Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
Ron Unz is a voice of conscience for history and science. In his essay — https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-why-the-media-fears-rfk-jr/ — Unz shows that science is governed by money and produces the explanations that money desires. Consequently, in place of truth we get lies. Unz reviews the AIDS controversy and finds that truth lost to money, and we were given in the place of truth an AIDS lie, just as we have been given a Covid lie.
Objective and honest scientists agree. Richard Horton, chief editor of The Lancet, wrote that financial considerations have become a central element of the scientific process. In other words, science has been corrupted by money and can no longer be trusted to deliver truth.
Unz writes:
“If Kennedy is correct, our entire American media has spent the last 35 years promoting and protecting a medical fraud that cost us many hundreds of billions of dollars and many hundreds of thousands of lives. As far back as the 1990s, a former Harvard professor had declared that the AIDS hoax was a worse scientific scandal than the notorious Lysenko fraud. So the media rightly fears that if they engage Kennedy on the issue, they themselves would suffer the total destruction of their reputation.
“Some 700,000 Americans died in the AIDS epidemic, but according to Kennedy the overwhelming majority of these victims were perfectly healthy individuals whose agonizing deaths were caused by the lethal but very lucrative AIDS drugs they were prescribed, a public health policy enthusiastically supported by our entire media establishment. More than half of those casualties were gay men, and gay activists are an influential and highly-organized political force. The desperate effort of the media to prevent Kennedy’s accusations from receiving any significant attention is quite understandable. . . .
“Kennedy should recognize that his true opponent in this 2024 campaign is not the elderly and enfeebled Joseph Biden nor the incompetent and unpopular Vice President Kamala Harris, both of whom were dragged across the 2020 finish line by their establishment backers. Kennedy’s true opponent is the American media, and they should be a primary target of his attacks.”
It is not just medical science that is corrupted. All areas of science are. Many physicists and chemists are involved in weapons development and are financed by the federal government and weapons manufacturers. This prevents them from questioning the official narrative of 9/11. Psychologists are employed by the CIA to develop torture techniques, and others work on mind control projects. So much of American research is financed by money that is agenda-driven. In such an environment science and scholarship become unreliable. Both risk being destroyed by money.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis.

It is not money, it is human nature.
smh… dumbest comment evah! It’s not the money….reeeeee
It’s not $$, it’s G.R.E.E.D.
Last time Unz wrote about it, he was still believing in the Covid “vaxx” and that it saved 1 million American lives…
The love of money is the root of all evil. God said it. It is true whether we agree or not.
The problem is that nobody goes to jail. Multi-million dollar fines to companies like Pfizer are just a cost of doing business, like a marketing budget. Put the Executives in jail when they commit fraud and it will start getting their attention. Same with the banksters, arms dealers, and techies that interfere with elections. Until these goons get fitted with orange jump suits, nothing will ever change.
The whole system is corrupt. The government is corrupted by big money by a process called regulatory capture. “The concept of Regulatory Capture (Reg Capture) typically refers to a phenomenon that occurs when a regulatory agency that is created to act in the public interest, instead advances the commercial or political concerns of special interest groups that dominate an industry or sector the agency is charged with regulating. When regulatory capture occurs, the interests of firms or political groups are given priority or favor over the interests of the public.” https://www.cfainstitute.org/en/advocacy/issues/regulatory-capture#sort=%40pubbrowsedate%20descending
The big financial organizations like BlackRock State Street and Vanguard along with Big Pharma rule “science” and medicine, the media creates a fake reality; alas few Americans are willing to think for themselves to escape the Matrix.
petro dollar largess has created an avenue for all manner of special interest groups and special interests to flourish while not contributing anything real to commerce. enabling idealogues and dragon riders to have careers and live comfortably but not actually doing anything. government expands accordingly with every new idea. when the dollar collapses and everything is re- valued accordingly there will be tens of millions of NGO employees and bureaucrats now living beyond their means having to adjust to unemployment or a huge paycut. add to that 40-50 million welfare/warfare state people making the same adjustments. all while “disenfranchised youth” are marauding. should be an interesting period. people will have their own ‘friends’ making demands of them.
