Not American so I'm not that familiar with this outlet. I do remember the same woman on the same show was on point early on in the development of Omicron, giving a breakdown of the two flights that were diverted when flying out of Johannesberg. When those passengers were covid tested, a small amount were found to have Omicron, but the kicker was that 10% of passengers, 60-something out of 600, were found to have other earlier strains.
In other words, fully vaccinated people had already been spreading covid all over the world mostly asymptomatically, usually untested, and clearly doing so before Omicron. This wouldn't even be a surprise to anyone who had been looking at the infection and hospitalisation stats during Delta. The Hill were happy to report this damning evidence.
Many facts which should be completely fatal to the pro-vaxx narrative are completely out in the open and have been for a long time. Obviously there are venues such as Twitter and YT etc. where all discussion is tightly controlled. But the pedo enablers who run those platforms don't actually run the entire world. I'm rather disinclined to perceive this as a crafted dripfeed of damage control or expectation management, and more inclined to see it as a reflection that the remainder of the press and the viewing public are 1) completely stupid, in that they can't figure out the implications of damning facts that have been easily accessible for a long time, and 2) completely dickless, in that they simply choose not to repeat any of these facts when they encounter them.
Most of the information control is not outwardly imposed, it has instead been a massive collective failing in the pattern recognition capability of the human race, and a failure to use the brains and balls we're endowed with. Admittedly, it's happened in the wake of the biggest global propaganda campaign since WW2. Still, I don't think people should be so easily forgiven for their willingness to follow. I also don't think those who have simply gone on presenting their info and common sense conclusions as normal should be rewarded with suspicion - even if they are potentially untrustworthy news outlets - because they are not attempting to be all that heroic or miraculous. The pro-vaxx narrative just really is that unsalvageable. It's better to recalibrate and view these rare truth-tellers as the standard, too often unmet, and the persistent propagandists as extreme hostile elements actively trying to kill you.
