The Epoch Times, Cuba Gooding Jr., and why it matters

MANY POORLY EDUCATED RIGHT WINGERS LAPPED UP THE ANTI-VAX MANURE CIRCULATED BY EPOCH TIMES AND LINKED TO THEIR ARTICLES. 

It's easier to embrace MANURE than to be forced to THINK.....

EPOCH TIMES' CREDIBILITY IS IN THE TOILET FOR ANYONE WHO EXPLORES & INVESTIGATES. 

AT tRUMP'S RECENT RALLY, THE tRUMPERS CHEERED WHEN THE ORANGE TURD 

SPOKE OF BANNING VACCINATIONS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS....THAT DEFINES 

THE STUPIDITY OF THE CULT, TOO LAZY TO EVEN CONSIDER INVESTIGATING OR RESEARCHING INFORMATION....THIS AT A TIME WE HAVE A MEASLES OUTBREAK....

THIS IS NOT PARTISAN - IT'S PUBLIC HEALTH!

EPOCH TIMES MEDIA BIAS & CREDIBILITY

NPR MONEY LAUNDERING

THIS FROM THE MURDOCH TABLOID NY POST: 

Epoch Times CFO charged over staggering $67M money laundering scheme using prepaid debit cards

Remember The Epoch Times?

The Epoch Times is a far-right news outlet known for spreading anti-vaccine misinformation and 2020 election conspiracies. They spent more money on advertising for Donald Trump in 2020 than any organization outside the Trump campaign.

You may have seen their bizarre “#1 trusted news” billboards popping up in cities nationwide:

Now, The Epoch Times’ influence is growing. Recently they announced they are considering a new journalism school and now, they are entering the faith-based movie market with a new film starring Cuba Gooding Jr.

We’ll tell you more about their latest venture (and why it matters) in a moment. But if you want to help us combat The Epoch Times' right-wing propaganda and conspiracy theories, can you pitch in $5.00 now?

Yesterday, The Epoch Times released “The Firing Squad,” a drama starring Cuba Gooding Jr. about drug smugglers who find God behind bars.

This move into faith-based films aims to tap into a lucrative market, which conservative filmmakers claim counters Hollywood’s “liberal” agenda.

Here’s why this matters: a feature film with a well-known actor like Gooding Jr. legitimizes The Epoch Times to the public, especially evangelicals who may already be inclined to believe their far-right conspiracies.

A successful film unit could generate significant revenue for The Epoch Times, allowing them to sustain and expand their news operations.

The New York Times has already called The Epoch Times “one of the country’s most powerful digital publishers.” If their film venture succeeds, their influence will only grow.

That’s the bad news. The good news is that at COURIER, we’re actively working to counter right-wing misinformation. Online and in swing states, we combat misinformation machines like The Epoch Times where people see them most. Can you chip in $5.00 to help us stop the spread of misinformation online?
