Allegations that Aaron Rodgers once denied the Sandy Hook school shooting happened is gaining a lot of attention. The allegations were first published in a CNN exclusive.

CNN’s report claims the NFL quarterback told two sources that the school massacre was a hoax, the grieving parents were actors and it was a government inside job. CNN had two sources to corroborate the claims.

One was a reporter, Pamela Brown, who said the comments were made in 2013 when she first met Rodgers at a Kentucky Derby party. The other source was anonymous.

Rodgers responded to CNN’s report in a post on X, denying ever saying the Sandy Hook tragedy wasn’t real.

Right-leaning media are calling out CNN for the report while CNN is standing by its sources. 

“If you read that statement, Rodgers does not deny those statements he made to Pamela Brown and to the other source,” CNN’s Jake Tapper said.  

Fox News and Outkick called the story “a hit piece,” and The Washington Examiner called it a smear campaign on Rodgers.

Rodgers is no stranger to controversy or conspiracies. Rodgers has publicly questioned the safety of COVID-19 vaccines and events surrounding 9/11 and Jeffrey Epstein.

Many of his personal beliefs that have sprung into the public eye align with another controversial figure, presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who Rodgers has endorsed on social media.

RFK Jr. said he will announce his vice president pick on March 26, and Rodgers is reportedly in the running. It’s that announcement that CNN said inspired its sources to come forward about their alleged conversations with the quarterback.
