The article they wouldn't publish because it went against the editorial board. This is after this magazine showed interested in it and we went back and forth with a few edits. Ideology > quality.
Rejected the article? Well, and no wonder. It's utterly reprehensible of you to insist on continually pointing out the obvious and saying the quiet part out loud.
It's anathema, this habit of yours, and relegating you to the status of pariah is entirely understandable; The advertisers really dislike your contradicting their deceptive marketing in this fashion.
I agree with Ted. I completely understand why it was pulled from publication. You point out everything that is wrong with healthcare, nutrition (or lack thereof), the industrial "food" complex, big pharma and the governmental narratives. Moreover, you are inconveniently mentioning all the many groups of people out there ready for change. That is blasphemy to mention there is demand for these changes. This is an affront to their most prevalent and largest advertisers, and in turn to them. You are espousing everything they have endlessly smeared and covered up for years - decades, for that matter. You also mention their political class they are part of as a big part of the problem.
From your point of view, and ours, you are merely commenting on a horrendous problem with the system and your observations about the growing public backlash against this corruption. I get it. But there is no way in hell they want this type of "awakening" in their publication. They don't want to be seen as condoning the movement, nor even wanting to admit it is justified, or is significant in size. If they could admit it to themselves, they wouldn't be still calling out RFK Jr as an anti-vaxxer. They are tone deaf to the music out there that is getting louder by the day. They will only "wake up" when they see their readership nearly evaporate and are left "waiting" in the unemployment lines. The best way to know you are on to something, over the target as they say, is when they are making every effort to silence you. Your piece is a great summary of the topic, without getting too deep into the woods, but it was never going to get approved for reasons I stated.
Would seem that the publisher may have feared loss of ad revenue as you were justifiably explicit about Big Food and Big Pharma who would not appreciate any positive press for RFKjr.
What's wrong with the article is its overall positive, hopeful tone alongside names of one or more individuals the media outlet has committed to publishing nothing but negative doom and gloom about. Such commitments are typically made spontaneously via emotionally charged midnight memos to apply across the board without exception. If this particular media outlet has ever published anything vaguely positive about Trump or any of his appointees, I would be utterly surprised...unless of course one of those midnight memos was issued right before your submission.
They should also put most/all of the money and resources currently going toward climate change into the MAHA agenda. There's more substantive proof of the poor health outcomes for Americans, and more dire and immediate consequences to our health than any threat we'd have to deal with by a couple degrees of temperature change.
There's no comparison in the value created between the these two goals, either.
Good job reporting on this important issue. I would like to add that RICO should be applied to dudes like Buffet and Gates...the alcohol and corn sugar they peddle is sickening millions, and making them billions. Corn derived alcohol based "Sanitizer" does not stop the spread of disease in hospitals or anywhere, it actually multiplies the problem from what I have seen. Corn derived sweeter is in virtually everything, and is patently unhealthy. I understand that Gates and Buffet profit tremendously from the broad use by the unsuspecting public of these unhealthy products...and are likely subsidized at several levels by taxpayer's money...as was the unwanted Covid 19 poison. Government sponsored/sanctioned fraud against the taxpayers. Of course they do not want you to publish the truth...they get paid to shut you up. Keep on publishing...the truth to them is as dangerous as their vaccines are to citizens.
Thanks for giving Substack readers a chance to read your piece. Clearly, applauding anything to do with RFK Jr is a threat to the establishment. I look forward to the day when editors and journalists don't fear reprisals for voicing their opinions or for reporting factually what government, corporate and political interests don't want the public to know.
I think it's a great article. And well written! But I guess your opinions and hopeful outlook don't fit their narrative and stray from the orthodoxy - always looking up to the gov health bodies and believing they know best.. when clearly they don't.
Such a radical change in outlook and narrative from RFK and MAGA is not just a bridge too far for them, but maybe 10 bridges too far! They are so closed minded.
But good on you for writing about it, and wording it so well. Keep it up!!
It's important for everyone to WRITE AND CALL your SENATORS multiple times from now until the confirmation hearings and urge them to support the nominations of RFK Jr and Jay Bhattacharya. There is no restriction on how many times you can do this, and remember that our members of Congress are working for us.
Senators are being bombarded with opposing messages and pressure, so we need to hound them, respectfully but assertively, again and again. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn around the health of our country.
Here's how to find your elected officials' information:
Fantastic commentary. When the delegates were discussing the creation of our Constitution in the 1780's, they thought that the America of that day was big enough to consider the opinions of all Americans, not just those who had highly placed friends or access to government positions. The same is true today.
I hope that in the future you get an opportunity to write about what the health insurance moguls got from the government in their horse-trading that surrounded the passing of the Affordable Health Care Act, aka Obama Care. A small business friend of mine lamented the fact that after Obama Care became law, his health insurance provider cancelled his old policy that was tailor-made for him, and he had to buy a more expensive policy that had all the bells and whistles that Obama Care demanded in all health care policies, even though the "extras" did not apply to his needs.
Keep up the insightful writing. If you get a chance, check our "The World as King Sees it" on substack.com and let me know what you think. I also appreciate all comments.
"An “important” (Times UK) and “meticulously researched” (Forbes) book by the “skeptical environmentalist” argues that panic over climate change is causing more harm than good."
I've observed a battle on two fronts between legacy media and truth-telling platforms like Substack, X, and Joe Rogan. One of the fronts is over which side is more credible; the other is over which is the defender and which is a threat to free speech. It looks like you're on the side of Substack and your would-be publisher is on the side of legacy media.
Ha! Just yesterday I went to a bar and everyone (!) was talking about how excited they are to have RFK Jr. and Trump start on our new path. I live in a small ski town that voted 78% Democrat so this is a incredible change, these were all youngsters (20's 30's) who have the cool jobs in town. They feel the world is in a seismeth change - changing all the evil, they can't wait to get rid of seed oil... John Kerry does talks here, his time is over.

The editorial board must have conflicts of interest. Shame on them. Their time of irrelevance is coming anyway.
Great piece! I don’t see any reason why it would have been censored

Well-said, Bill. Thanks

Looking forward to Dr. Jay's appointment too.
It's a new day, indeed!

Before any positive changes to the health care system can ensue, big pharma has to be
de-fanged. And congress has to be on board all the way.

And this, too. How about not letting Klaus Schwab decide who lives and dies in Western societies? Schwab proposes a law to die at 70, with few exceptions!
