Corporate Whores and Big Pharma

By Cliff Kincaid

Although Google’s YouTube has admitted that the auto-pen presidency deleted many accounts, including my channel, censorship is still underway. (I am fighting to get my channel restored).

Censorship of a different kind is still widespread, as we can see the power and influence of Big Pharma. The CNBC cable channel featured a Merck big wig, CEO Robert Davis,mostly talking about the profit potential of a new shot for cancer. CNBC was giddy with excitement.

But consider Tylenol (Acetaminophen), which has been in the news because of a link to autism. The packaging says, “If pregnant or breast-feeding, ask a professional before use.”

Yet, the media claim it is perfectly “safe” for pregnant women. Senator John Thune, Republican Senate Majority Leader, went on CNN to bash the Trump Administration for raising alarms about Tylenol.

However, the Department of Health and Human Services noted that a post by Tylenol from 2017 on X, known as Twitter at the time, said, “We don’t actually recommend using any of our products while pregnant.”

Kenvue, maker of Tylenol, later tried to “clarify” the post.

Here is what I learned from an employee of a major company that specializes in supplying biological research reagents toBig Pharma:

While Big Pharma and the federal National Institutes of Health (NIH) fund cancer treatments, when the research comes close to finding a cancer cure, the funding is withdrawn, so the profitable “treatments” can continue to make money.

This helps explain why the rising rates of autism have not been solved or even seriously addressed. There is no profit — or at least there is no financial gain — in finding out what factors are associated with or causing it. Instead, Tylenol, which generates roughly $1 billion in annual sales, is still being pushed on pregnant women, despite studies suggesting that it may cause long-term neurological effects in their children.

As a result, the profitable “Autism Industrial Complex” (AIC) has emerged. It is a multi-billion-dollar global enterprise.

Under the influence of Big Pharma and the federal government (until Trump) Acetaminophen has been prescribed to treat fevers, even though it is very rare that a fever becomes so high as to cause damage to the brain. Fevers are an important response of the body to fight infection.

The talking heads on CNBC, who worship at the altar of Big Pharma, mock the Trump Administration announcement that Tylenol is one of those factors.

I suggest that people read the administration’s fact sheet on the problem and decide for themselves. It said, in response to the announcement of potential harm, “Predictably, the Fake News immediately went into frenzied hyperventilation with their usual smears, distortions, and lies.”

Here are the facts as I have been able to gather them:

Some epidemiological studies support the link between Tylenol and autism.
Tylenol can be a dangerous drug, particularly for the liver.
There are cases of teenagers who chose Tylenol to commit suicide.
Infants are too frequently given adult doses accidentally by their parents and it destroys their liver.

Regarding point number two, consider that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports that “Acetaminophen is a popular nonprescription analgesic that is often taken in overdose by adolescents during suicidal gestures.” Regarding point four, the NIH admits that, “Harmless at low doses, acetaminophen has direct hepatotoxic potential when taken as an overdose and can cause acute liver injury and death from acute liver failure. Even in therapeutic doses, acetaminophen can cause transient serum aminotransferase elevations.” (indications of liver disease).

Tracy Slepcevic of the Autism Health organization reports, “Trump and Kennedy highlighted new research confirming what many of us have been saying for years: acetaminophen is not safe. Acetaminophen can open up the blood-brain barrier, making it easier for toxins to penetrate the brain and disrupt neurodevelopment. It’s not just in Tylenol—look at your labels. Acetaminophen is hiding in Advil, Aleve, NyQuil, DayQuil, and countless other over-the-counter medications.”

She also credits HHS Secretary RFK Jr. for being bold “in stating what so many of us already know: vaccines can and do cause autism in susceptible children. This truth has been denied and buried by pharmaceutical interests for far too long.”

She added, “I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to President Trump for having the courage to take this issue on, and especially to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for being the warrior that he is. Kennedy has stood by parents like me for decades, when it wasn’t popular and when it cost him dearly. He is a hero to so many of us who have been mocked, criticized, and silenced for telling the truth about our children’s vaccine injuries.

“September 22, 2025, will go down as a historic day to remember. It was a BIG win for those of us who have been fighting this fight for so many years. The tide is turning. We are winning the war—and never forget—God always wins.”

As a long-time media critic, first with Accuracy in Media and then with America’s Survival, Inc., I believe that providing accurate information to the American people is a special responsibility. Our media are not interested in truth or accuracy. Since the days of Curtis MacDougall, the father of modern journalism, so-called advocacy or interpretative reporting has been the norm. That means they inject their own liberal opinions into the “news” coverage to sway an audience.

When they work for a “business channel” like CNBC, they genuflect before the profits of the corporations.

I was so frustrated that I started my own organization to specialize in the truth about vaccines.

My June 20, 2015, conference through the Committee to Protect Medical Freedom, one of our special projects, challenged the government’s AIDS vaccine program, its AIDS science, and the failure to address contaminated vaccines possibly linked to cancer and AIDS.

Significantly, Anthony Fauci of the NIH oversaw that failed effort, estimated to have cost $258 million, and which was designed mainly to benefit promiscuous homosexuals at risk of HIV/AIDs.

I concluded that the government, in collusion with certain special interests, was rushing into development and production of vaccines and other products that could backfire, causing more health problems than they would solve. But that result serves the interests of Big Pharma and their drive for more profits based on the increase in health problems and their marketing of treatments but not cures.

Don’t expect the truth from the corporate whores, a term popular with Democrats except when they are taking money from employees of Big Pharma and talking about “science.”
