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.

IT’S A STORY THAT NEARLY EVERY MEDIA OUTLET HAS PICKED UP.
IS AARON RODGERS A SANDY HOOK DENIER?
IT’S A SERIOUS ALLEGATION FIRST PUBLISHED IN A CNN EXCLUSIVE.
CNN SAYS THE QUARTERBACK TOLD TWO SOURCES THE SCHOOL MASSACRE WAS “A HOAX”.
THE GRIEVING PARENTS WERE “ACTORS”.
AND IT WAS “A GOVERNMENT INSIDE JOB.”
CNN’S SOURCES? A REPORTER “PAMELA BROWN” WHO SAYS THE COMMENTS WERE MADE IN 2013 WHEN SHE FIRST MET RODGERS AT A KENTUCKY DERBY PARTY.
THE OTHER SOURCE – IS AN ANONYMOUS ONE.
RODGERS RESPONDED – DENYING EVER SAYING THE TRAGEDY WASN’T REAL.
RIGHT-LEANING MEDIA ARE CALLING OUT CNN FOR THE REPORT.
WHILE CNN IS STANDING BY THEIR SOURCES.
IT WAS THIS HEADLINE BY CNN THAT STARTED ALL THE CHATTER.
“RFK JR’S V-P PROSPECT AARON RODGERS HAS SHARED FALSE SANDY HOOK CONSPIRACY THEORIES IN PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS.”
CNN’S JAKE TAPPER – DOUBLED DOWN ON RODGERS EVEN AFTER HE RELEASED THIS RESPONSE TO CNN’S ALLEGATIONS.
[AARON RODGERS]
As I’m on the record saying in the past, what happened in Sandy Hook was an absolute tragedy. I am not and have never been of the opinion that the events did not take place.
[JAKE TAPPER]
“Today, aaron rodgers is responding to our report. Kind of. If you read that statement, rodgers does not deny those statements he made to pamela brown and to the other source.”
[KARAH RUCKER]
WHILE CNN STANDS BY THEIR REPORT –
RIGHT LEANING NEWS OUTLETS ARE SLAMMING IT.
FOX NEWS CALLED IT A HIT PIECE.
OUTKICK TOO.
AND THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER – CALLED IT A SMEAR CAMPAIGN ON AARON RODGERS.
RODGERS IS NO STRANGER TO CONTROVERSY OR CONSPIRACIES.
IN A CROSSOVER FROM SPORTS TO NEWS HEADLINES –
RODGERS HAS BEEN IN THE MEDIA QUESTIONING THE SAFETY OF COVID VACCINES.
QUESTIONING EVENTS SURROUNDING 9/11 AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN.
MANY OF HIS PERSONAL BELIEFS SPRUNG INTO THE PUBLIC EYE –
ALIGN WITH ANOTHER CONTROVERSIAL FIGURE.
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE “RFK JUNIOR.”
WHO RODGERS HAS ENDORSED ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
RFK JUNIOR SAYS HE WILL ANNOUNCE ON MARCH 26TH WHO HIS V-P PICK IS.
RODGERS IS REPORTEDLY IN THE RUNNING.
IT WAS **THAT ANNOUNCEMENT THIS WEEK – THAT CNN SAYS INSPIRED THEIR SOURCES TO COME FORWARD ABOUT THEIR ALLEGED CONVERSATIONS WITH THE QB.
