'Horse Tranquilizer': CNN's Abby Phillip Tries To Dunk On Covid Skeptics, Fails Badly
Posted • December 17, 2024: Part of the reason that there is a crisis of confidence in the media is because of the sense of absolute moral certitude with which they look down upon anyone who strays from the preordained consensus, even as they themselves spit out active disinformation. As CNN’s Abby Phillip demonstrates, sometimes these efforts fail hilariously.
Watch as Abby Phillip accuses Covid skeptics of pushing…horse tranquilizer? Either Phillip is suggesting here (without evidence) that people took xylazine (street name: tranq) to treat Covid, OR she is repeating the debunked smear of the powerful antiviral ivermectin as horse medicine- a common smear aired on CNN at the height of the pandemic. In fact, when Joe Rogan talks about how his eyes were opened to the media’s tendency to destroy those who dissent from the official narrative, he often cites his run-in with CNN over their prime time hosts’ insistence on saying that Rogan took “horse paste”, which resulted in Rogan calling CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta out on his eponymous podcast.
Fast forward to 2024, and Abby Phillip couldn’t even be bothered to get the equine pejorative right while trying to contain Scott Jennings’s correct explanation of the deceptions that underlie skepticism of the current public health regime. Discussing the things that led to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. being the nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services on CNN gets you a performance of that institutional arrogance in real time. Abby Phillip tried to mock public health skeptics and shut down a reasonable discussion of the ongoing crisis, failing badly on both counts.
