The title comes from The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/media/2022/oct/21/newsmax-lara-logan-qanon-conspiracy-theory), but other outlets have similar headlines.
Lara Logan, a former correspondent for 60 Minutes and CBS News gave a bizarre interview on rightwing Newsmax with claims that "open border is Satan’s way of taking control of the world” and that the world’s elites “want us eating insects [and] cockroaches” while they “dine on the blood of children.” Here's a link to the video https://youtu.be/3vfGHPLturQ
I had several concerns:
- What type of children? Free range? Non-GMO? White? Non-white?(I'm guessing that some might encourage the eating of "those other children". You know the ones. (Not OUR kind.) )
- Are the children fattening? (Does it go to your thighs? I hate that.)
- Is that really her speaking? There is a fear of deep fakes - technology being used to manipulate audio and video to make it seem that what didn't happen did.
The third item is probably not a fake because multiple media outlets reported it. But curiously, searching the Newsmax site for "Lara Logan" there is no mention of the incident:
It will be interesting to see how this is spun.
