I'd say snopes paints a potentially different story.


It's possible the Post just made this up. Also possible the way the Post put it was largely true, and when called out on it, the CDC walked it back. The fact that leadership is being called out to clarify it did not call for censorship is not a bad thing.

If a walk back of something a little more authoritarian, this is what it would look like.
