Jenny McCarthy changes 'Anti-Vaccine' stance, 'The View' host claims she's always been 'Pro-Vaccine' [VIDEO]
There are a few things that most people know about Jenny McCarthy: she used to be a Playboy Model, she is currently one of the hosts of The View, and for years she has been a very outspoken "anti-vaccine" crusader. It turns out that last part is and never was true according to a new op-ed McCarthy wrote this week, published on the Chicago Sun Times.
"I am not 'anti-vaccine.' This is not a change in my stance nor is it a new position that I have recently adopted," she writes. "For years, I have repeatedly stated that I am, in fact, 'pro-vaccine' and for years I have been wrongly branded as 'anti-vaccine.'"
So we were wrong this whole time about McCarthy openly badmouthing vaccines over the years?
She continues: "Blatantly inaccurate blog posts about my position have been accepted as truth by the public at large as well as media outlets (legitimate and otherwise), who have taken those false stories and repeatedly turned them into headlines. What happened to critical thinking? What happened to asking questions because every child is different?"

Though this new statement might be pretty confusing to some of us who are familiar with this issue, Fox News's Megyn Kelly took some time this week to address McCarthy's apparent "flip-flop" stance.
