The "author" of each of these articles is Tyler Durden. Tyler Durden is a fake name, its the name of Brad Pit's character in fight club.

It's not real journalism when there's no real journalist fellas.
Actually, it is lifted from other sources around the web...he is not the author.

400,000,000 under quarantine in China...6th largest city was put under martial law yesterday. Something to ponder regarding the severity ...

More fact than fiction in that article....read the Senator Church commission report...There are agencies that are not well known to the public like DARPA and the DTRA that have covert projects for the DOD and CIA going back at least to the 1970’s

Btw Tyler Durden did not write that Article...just published it.

In a newspaper or magazine article, the byline is the line where the author writes his or her name. On this article, it says "By Tyler Durden."

If he stands by his propaganda, he should use his real name.

There is no source, because the Chinese government is not going to tell anyone the truth. There’s no way for WHO to know the correct numbers. There’s no way for anyone to know. It will never be known.

This is an accurate statement. We need to focus on the data from countries like Japan, Singapore and South Korea.

Roger,
You don't have to make this personal, can't we have a rational discussion?

Don't you think a journalist or a pundit should use their real name? Using a nom de plum from a movie like Fight Club should tell one all they need to know about Tyler and Zerohedge.

The big worry is whether the doctors and nurses in China can continue to meet the huge pressures under which they are working. I suspect they need some outside help but to date the Govt has turned down offers of help for whatever reasons. Could be pride but it maybe that the situation is more serious than they want to admit.

In most articles the real source is attributed...unless it is a kind of Durden "editorial".

come on Brad, linking to another conspiracy website (Epoch Times in this case) is not how you site a real source.

Seriously.

Yes that ^

For us living in North America, South America, UK, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Russia, Cuba, Jamaica, France, Spain, Greece, Finland, Oregon, Manhattan, Westminster, etc., the Coronavirus is not a big treat right now with only few cases. We take our news with serious consideration to our future health...for us and our children and elders. All the news sources (almost) report similar stats on numbers, in causes and effects. Our global health and economy concern us all, almost.

I have zero problem linking the latest (coronavirus) from WHO and ZeroHedge or any other news outlet like the BBC, The Guardian, The New York Time, The Washington Post, CBC, CNN, La Presse, Le Figaro, ...newspaper outlets across the globe that report the news to the best of their reliability and abilities and solid sources @ the service of an informed educated intelligent advanced concerned population. No bull, without bias without detour without manipulation.

With that said we sure don't need to fight among ourselves as to which news outlet is better or worst. This is not the topic, Coronavirus is and without any ambiguity and discrimination and ambivalence.

No more fight here, we take the fight for the human rights, for the human health, with all world viruses in stopping this latest one quick @ the head (cutting it) by finding fast the cure.
Not us audiophiles but the scientists of the world human health. There is zero difference if it's WHO or ZeroHedge we get our info from; viruses don't care.

An international led WHO team is now due to visit very soon which is progress.
The pressures are huge on the medics. They are working 12 hour shifts and longer and some have resorted to wearing adult nappies because of the fragilities of the hazmat suits if removed to go to the toilet.
Worrying

what is a real source these days? CNN? How many times have they had to retract inaccurate stories. WaPO?? NYT? All as heavily slanted one way as some other sites are the other way.

The Epoch Times news sites and YouTube channels have spread conspiracy theories such as QAnon and anti-vaccination propaganda. I haven't seen any QAnon or anti-vax articles in the Economist or the WSJ. If that's where you want to get your news, then good luck.

I'll drop my Zerohedge argument as you all seem to be enthralled with conspiracy sites that sight each other as news sources. It's the oldest trick in the book.

This fencing over news sources is clearly political.

I'm deleting all of these posts.

Stop the politics! This means YOU!
