    Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s admission last month that senior Biden administration officials pressured Facebook to censor content related to COVID-19 during the pandemic has prompted some media outlets to correct articles published years ago.

    McGill University in Montreal, Canada, added a pinned comment with a correction to its “A Dose of Science” YouTube video, posted in March 2022 by the university’s Office for Science & Society.

    GreenMedInfo, whose founder, Sayer Ji, was included among the “Disinformation Dozen,” called the corrections “a crucial step towards rectifying the record and vindicating free speech advocates in the realm of medical choices and informed consent.”

    But GreenMedInfo noted that CCDH and its CEO Imran Ahmed, continue to repeat claims that the “Disinformation Dozen” are responsible for 65% of vaccine-related “misinformation” online, such as in a Men’s Health interview in June.

    CHD CEO Mary Holland told The Defender she is “glad to see some mainstream media corrections, but they are of course too little, too late to have any real impact.”
