From Liz Wheeler via X: "If reports are true—and I pray they are—that RFK Jr. is gonna ban Big Pharma ads on TV, a massive society earthquake is about to happen on two fronts.
#1: The corporate media will fail. You will watch before your very eyes as highly paid MSM anchors are fired, networks panic & some shut down, and paychecks aren’t paid. The entire business of MSM is a fake business. It’s artificially propped up by massive ad dollars from Pharma ads. Not because of the return on investment that Pharma sees peddling their drugs on TV, but rather because of WHY Pharma buys so many TV ads in the first place, which is to prevent reporting on Pharma corruption.
#2: Accordingly, when the gravy chain of Pharma ad dollars to TV networks stops, we will suddenly see reporting on the corruption of Big Pharma, drugs, vaccines, medical associations like AAP & AMA, and govt regulation agencies like CDC & FDA—reporting that was previously prohibited because the ad money Pharma paid networks was really just a pay off for silence. Pharma knew they didn’t sell drugs off those commercials, it was a money laundering scheme to keep reporters silent about the abuses coming out of Pharma. Even Roger Ailes once admitted he didn’t let his people on Fox report negatively on Pharma because it would destroy their bottom line.
If reports are true—and I pray they are—that RFK Jr. is gonna ban Pharma ads on TV, the double revolution of Big Pharma & MSM is about to begin.
Can’t wait."

Seeing as how you are consistantly full of it, hedging against is where smart money goes now.
Well good, at least you have put your market down that pharmacy ads will be regulated into illegality.

Easy to measure who is “full of it” in this case.

While feeling a little under the weather the other day, I found myself couched in front of the television for about 4½-5 hours. After trying to tolerate vast amounts of annoying advertisements, I started pondering what if.
What if one was a mindless imbecile that believed and had to comply and adhere to these ads...I put myself in the situation.
Here's what happened..

I bought Balance of Nature 8 times

Listened to countless "doctors" with name embroidered white lab coats to
purchase enough supplements to alter my DNA

Called 5 Personal injury lawyers

Placed bets on 3 different sports betting apps

Saved $700 on car insurance by switching insurance company, then saved $700 more with a different company, and then yet another $950 with another company...I think I made money on that one!

Bought 7 My Pillows

Bought Gold

Ordered Dominos pizza

Bought Farmers Dog food for my pooch

Made an appointment to get my bathroom remodeled

Replaced the windows in my house

Countless charity donations, $11 a month here, a couple of $19 a month there, $45 and $50 a month...etc

Bought Cell phones and plans from 3 different companies

Got new furniture and bedding, and a couple new cars

Called my doctor for new drugs on the market with fancy names and large choreographed dances that cured my ailments, then called him back for even more drugs to treat the side effects of the drugs prescribed. (Seems the only people working in Hollywood these days are doing Pharm commercials)

I started getting a little worried about how I was going to pay for all this when it happened...
I took out a Reverse mortgage on my house.

This statement adds more to this thread than you may realize........some "imbeciles" here appear surprised to learn that everything posted on "X" may not be true. 😂

Only two countries allow unlimited advertising direct to consumers from pharmaceutical companies...the US and New Zealand.

In 2016 alone, 6.4 billion in advertising...

Is it wrong that I know which channel you watched based on your buying habits?
