The single greatest failure of the 21st century — by any group of people anywhere on the planet doing anything — will be judged as the failure of the media, specifically tech journalists, to undertake even the most cursory, even the most trivially superficial, even the most blind, let alone one-eyed, investigation of wireless technology and health. It’s a failure of the medical profession, the engineering profession, the legal profession, it’s a drastic failure of sociologists, psychologists, educationists, legislators, regulators, all of you. But most of all, it is a catastrophic failure of the media.

Tech journalists will happily become accessories to global genocide in return for a sausage roll and access to branded drinks at tech events. This is my consistent experience as a subeditor on newspapers in Johannesburg. I have lobbied literally hundreds of journalists all over the world, trying to get just one of them to take a look at the vast body of evidence of harm from microwave radiation. I have had a little luck with local newspapers in South Africa, but as for for wider print journalism in English: I defy anyone to find a single proper article from anywhere in the world about the issue. The best attempt I’ve found, by far, was in GQ magazine. You can find the link in another of my rants against the media here.

No tech journalist can risk alienating the corporates that provide them with user-friendly press releases, invite them to product launches, and give them savoury snacks and drinks. Literally, I truly believe, the full price for buying a tech reporter to actively promote global genocide is a Heineken and a sausage roll. Or, in the UK, a porky pie, i.e. an outright lie.

Take a look at 1:56:30 in this video. It features Mr Barrie Trower, a retired British intelligence agent who was the UK government’s top expert in microwave warfare, and who has now become a major whistleblower, warning about the dangers of wireless technology. He describes how he has done hundreds of media interviews all over the world, and the only time his words were edited and mangled to say the opposite of what he meant, was when he was interviewed by the BBC. You are either aware that the BBC and the New York Times and their brethren in the mainstream media are the very ultimate in fake news, or you are not. I have lost count of the New York Times journalists I have lobbied without success on this issue.

I’m really tired of saying the same thing over and over again. I will just link to another of my comments, where I despairingly say:

With the rollout of 5G and the advent of the “smart city”, we are in the end game of the human species. If one tech journalist were to wake up, just one, just one decent reporter somewhere, someone with a heart and soul and a brain, they could save the world. I’m not holding my breath.

Literally:we do not have one single responsible tech journalist anywhere on this planet. Just one of you, just one, with media access, could do so much, if you were not so very busy kissing the arses of the people who are destroying the brains of all young people, permanently damaging the genetics of the human race, and poisoning the entire environment in ways worse than nuclear war. But invite the reporters to a glossy product launch, give them drinks, give them snacks, give them a nice press release to print verbatim, and all of this can be swept under the carpet. You sell your soul, you sell the entire human race, you sell the entire planetary ecosystem, for a sausage roll. That’s 21st century “tech journalism”.
