According to this group, Substack is generating “at least $2.5 million a year in revenue from just five anti-vaccine leaders who have amassed tens of thousands of subscribers, each paying $50 a year”·       The CCDH also claims the content on Substack is “so bad no one else will host it”·       Substack CEO Chris Best and his two cofounders have brushed off calls for censorship, saying that allowing “the presence of writers with whom we strongly disagree” is a “necessary precondition for creating more trust in the information ecosystem as a whole”Well, that didn’t take long! Mere weeks after my announcement that I was reintroducing my deleted article archives and moving them to Substack, the mainstream press started calling on Substack to censor vaccine critics from its platform.All proceeds from my content library will be donated to our nonprofits, just like the profits from my book. To their credit, Substack CEO Chris Best and his two cofounders have refused calls for censorship, saying "We believe that critique and discussion of controversial issues are part of robust discourse, so we work to find a reasonable balance between priorities."2 O   INSIDE MERCOLA.COMo   About Dr. Mercola and Mercola.como   Health Articleso   PodcastSupport the show
