B-Man Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 THE MEDIA’S VAPING ALARMISM HAD LETHAL CONSEQUENCES, NEW STUDY FINDS. FTA: If all one read was mainstream media coverage of the rise of vaping, you’d think it’s a deadly, addictive trend that’s hooking teenagers and killing people by the thousands. You’d also happen to be wrong. The great panic over “vaping illness” and “vaping deaths” in 2019 was exhibit A of the media’s mythmaking. While tragic, these deaths and illnesses that were used to stir up fear over vaping almost exclusively turned out to be related to black market THC products, not legal vaping products. While it’s certainly not the healthiest habit, the fact is vaping is nowhere near as bad for you as traditional cigarette smoking. Yes, it often involves nicotine consumption, but nicotine isn’t what gives you cancer—black tar and the other carcinogens included in traditional cigarettes are what cause cancer. So, vaping doesn’t have most of the health risks associated with smoking. Indeed, public health experts have even estimated that vaping is 95% healthier than traditional cigarette smoking. But, in large part thanks to the media’s panic porn, the public is totally misinformed about this reality. Published in the National Bureau of Economic Research, the aforementioned new study examined the “information shock” created by the media’s misleading, hysterical coverage of the 2019 “vaping-related” illness outbreak. “We find that after the outbreak, consumer perceptions of the riskiness of e-cigarettes sharply increased, so that in contrast to almost all experts, the majority of consumers perceive e-cigarettes to be relatively and absolutely riskier than cigarettes,” the authors report. That’s right: The public has it exactly backward. The study further concludes that the media’s alarmism led to a 30% reduction in demand for e-cigarettes and a 30% decline in their usage for quitting traditional smoking. As a result, the experts report that “the reduced smoking cessation due to the information shock will in turn increase smoking-related illness and death.” https://www.based-politics.com/2022/07/23/vaping-news-media-alarmism-misled-the-public-study-finds/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanNC Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 To bolster his claims all you need to do is look at how GG is attacked for pointing this out. The guy is dyed in the wool classic liberal, yet for pointing out the obvious lying and corruption in the legacy media he's branded as a far right winger. It's laughable. Trump absolutely broke them, just like he did to so many here. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That it was just another day in Washington in a chat with a media personality, no pushback whatsoever speaks volumes about what goes on behind closed doors. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
