\n\tLiam Neeson <\/a>wants his fans to know that he\u2019s \u201cnever been and is not\u201d an anti-vaxxer, though some might get that impression if they tune in to a new, controversial anti-vaxx documentary.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThe Oscar-nominated actor narrates Plague of Corruption: 80 Years of Pharmaceutical Corruption Exposed, which journalists Walker Bragman and Olivia Riggio first reported in the Important Context<\/a> newsletter on Thursday. The film is based on a book by disgraced and debunked researcher Dr. Judy Mikovits and attorney Kent Heckenlively, who was previously denied a visa to Australia<\/a> over his \u201cdangerous\u201d views.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThe film\u2019s website touts it as \u201can explosive investigation into how pharmaceutical giants systematically captured governments and deceived families and communities worldwide.\u201d It includes interviews with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is praised for his \u201crelentless courage in challenging institutional corruption and defending medical freedom has sparked a worldwide movement for truth galvanizing millions across the globe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tAnd although Neeson is just the film\u2019s narrator, he can be heard labeling the mRNA COVID vaccines as \u201cdangerous experiments,\u201d describing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as the \u201cworst health crisis since HIV and AIDS,\u201d suggesting medical and science organizations \u201cdemand unconditional submission,\u201d as well as repeating other fringe talking points.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tIn a statement to Rolling Stone, a representative for Neeson said his participation in narrating the documentary does not constitute an endorsement of its message.\u00a0\u201cWe all recognize that corruption can exist within the pharmaceutical industry, but that should never be conflated with opposition to vaccines. Liam never has been, and is not, anti-vaccination,\u201d the representatives said. \u201cHis extensive work with UNICEF underscores his long-held support for global immunization and public-health initiatives. He did not shape the film\u2019s editorial content, and any questions about its claims or messaging should be directed to the producers.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n
