But Which Conspiracy Theory Is Aaron Rodgers' Favorite?

CNN revealed yesterday that proud COVID vaccine critic Aaron Rodgers, the NFL quarterback who appears to be at the top of Robert Kennedy Jr.'s running mate short list, is also a Sandy Hook truther:

... in private conversations [Rodgers] shared deranged conspiracy theories about the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting not being real.

CNN knows of two people with whom Rodgers has enthusiastically shared these stories, including with Pamela Brown, one of the journalists writing this piece.

Brown was covering the Kentucky Derby for CNN in 2013 when she was introduced to Rodgers, then with the Green Bay Packers, at a post-Derby party. Hearing that she was a journalist with CNN, Rodgers immediately began attacking the news media for covering up important stories.
