Joe Kovacs wrote in a Jan. 9 WorldNetDaily article:
Elon Musk has launched a barrage of messages to sound the alarm about the lack of election integrity in America and the “insane” ease by which voter fraud can be committed.
“In the USA, you don’t need government issued ID to vote and you can mail in your ballot,” Musk began Monday night.
Musk added: “We should require government ID and in-person voting (unless valid medical/ military/etc excuse), like other countries do or like if you want to buy beer.”
He then said with an accompanying video: “Claiming that people can’t figure out how to get ID is racist and should be condemned in the strongest possible terms.”
Musk also noted: “Literally the same people who said voter ID was racist also demanded that you get a vaccine ID to travel anywhere or work!”
As the New York Times pointed out, Musk is spreading misinformation, having nothing to stop him after dismantling Twitter/X’s trust and safety team that previously flagged such things. Kovacs is only too happy to help that misinformation spread, since spreading misinformation — particularly about elections — is his job as a WND employee. He also couldn’t be bothered to find anyone critical of Musk’s misinformation, since letting such things stand uncorrected is critical to its spread; he simply quoted other people parroting the same misinformation. Indeed, WND has spread misinformation from Musk before.
This kind of lazy and biased reporting is yet another reason why WND doesn’t really deserve to live.
