The report makes it sound like they just did this today. Further searching of the internet and you find out that this was done in the mid 1980s per this little
tidbit articleThe mid 1980s is hardly new news and I think MSNBC should be ashamed of even attempting to mislead people with this trash. Was it a horrible thing to do? If done intentionally YES... most definately. However, considering the knowledge that we held about AIDS over 20 years ago I would not be at all surprised if they were unable to adequately test for it. I mean come on... this
Report here says that AIDS was first reported in the US in 1981!!! Just a few years later and they are supposed to know everything about how this disease was transmitted?
Personally this is why no one should ever take anything you see in the media as truth... and I hate to say it but especially US media. Modern USA media is as one sided and politically motivated as the old communist Russian Pravda at the height of the cold war.
