Epidemics of fear repeat themselves. The first time as tragedy. The second time as farce. Margit Hamosh? Definitely farce. What was it that Margit Hamosh did? What was her alleged fraud?
Season 3 (2018)

ABOUT REVISIONIST HISTORY
Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwell’s journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every podcast episode re-examines something from the past - an event, a person, an idea, even a song - and asks whether we got it right the first time. Because sometimes the past deserves a second chance.

World class story telling, This story amplifies my own beliefs about the news. That the 'mainstream media" does an amazing job reporting the news accurately and appropriately. Occasionally, they allow "news worthiness" and "political bias" rule the coverage. This makes news inaccurate or dangerously misleading . I'm looking forward to the follow up podcast. if you could let me know when it drops

@MeeCee5204 Год назад

It sounds to me more like a problem with the verb she used than with the word "presently." To say, "we ARE presently using..." sounds like it's happening right now, not like something they plan to do soon 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

@lb4937 Год назад

I agree. It should have read "we WILL BE presently using...", if she meant for "presently" to mean "shortly."

Mr. Gladwell is a good guy. He can be wrong or right, but I think he works for honesty. He puts himself into the guilty party of science reporters. It is very rare for someone of his stature to admit fault. He's a good guy.

This is what happens when we let fear control us.

Can't wait for the next episode. Hopefully I'll have time to stock up on bathroom tissue.

great storyteller! Every RH is great in its own way!

@cicciobellomio50 Год назад

I really don’t think you can excuse the conduct of the press by saying that we all would’ve done the same thing. People leaked information from the government to avoid the process and avoid doing the hard work of justifying their findings. I have seen this too often and it is a very disturbing issue because the press becomes the enabler’s. I do not believe it is going away and when people say that we all would’ve done it at the time it is really not justified. It was never appropriate time to do this.

Really if you step back, how many people died of drunken driving compared to the 3 cases 😢. Where’s the sense of perspective?

@lindagarland5223 Год назад

This is not the subject of Malcolm's story. I see an opportunity for you to deep dive.

@marylee8372 Год назад

Where are the second and third episodes on this topic?

Is part 2 of this out?

Malcolm is a great story teller and a prolific investigator. But sometimes (rarely), it's difficult to know whether he engages in conspiratorial thinking. This podcast was great, but his words at the end left an uneasy feeling for me. His last words made me think: "that' a great way to set up a scenario to also blame our healthcare authorities (CDC, NIH) & Dr. Fauci for allegedly 'fooling the public' or 'lying to the public' [when in-fact they did not lie or try to fool anyone]." Today in 'Merika, too many assume (falsely) that the scientific community did wrongful things during the COVID-19 pandemic. They Did Not. The countless real career scientists gave factual information that were almost always correct, relevant, & appropriate AT THE TIME THEY GAVE IT. Since Malcolm often seems to be against governmental institutions like the NIH -- so, at the end of this he incorrectly blamed the NIH for "not apologizing" when in-fact it was the OSI who caused this anti-science mass psychosis (the OSI was a tiny group of non-scientific speculative "who-dunnits" inside the NIH). The end of the podcast left me wondering... did the ending give Malcolm an avenue to falsely blame our health & safety institutions for "causing harm and not apologizing"?? I hope he doesn't spread misinformation. It's difficult to know whether his historical information is mostly accurate or simply a biased one-sided snapshot of the full & objective reality at that time.

@paulhue86 Год назад

I’m baffled how Malcolm doesn’t see the mass hysteria at play in both the Covid & AIDS phenomena.

@keep-ukraine-free Год назад

Your statement is quite vague. Are you claiming there's mass hysteria around COVID-19 because (1) "the 'globalists' perpetrated on us a pandemics hoax"... or (2) because "misinformation fooled many people into disbelieving scientists, about masks & vaccines"? Your words are vague because they could be used to support either "anti-vaxxers" or "vaccine proponents".

How do you know he doesn't?????
