This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
More evidence tonight
that its always the people you
most suspect,
Andrew Cuomo, governor of New
York, is every bit the creep. You
thought he was and more
talks like a mafia leader and
act like one
eleven sexual harassment claims
against him public today
go to CNN right now and watch
Jeffrey Toobin of all people
talk about how creepy governor
Cuomo is.
This country could not get
better
a lot more on that
first tonight welcome to Tucker
Carlson tonight coming to you
from Budapest, Hungary
last summer, as the covid
pandemic raged throughout the
United States. People who read
the New York Times noticed
something strange.
Hundreds of articles going back
decades disappeared.
The New York Times considers
itself a living historical
record and maintained searchable
archives going back before the
civil wars, but articles
disappeared.
What was, in those articles?
Every one was a propaganda piece
paid for by the Chinese
Communist Party.
You are seeing one on your
screen right now.
Why would the New York Times
Americas Paper of record print
propaganda from this regime and
pretend it was a news article
for money?
Financial filings show the New
York Times made more than
one hundred thousand dollars a month from this
garbage.
Those payments were not
disclosed,
they were hidden from New York
Times readers and only
uncovered by the Washington Free
Beacon.
The New York Times was not the
only organization that did this.
The Chinese Communist Party paid
twenty dollars million to the l dot a times
and the Chicago Tribune and the
Washington Post
Twitter also received checks
from the chinese government
totaling hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
These arrangements continued for
years
last summer they stopped
abruptly
the New York Times tried to
hide the evidence. It ever
happened
why
the New York Times wont say
we do not discuss revenue beyond
our quarter. Final earnings
report
we kept looking
first here is some context for
what the New York Times did.
This is what mainstream news
coverage in the United States
looked like most of last year.
See if you can tell the
difference between this and what
you might see on chinese state
television.
The president referred to the
coronavirus as a foreign virus.
I think its going to come
across to a lot of Americans as
smacking of xenophobia.
He thinks the only path now
is to declare the virus public
enemy one and paint it in racist
terms.
The xenophobia and the racism
is a common thing and its
dangerous
its a problem and its scary.
I want to call that out.
Why do you keep calling this
the chinese virus
its racist,
its not racist at all,
not at all?
It comes from China
thats. Why,
as this virus emerged
from Central China to kill
Americans in huge numbers and
people throughout the West NEWS
organizations in this country
made the same aggressively
pro China. Noise,
Polit CO, hired a full time
shills for headlines like this,
the american system faultered.
How is this difference from what
the Chinese would right about
themselves?
Its not different.
The american media were
hysterical on the question of
where the coronavirus came from.
Under no circumstances were you
allowed to entertain the
possibility that Covid nineteen came
from a lab in Wuhan China.
That was a conspiracy threo.
All of this footage is from
early 2020.
Robert Redfield believes
Covid nineteen originates from a lab
in Wuhan, even though there is no
evidence to support the theory.
The lab leak is not
a plausible theory.
The theory that the virus
originated in a lab in Wuhan
China,
but Dr Fauci said this virus
could not have been artificially
manipulated.
Scientists agrees this
corners was not man made.
It came from a natural source,
not from a lab
people like the phrase escape
from a lab.
It sounds like they are talking
about. A man made virus that
China was weaponizing that got
out of control.
It wasnt just dumb
people on cable news
that was Anthony Fauci and Scott
Gottlieb, who ran the FDA.
These are people in positions of
authority and respected as
scientists whose word carries
great moral weight.
They all lied.
The New York Times led the way
on this,
a piece on unheard dot: com,
deconstructs, the New York
Timess roll on the propaganda
effort on behalf of China.
The times dismissed the lab
leak theory as a fringe theory
only lunatics, believe it,
the New York Times reporter
called the theory, the kind of
conspiracy once reserved for the
tinfoil hatters.
You are a nut case. If you think
its possible,
then the paper published an
op ed by the virologist paid by
Anthony Fauci, to experiment on
bat. Coronaviruses
talk about a conflict of
interests.
He denyed it came from a lab. He
was funding. He knew better, he blamed the
he knew better. He blamed the
pandemic on deforestation, in
other words, on poor people
lies like this became less
tenable.
People noticed that a level four
virology world in Wuhan was
conducting dangerous experiments
on bat coronaviruses, with fewer
safe guards than a dentist
office has in the United States.
They toyed that Tony Fauci
helped to pay for those
experiments
thats. When the times deleted.
The articles
two high level employees said
the paper stopped any
investigation into evidence that
the coronavirus came from that
lab in Wuhan
one whistleblower said I
suggested we investigate the
origins of Covid.
I was told it was dangerous to
run a piece about the origins of
the coronavirus.
There was resistance to running
anything that could suggest
covid. Nineteen was man made or leaked
from the lab.
It was untouchable from
everywhere said another times,
source
the fact that Trump embraced it
made it a no go
according to whistleblowers. The
biggest factor was the fact that
the New York Times was taking
money from the chinese communist
government,
so they called the story. That
was not a theory but real.
The House Foreign Affairs
Committee suggested that the
coronavirus escaped from the lab
in Wuhan in December. Two thousand and nineteen
athletes from around the world
were in Wuhan and brought Covid
home with them.
Why didnt? We know this
because of a lying campaign on
behalf of the government of
China,
Peter who is still used by the
Washington Post as an
authority on the origin of
covid.
They describe him as the public
face of a Chinese Communist
Party disinformation campaign
designed to suppress public
discussion about a lab leak.
The committee discovered
evidence that the Wuhan
Institute of Virology sought
bids for two contracts in twenty nineteen.
One was very a security service
procurement project issued on
September 12th
September. 12Th was the same day
that the would you know would
you know, lab abruptly, took its
virus database off line.
Four days later, the Wuhan LAB
announced another contract
competition
for a 600 million effort to
renoivate the Labs air
conditioning system.
Renoivate.
Why
the Times dispatch from
Beijing all evidence of those
contract were wiped from the
website of China.
John Ratcliff is the former
director of national intelligence and wrote an op, Ed
Intelligence and wrote an op ed
that include this assessment.
The lab leak theory is not just.
