    Robert De Niro defends showing anti-vaccination documentary ?Vaxxed? at Tribeca Film Festival


    Critics say it?s a load of raging bull, but Robert De Niro is sticking by his decision to screen an anti-vaccination film at Tribeca Film Festival.

    ?Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe? strikes a personal chord, the Oscar winner said in a statement Friday.

    ?Grace (Hightower) and I have a child with autism and we believe it is critical that all of the issues surrounding the causes of autism be openly discussed and examined,? De Niro said.

    ?In the 15 years since the Tribeca Film Festival was founded, I have never asked for a film to be screened or gotten involved in the programming,? he continued. ?However this is very personal to me and my family and I want there to be a discussion, which is why we will be screening VAXXED.?

              After big pharma backed doctors pushed him, De Niro caved and pulled it.

                          No, it sounds like he educated himself about the fraudster behind the film.

                          "The controversial film was directed by Andrew Wakefield, a disgraced British former doctor who published a study in 1998 that claimed links between a vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) and autism. The paper was quickly found to contain numerous flaws and was deemed by the British Medical Journal ?an elaborate fraud?.

                              That's a smear, there are over 100 studies from other researchers making the same link, in fact a CDC whistleblower has even come out and confirmed the cover-up

                                  You mean after being shunned by everyone as a kook because he almost allowed a film displayed by a disgraced ex-doctor who's one study's evidence was proven, undoubtedly, to be fabricated by him? A film that would only harm and even kill people and save nobody? Is that what 'big pharma' is?

                                      That's what's known as the 'Official Story' which is pushed by the industry, in reality it's easy to find over 100 studies backing up Wakefield, there's also now a CDC whistleblower admitting the coverup, which is what inspired the film
