Beating a dead raccoon dogCNN etc pretend a new study helps prove Covid probably didn't come from a lab. Nope. Worse, they trumpeted the same nonsense - from some of the same authors! - in November. And July. And...
On Saturday, a new 67-page “preprint” purporting to show Sars-Cov-2 did NOT leak from a lab was published online.
Naturally, the same media outlets that called the lab leak theory anti-Chinese propaganda for two years were all over this study. At one point, the New York Times website gave it basically equal billing to the war in Ukraine.
What new evidence did the researchers find in this preprint - which was of course funded by Dr. Anthony Fauci and the National Institutes of Health? A coronavirus variant in bats that nearly matches Sars-Cov-2? An Chinese promise to open the Wuhan labs to a credible outside investigation?
Nope. The authors made a map. (1/7)
