  • The AARP just told its 38 million members to get an eighth (yes, EIGHTH!) shot of mRNA

    Alex Berenson - Jan 5th 2024 1:35pm EST

    AARP? Or AARPfizer? The lobbying group for older Americans just told its nearly 38 million members to “hustle” for another Covid jab, even if they have already had five boosters. See for yourself. The following question-and-answer column ran in the organization’s December “AARP Bulletin”: — AARP is open to anyone 50 or older. The column […]

  • On the mysterious case of Tom Scocca

    Alex Berenson - Jan 4th 2024 4:27pm EST

    You know Tom Scocca, even if you don’t. Scocca is a progressive. An aggressive progressive. He thinks all the right (left) thinks, and he thinks them on social media with an edge. He hates Donald Trump, but he also hates his liberal cousins who don’t hate Donald Trump enough. Naturally, Scocca was a Covid hysteric […]

  • On the sexual atrocities Hamas committed on Oct. 7

    Alex Berenson - Dec 29th 2023 3:11pm EST

    On Thursday, The New York Times recounted in awful detail the sexual atrocities the men of Gaza committed during Hamas’s October 7 raid into Israel. I know Jeffrey Gettleman, who had the piece’s lead byline. He is a serious reporter who served with distinction for many years in Africa. He doesn’t exaggerate. Which is good, […]

  • Unreported Truths in 2023 – (another) big year. Now, what’s next?

    Alex Berenson - Dec 26th 2023 12:24pm EST

    As 2023 began, the big question I faced for Unreported Truths was: what next? As a public health threat, Covid – always overblown – had faded. Barring an unlikely mutation, it would only get milder. Public opinion had swung against every Covid control measure, from lockdowns and school closures to mRNA “vaccines.” — (What next? […]

  • Update on a possible “pharma-wary” doctor list

    Alex Berenson - Dec 21st 2023 6:33pm EST

    On Monday, I asked your thoughts on a reader’s suggestion that we create a database of physicians who – in her words – “are clear-headed and not swayed by pharma.” Your response was fascinating on two levels: first, almost 8,000 of you answered the poll. By an overwhelming 95-5 margin you favored the idea. (By […]

  • The smug, Botoxed face of everything wrong with medicine in America (PART 2)

    Alex Berenson - Dec 21st 2023 1:14pm EST

    (PART TWO: The Fall) A January 2015 Forbes profile of Brenton L. Saunders, who at age 44 was about to become the chief executive of Allergan, the maker of Botox, begins unforgettably: Saunders lying in a chair “in an Orlando hotel ballroom as a plastic surgeon pierced his face 30 times,” injecting him with Botox […]

  • The smug, Botoxed face of everything wrong with medicine in America (PART 1)

    Alex Berenson - Dec 20th 2023 3:59pm EST

    (FIRST OF TWO PARTS: The Rise) American medicine is sick. The evidence is everywhere, from punishing insurance copays for crucial drugs to shortages of physicians for basic care to soaring maternal death rates. The national numbers match our personal experiences. America spends twice as much per-person on healthcare as other rich countries, an extra $2 […]

  • A very interesting idea

    Alex Berenson - Dec 18th 2023 3:08pm EST

    In response to the Matthew Perry piece, a reader wrote: Great article, Alex.  Though I think your covid work is critical, your work exposing the dangers of marijuana, etc (and pharma in general) is equally important…   There is a lot of interest amongst your readers (as far as I can tell in the comments) in […]

  • On the tragedy of Matthew Perry and the profound American addiction to drugs

    Alex Berenson - Dec 16th 2023 4:14pm EST

    California sober. If you haven’t heard the phrase before, “California sober” is a clever way to say, I’ve quit drinking or using drugs, but I still smoke pot. Because cannabis doesn’t count. Cannabis is medicine. Occasionally people who use the phrase extend it even further, usually to psychedelics. To be California sober, you see, is […]

  • The world knows mRNA Covid shots have failed

    Alex Berenson - Dec 13th 2023 5:02pm EST

    All Travis Kelce’s grinning can’t save mRNA. This morning, Pfizer disappointed investors by saying it expects sales of its mRNA Covid jab to plunge again in 2024. Annual sales of Pfizer’s shot and anti-Covid drug Paxlovid will fall 35 percent next year – on the heels of an 80 percent collapse this year. The announcement […]

  • Questions Pfizer and Moderna must answer

    Alex Berenson - Dec 11th 2023 2:11pm EST

    Imagine you were about to take the Novavax Covid jab, which consists of purified coronavirus spike protein. (I know, you’re not, but work with me.) Now imagine that as the nurse was about to put the needle in your arm, she said, Look, the purification process wasn’t perfect, you’re getting 92 percent spike protein, but […]

  • More bad news for the mRNAs

    Alex Berenson - Dec 11th 2023 7:13am EST

    How scary is a new paper showing mRNA Covid shots accidentally cause our bodies to make many different proteins and not just the Covid spike, as the shot’s promoters have claimed for three years? Scary enough the paper’s authors began spinning their work as soon as they put it out. University of Cambridge professor Anne […]

  • A poll: should I write a book about the still-unfolding crisis of the mRNA Covid shots?

    Alex Berenson - Dec 8th 2023 2:29pm EST

    I need your advice. On March 23, 2021, I published my fourth and final Unreported Truths booklet – about the mRNAs. Near the end, I wrote: Vaccine advocates see a scientific leap forward that may work not just against the coronavirus but influenza, other viruses, and even cancer… [they think] even if some kinks need […]

  • Genocide and Jews at Harvard

    Alex Berenson - Dec 6th 2023 9:56pm EST

    You all know I believe in free speech. Free speech is a bedrock American right. It includes the right to be wrong, to say offensive or even horrific things in public and in private. In July, I wrote here that freedom of speech is really freedom of thought: People who can’t say openly what they […]

  • Everything you hate about climate change virtue signaling in the most absurd story you’ll read this year

    Alex Berenson - Dec 1st 2023 12:08pm EST

    You’re gonna want to read this one on an empty stomach. Twenty-six times a year, The New York Times shows its commitment to the environment by offering readers “Living Small.” No, Living Small isn’t about the joys and trials of being height-challenged. It’s “a biweekly column exploring what it takes to lead a simpler, more […]

  • URGENT: Romanian prosecutors are investigating the country’s former prime minister for spending $1 billion on Pfizer Covid jabs that were never used

    Alex Berenson - Nov 30th 2023 4:49pm EST

    The Romanian Senate yesterday opened the way for prosecutors to investigate Florin Citu, Romania’s prime minister in 2021, for spending $1.1 billion on 53 million mRNA Covid jabs from Pfizer which Romania never used. Citu now serves as a senator in Romania, a post that makes him immune from prosecution. The Senate voted 90-2 to […]

  • UPDATE: The first hearing in Berenson v Biden has been postponed

    Alex Berenson - Nov 29th 2023 2:06pm EST

    About that hearing Thursday… Not long after I hit send on “L’etat, c’est Pfizer” (yesterday’s article about Berenson v Biden), federal Judge Jessica G.L. Clarke canceled our court date. Why? The backstory here is worth the trouble; bear with me. We have agreed not to start the discovery process on the defendants in Berenson v […]

  • L’etat, c’est Pfizer

    Alex Berenson - Nov 28th 2023 4:24pm EST

    Tick, tick, tick… At 3 p.m. Thursday, in a downtown Manhattan courtroom, federal Judge Jessica G.L. Clarke will hold the first hearing in Berenson v Biden, my lawsuit against the White House and Pfizer’s top officials for their efforts to censor me in 2021. The hearing will be largely procedural. Judge Clarke will set a […]

  • The Israel/Hamas ceasefire: your thoughts

    Alex Berenson - Nov 27th 2023 11:08am EST

    Unsurprisingly, yesterday’s piece suggesting the Gaza ceasefire is a victory for Hamas and a defeat for Israel generated huge feedback – both in comments on the story and emails to me. The responses came in four main buckets – I think they’re worth sharing. (Italics are your words, with my comments are in parentheses.) — […]

  • Israel has made a huge mistake

    Alex Berenson - Nov 26th 2023 5:47pm EST

    How to suffer humiliating national defeat in three easy steps: 1: Sat., Oct. 7: Hamas fighters break out of Gaza, overrun Israeli army bases and villages, brutally kill over 1,000 Israelis – and bring almost 250 hostages back to Gaza. 2: Sat., Oct. 28: Israel invades the Gaza Strip, Hamas’s home territory. The invasion and […]

  • The mRNAs didn’t end Covid, Omicron did

    Alex Berenson - Nov 20th 2023 5:56pm EST

    Sometimes the answer just needs to be color-coded. For years, mRNA advocates have tried to give the jabs credit for ending the pandemic, despite massive evidence they stopped working within months and the observational data showing lower deaths among the vaccinated is hopelessly biased. But earlier this month, the Society of Actuaries released an updated […]

  • How much do Muslims hate Israel?

    Alex Berenson - Nov 17th 2023 5:17pm EST

    Remember Sept. 11? I sure do. I apologize to those of you who’ve heard this story before, but I flew that morning, a 90-minute hop from North Carolina, where I’d been researching an article for the Times, to Newark. The flight was smooth and landed early and I was riding my motorcycle back to Manhattan […]

  • EXCLUSIVE: Moderna has halted a trial of a new mRNA vaccine for young people after a suspected myocarditis case

    Alex Berenson - Nov 16th 2023 7:37pm EST

    Investigators for Moderna today halted an early-stage clinical trial for its mRNA Epstein-Barr virus vaccine in adolescents after a participant in the trial developed a suspected case of myocarditis. The case “necessitates an immediate suspension of all dosing for ALL adolescents,” an investigator at the company that is supervising the trial for Moderna wrote, adding, […]

  • The dog that isn’t barking

    Alex Berenson - Nov 15th 2023 4:31pm EST

    Last week, the New York Times offered a long piece on why Hamas had chosen to attack Israel on Oct. 7 (aside from the sheer pleasure of raping and killing Jews). As is so often the case, the simplest answer appears right: Hamas’s leaders felt marginalized as Israel moved towards peace deals with Arab countries, […]

  • Update on Berenson v Biden: Is Elon Musk ready to take a huge step for free speech?

    Alex Berenson - Nov 14th 2023 1:35pm EST

    A year ago, Elon Musk opened Twitter’s records so journalists could report on the extreme censorship pressure Twitter (now X) had faced under its old regime. The Twitter Files, as they were called, were a key reason Musk spent $44 billion to buy Twitter. He and the project’s reporters (including me) hoped to show how […]
