By Dr. Andrew Wakefield
The manipulation of Lord Leveson’s inquiry into the subterfuge of Murdoch and Son’s News Corporation hangs ominously over the November 29th US Government’s Oversight Committee hearing on Autism. Why? Because the upcoming hearing was not meant to be about Autism but rather, CDC malfeasance in covering up the vaccine-autism link. Bear with me.
Faced with the Leveson Inquiry, the British Government could not afford to lose an “MMR-is-safe” inch gained for them by News Corporation aparatchick Brian Deer. Deer’s “exposé” – itself a contrivance – was demolished in the High Court ruling of Justice Mitting when overthrowing the General Medical Council’s adverse findings against Professor John Walker Smith, my Lancet co author. In a “public interest” argument, the Inquiry spun the MMR exposé as the sole mitigation for the abuses of press freedom by News Corporation employees. At the same time, parents who petitioned the Inquiry to permit them to give evidence on the MMR-autism issue were deliberately excluded. The consequence in the UK was a Government win.
In another winter of discontent for the rapidly growing autism community, the US Government (or someone) appears to have turned the tables on the upcoming Oversight Committee hearing. Gone is Dr. Brian Hooker’s expose of the CDC’s manipulation of the autism-thimerosal connection, told in their own words through FOIA and court-ordered disclosures. This leaves Mark Blaxill of SafeMinds a mere five minutes to discuss the original basis of the hearing – vaccine safety and autism. And in place of the exposé, various autism groups will create a worthy but irrelevant smoke screen behind which the CDC will make its escape.
The late Elizabeth Birt, who worked so effectively with Dan Burton in his earlier Oversight Committee hearings, must be turning in her grave. Come to that, where is a representative of the Elizabeth Birt Center for Autism Law and Advocacy (EBCALA) discussing the US Vaccine Injury Compensation System’s (VICP) longstanding compensation of children rendered autistic by vaccine-induced brain damage?
The media continues to get it wrong over the MMR. Hope its OK to post this here but look what CBeebies has done to informed consent over the MMR. Its “Inject to protect” show tells preschoolers that the MMR is 100% safe and effective..

Anna Watson is EXACTLY right to highlight the BBC propaganda being ‘fed’ to the UK proletariat, and MOST reprehensibly, impressionable young children. The BBC ‘ Inject to Protect’ programme was aimed at pre school children, and in the case of concerned parents worried about the MMR vaccine, this could potentially cause conflicts between children and their parents. From the BEEB standard reply to me following my complaint:-
“The programme was entirely funded by the BBC and no pharmaceutical companies had any input whatsoever into the making of the show. Dr Ranj is a working paediatrician, and Nurse Morag is also a qualified health practitioner. Their direct experience of working with children informed much of the content of the show.
We recognise that immunisation is a topic of much debate. All children born in the UK will be offered the MMR vaccine and, whilst the decision to take it or not remains a matter of individual choice for parents, figures suggest that the current take-up rate is extremely high – as many as 9 out of 10 children will have the jab. Given that such a high proportion of children will go through the experience (or inoculation against other diseases) we wanted to help de-mystify the actual process as much as possible, as we set out to do with all the topics covered by the other episodes in the series.”
Scotland is presently experiencing sporadic small outbreaks of measles amongst schoolchildren. Since vaccination rates for both MMR and DTP vaccines are high enough to provide so called herd immunity, the Scottish Health Department needs to explain why outbreaks of whooping cough and measles are still happening. Dr Wakefield might be pleasantly surprised to see that for once, the TV media reporting does not include any Wakefield or parent ‘bashing’!

Just for once, Dr Wakefield, your predictions have turned out to be WRONG and how pleased you must be. After 14 years, it seems the tide of ignorance, denials and what amounts to criminal negligence, on the part of worldwide government heath officials, totally in financial and political thrall to big pharma vaccine manfacturers, is turning at last.
King Canute, for all his royal power and position, could not hold back the tide. To quote Churchill, ” This is not the beginning of the end, but the end of the beginning.”
