  • Thank you Joe Nocera!

    Alex Berenson - May 13th 2026 11:27am EDT

    Joe Nocera is one of the top business reporters and editors of the last 40 years — and hardly a conservative. He’s now working for The Free Press. Last night, he took a look at the facts of Berenson v Biden and became the first mainstream journalist to explain the case, and why my settlement […]

  • Hahahaha the “nonpartisan fact-checkers” are at it again

    Alex Berenson - May 12th 2026 3:37pm EDT

    On Thursday, I explained how Moderna’s own clinical trial for its mRNA flu jab showed it caused hundreds of severe side effects to prevent one flu hospitalization. Today, the mRNA fanatics nonpartisan fact-checkers at NewsGuard, the umm, Global Leader in Information Reliability, struck back by finding massive holes in my piece! They tried to, anyway. […]

  • Thank you all!

    Alex Berenson - May 12th 2026 12:08pm EDT

    I have a confession. I almost didn’t take the deal. Last week, I went to a dinner honoring Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, the director of the National Institutes of Health. As you likely know, Dr. Anthony Fauci and the health bureaucracy wanted to destroy Jay in 2020 for the crime of being honest about Covid. Now […]

  • URGENT: A huge win in Berenson v Biden

    Alex Berenson - May 11th 2026 1:50pm EDT

    Goodbye Berenson v (Joe) Biden. Hello Berenson v (Albert) Bourla. Today, the Trump Administration and I settled the federal government’s role in Berenson v Biden, my lawsuit against Biden Administration and Pfizer officials for violating my Constitutional rights and forcing Twitter to ban me in summer 2021. After three hard-fought years, this settlement marks a […]

  • Happy Mother’s Day!

    Alex Berenson - May 10th 2026 4:49pm EDT

    I’d rather ignore Jong-Fast, but the New York Times let her despoil Mother’s Day with an op-ed called, “I Forgave My Mother, but It Was Too Late.” Please. If you missed it last year, this piece will let you judge Jong-Fast’s “forgiveness” for yourself. It’s no accident she was a hardcore lockdowner and mRNA fanatic, […]

  • Can lefty commentators PLEASE stop “joking” about killing Republicans and rich people they don’t like?

    Alex Berenson - May 8th 2026 5:31pm EDT

    If MS NOW could walk, it would be Lyz Lenz. Lenz is a wannabe journalist who got fired in 2020 by the Cedar Rapids Gazette for being too far left and overly political. (In 2020! From a newspaper!) She parlayed her firing into a successful Substack (over 50,000 subscribers) and a bestselling 2024 memoir whining […]

  • The Moderna flu jab has a comically bad risk-benefit ratio. Will the FDA give into political pressure and approve it?

    Alex Berenson - May 7th 2026 5:05pm EDT

    Moderna just published the full results from its pivotal 40,000-person trial comparing its mRNA flu jab to a standard flu shot. They are awful. Not that you would know from the legacy media’s coverage, or Moderna’s press release promising “potential approvals expected to begin in 2026.” The trial showed severe side effects from the mRNA […]

  • It’s time to stop pretending hospitals are “nonprofits”

    Alex Berenson - May 6th 2026 4:03pm EDT

    How much do American hospitals cost? Over $2 million per bed per year. Not for a state-of-the-art neonatal unit, or a Level III trauma center. The United States now spends over $2 million every year for an average hospital bed — $1.6 trillion in all. That’s one key reason the American medical system has fewer […]

  • The sale on truth ends today!

    Alex Berenson - May 6th 2026 10:28am EDT

    Independent journalism is deeply rewarding. I find my own stories, connect directly with readers, write at my own pace and in my own style. I’m my own boss. But. But. Nothing is free, especially not independence. Substack is hotly competitive, open to anyone and everyone. And working without a boss means working without a net. […]

  • Another day, another junk vaccine study hyped by the legacy media. Will the noise ever stop?

    Alex Berenson - May 5th 2026 5:27pm EDT

    There’s science. And there’s The Science. Never the twain shall meet. Last week, the Washington Post pretended Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, director of the National Institutes of Health had hidden a study showing how awesomely awesome mRNA Covid boosters are. In reality, anyone with a basic understanding of statistics and medicine could see the study wasn’t […]

  • Chronicle of a birth foretold

    Alex Berenson - May 5th 2026 12:39pm EDT

    (A long piece by UT standards, but worth your time. Buckle up!) In February, Katy Talento — a “recovering epidemiologist” who served as a White House health policy advisor from 2017 to 2019 — wrote a remarkable Substack attacking American hospitals. Talento drew on her personal experiences seeing family members suffer to illustrate her broader […]

  • Even the New York Times now admits American hospital costs are out-of-control

    Alex Berenson - May 4th 2026 11:20am EDT

    This Is the Biggest Culprit for Health Care Spending When I saw the nytimes.com headline, I clicked though expecting another article blaming insurance companies. Nope. Instead, the opinion piece — from a Yale professor — focused on hospital costs: We are directing our anger at the part of the system that is most visible and […]

  • Yes, the truth is on sale (for three days)!

    Alex Berenson - May 3rd 2026 3:03pm EDT

    (Note: I sent this email this morning to free subscribers, but I’m resending it to everyone in case monthly subscribers want to switch to yearly – or anyone wants to give a gift!) — Last week, at the Hillsdale College symposium, someone came up to me and said, “I’ve been reading you for years, I […]

  • Unreported Truths readers speak out on knee surgery (as doctors and patients)

    Alex Berenson - May 2nd 2026 1:45pm EDT

    Sometimes I think I should change the name of this Substack to The Unreported Truths Medical Journal. (Or maybe The Medical Journal of The Unreported Truths?) Joking aside, the level of feedback on pieces like yesterday’s about knee surgery shows how many physicians read UT. If I get medical details wrong, I hear about them. […]

  • Does meniscal tear surgery – performed in the US nearly 1 million times a year – do any good?

    Alex Berenson - May 1st 2026 3:20pm EDT

    They would have gotten away with it if not for those meddling Finns. In 2007, doctors in Finland decided to test if a common knee surgery actually helped patients, by running a clinical trial on the surgery like those used to test medicines. Over the next few years, they randomly split 146 patients into two […]

  • My speech – about cannabis, Covid, and the search for hard truths – to the Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar today

    Alex Berenson - Apr 29th 2026 6:10pm EDT

    (Given at the Ritz-Carlton hotel, Dana Point, California, 1 p.m. PDT, April 29, 2026) I am here to talk about cannabis – where the science and the politics of the drug stand today, and how they have changed since 2019, when I wrote Tell Your Children, about the psychiatric dangers of cannabis and THC, the […]

  • URGENT: David Morens, a top NIH aide to Dr. Anthony Fauci, has been indicted for hiding records about the origins of Covid-19

    Alex Berenson - Apr 28th 2026 11:19am EDT

    Federal prosecutors in Maryland have criminally charged David Morens, a former senior scientific advisor to Dr. Anthony Fauci at the National Institutes of Health, for hiding records about Covid-19’s origins from the public. Morens worked with other scientists to evade Freedom of Information Act laws over public requests related to NIH’s work on coronavirus research, […]

  • Why I’m pushing on the measles vaccine issue

    Alex Berenson - Apr 24th 2026 3:32pm EDT

    In 2021, officials at the Centers for Disease Control did everything they could to dismiss and then downplay the potential myocarditis risks of the mRNA Covid jabs. Ultimately, the CDC had to admit the truth, infuriating many parents who felt (correctly) the agency had misled them. But it is not as if the myocarditis risk […]

  • URGENT: The CDC is misleading parents about the risk of febrile seizures from vaccines

    Alex Berenson - Apr 23rd 2026 5:03pm EDT

    Lying is such an ugly word. The Centers for Disease Control is offering parents an inaccurately low estimate of the risk of febrile seizures in children following measles and other vaccinations. The figures the CDC provides on its Web page on the topic contradict the agency’s own data and research from 2008, which show a […]

  • The measles (MMR) vaccine has a significant seizure risk

    Alex Berenson - Apr 23rd 2026 11:32am EDT

    The Unreported Truths hive mind is at work. After yesterday’s article suggesting reporters and health bureaucrats should be honest that deaths from measles are quite rare, a reader emailed: I think you have missed one important fact: The measles vaccine has long been given along with two others, mumps and rubella. It’s called the MMR […]

  • The costs of the legacy media’s obsession with measles

    Alex Berenson - Apr 22nd 2026 1:27pm EDT

    Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a terrible way for a child to die. SSPE, an untreatable brain disease, usually strikes around age 10. It starts with irritability and muscle weakness and ends in coma and death. And as a frightening opinion piece in the New York Times explained Tuesday, the disease usually occurs as the […]

  • Your thoughts on conspiracies – real and imagined

    Alex Berenson - Apr 21st 2026 11:21am EDT

    Yesterday, I wrote about a conversation I’d had with “Steve,” a thirty-something guy who works at a local business and knows me through my appearances on Joe Rogan’s podcast. These days, Steve has mostly given up on Rogan. Now he prefers Candace Owens. He thinks Candace asks good questions, particularly about Zionist/Israeli conspiracies. He believes […]

  • The future is conspiratorial

    Alex Berenson - Apr 20th 2026 2:41pm EDT

    Today I was working in a coffee shop when someone said hi. I looked up from my laptop to see a guy who works near the shop at a business I occasionally visit. During Covid, he recognized me there. He’d heard me on Joe Rogan’s podcast, liked what I’d said. So we had a friendly […]

  • The truth about rising measles cases – from a physician

    Alex Berenson - Apr 19th 2026 11:37am EDT

    A few days ago, an email popped up in my inbox: My name is Cory Franklin – former head of MICU [medical intensive care unit] at Cook County and editorial board contributor to the Chicago Tribune. You can look me up. There is a very serious problem going on in medicine that you would be […]

  • A follow-up on yesterday’s piece about Woody Brown, his novel, and “facilitated communication”

    Alex Berenson - Apr 17th 2026 11:57am EDT

    I knew yesterday’s piece asking if Woody Brown — who is autistic and non-verbal — actually wrote the novel published under his name might upset some readers. Few topics are more controversial than autism, from its causes to its rates to its treatments. And Brown’s story raises questions without clean answers: Is it more unfair […]
