVID-19 was “man-made” just months after asserting that the theory had been “debunked.”
Politifact was also forced to pull a ‘fact check’ that claimed it had “debunked” the lab leak origin theory of COVID-19.
Washington Post journalist Glenn Kessler faced ridicule after being forced to admit the lab leak theory was “credible” after previously attacking Senator Ted Cruz for circulating it.
However, some are still ludicrously clinging on to other ways to dismiss the whole issue, with the New York Times’ Apoorva Mandavilli tweeting last week that it was “racist” to discuss it at all.
They should all got to prison. Especially Zuck.8 U.S. Code § 3 - Accessory after the fact

Except as otherwise expressly provided by any Act of Congress, an accessory after the fact shall be imprisoned not more than one-half the maximum term of imprisonment or (notwithstanding section 3571) fined not more than one-half the maximum fine prescribed for the punishment of the principal, or both; or if the principal is punishable by life imprisonment or death, the accessory shall be imprisoned not more than 15 years.
