[MCM] "News from Underground" attacked for "conspiracy
theories"
The
Times (UK) and Daily Mail have both come out with hit-pieces on me and other academics
who have questioned the Official Narrative of COVID-19, both pieces calling us
(of course) "conspiracy theorists," putting everyone in mortal
danger:
"Your
conduct risks undermining morale during the crisis and reducing the public’s resolve
to stick to the rules put in place to reduce the spread of the disease. Your 'News
From Underground' website has promoted numerous conspiracies [sic] including
that [the] coronavirus 'may be an artificially
created bioweapon,' that this was planned by Bill
Gates to increase his power, and that there is a Gates/Big Pharma/CDC/WHO
complex promoting vaccines."
A few
observations:
Although
they're owned by different oligarchic clans—the "downscale" Mail by
the Rothermeres,
the "upscale" Times by Murdoch (whose Australian has now
recycled the Times
piece)—both outlets have acted jointly here, as the Mail
piece claims that I
was "approached for comment," though it was not the Mail
reporter, but the Times
reporter who "approached" me, with the inquisitorial
email that you'll
find below, and that had gone to spam, so that I didn't see it
until now.
If
I had seen it, I would have first asked where exactly I had ever written that
COVID-19
"may be an artificially created bioweapon,"
as those are not my
words, but were
contrived by the reporter. I have sent to this list, and posted
on the website for News from
Underground, some pieces arguing that this
new coronavirus
seems to have been engineered for biowarfare
purposes.
Rather
than "approach" their authors (such as Francis Boyle), the Times
scribe chose to cast
me as the source of that malevolent speculation, so
as to make it easier to link me
with my friend Piers Robinson and his
malevolent views on 9/11
as a state-run pretext for the "war on terror"
(views that I do share).
Leaving
aside the question as to where I've ever said that "this was planned
by Bill Gates to increase his
power" (a charge too idiotic even to discuss), I also
would have asked the
Times' amanuensis is he's ever actually read anything
about the
"Gates/Big Pharma/CDC/WHO complex promoting
vaccines"—a
juggernaut as
incontestable as the US military-industrial complex, the global
oil cartel, or Hollywood; and yet
this animal from Rupert Murdoch's stable
writes to me as if
that vast machine (which advertises heavily throughout
Murdoch's
commercial media) were just a figment of the warped imaginations
of some "academics"
murderously intent on "undermining morale during the
crisis," as if we
were a pack of Kremlin agents.
I
also would have told the Times' man that he was—is—quite clearly
following the old CIA
playbook by using the phrase "conspiracy theory"
as a tactic to smear anyone who
dares to question the state's "truth,"
whether that Big Lie
concerns JFK/Dallas (Oswald did it), 9/11 (Osama
bin Laden did it), US elections
(never stolen), "Russia-gate" (Putin did
it), 5G (perfectly safe), vaccines
(all perfectly safe), or—as now,
inescapably—COVID-19, the
"Chinese virus" that naturally arose out
of that foul "wet market"
in Wuhan, and that will kill us all unless we
(a)
close our minds to all dissenting views or
inconvenient information
on that subject, and (b) bend over
and get vaccinated.
That's
what I would have told the Times reporter—adding that the new
coronavirus isn't half as
dangerous as his attempt to help keep everybody
in the dark about it.

Dear
Professor Mark Crispin Miller,
I
hope you and your family are well.
The
Times is preparing an article looking at your involvement in promoting
conspiracy theories about the coronavirus.
Would
you like to comment?
Your
conduct risks undermining morale during the crisis and reducing the public’s
resolve to stick to the rules put in place to reduce the spread of the disease.
Your
"News From Underground" website has promoted
numerous conspiracies including that coronavirus
"may be an artificially created bioweapon",
that this was planned by Bill Gates to increase his power, and that there is a
Gates/Big Pharma/CDC/WHO complex promoting vaccines.
Also,
you are a director of the Organisation for Propaganda
Studies.
Your
organisation the OPS has tweeted a link to your
colleague Piers Robinson's interview to Empire & Geopolitics broadcast in
the past week in which he suggested the coronavirus
might be part of hybrid warfare.
He
said of the World Trade Centre attacks that it was “pretty obvious now that the
official story is incorrect. The question is who was involved in influencing,
arranging, and which states including from within the US political system. And
if that's the case with 9/11 it’s perfectly possible there are actors at play
with regard to this. Some people have talked about bioweapons
and so on. All of that is possible.
“The
US has been building facilities and so on. This is one of the things which we
need to keep our eye on through all of this, the fact that especially if we are
in a hybrid warfare situation, are there actors who might be using technologies
in order to create modified viruses and so on and use them in a strategic way.
It’s a possibility. I wouldn’t rule it out especially given concerns that we
now have in relation to 9/11. We live in a world where people do dark deeds.”
He
described covid-19 as “a low fatality virus. … There’s no indication that it’s
significantly different with what we see from major flu outbreaks every year
across the West” but “propagandistic information pouring through the mainstream
media” had created “so much hype around it, there is so much fear”.
He
said the public was “very malleable” and that “not to believe everything is
more important than it has ever been at this critical moment for the West.”
His
interviewer Hrvoje Morić,
calling the virus “covid-1984”, claimed there had been evidence that 9/11 was
known in advance and queried why the US war-gamed a pandemic in the months
before coronavirus appeared.
The
channel’s previous broadcast, which also suggested coronavirus
was a biological weapon originating from North America, was deleted by YouTube
after being watched by 300,000 viewers.
If
you wish to respond, please do so by 14.00 BST, 09.00 New York time tomorrow
(Thursday).
Thank
you
