In Which Right Wing Blogger Chuck C. Johnson Takes Credit for Stopping Ebola
Here at LGF I’ve written numerous articles on the dishonest fear-mongering coverage of Ebola by right wing smear merchant Chuck C. Johnson; his record on this has been absolutely abysmal, filled with incompetent factual errors, wildly incorrect predictions, outright lies, smears of doctors and nurses, and stalking and outing private information of suspected Ebola patients.
Today Chuck informed the world via Twitter that he’s actually a hero who stopped the spread of Ebola by inciting panic, because that’s how science works — by making people scared.
We don’t know how many Ebola tests were done because the media worked with the CDC to suppress it.

By reporting names of #Ebola patients 1st I helped make people take the disease seriously & saved lives. I reported failed quarantine sites.

@josephcurl maybe the reason they were cured quickly is that everyone was scared?

@josephcurl yes it is. Panics make it so that people take precautions.

It’s science, people!
