60 minutesDr. Peter Daszak, the researcher who appeared on 60 Minutes to criticize the Trump administration’s decision to withdraw millions of taxpayer dollars funding his joint research with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, donated to the Hillary Clinton campaign 13 times in 2016.
While the segment hammers the Trump administration for letting “pandemic politics†influence its coronavirus response, 60 Minutes is guilty of its own charge: citing political affiliation only when it bolsters their anti-Trump smear campaign but ignoring it if it would force viewers to think twice about Dr. Daszak’s underlying motives.
The infectious disease researcher and president of EcoHealth Alliance – the organization that received the $3.7 million grant in question – directed numerous donations towards the Hillary For America PAC, Clinton’s official campaign political action committee (PAC), totaling over $850.
