    Can someone please run over to hell and check if it has frozen over? You see, I’ve just found myself nodding along to Fox News. On Sunday, Fox News personality Neil Cavuto implored viewers to “toss the political speaking points” and get vaccinated. “Life is too short to be an ***,” he said, adding that he expected to be attacked for his views.

    Telling people to get vaccinated during a pandemic shouldn’t be controversial. Cavuto’s employer has worked overtime to ensure that it is. A recent analysis by a media watchdog found 60% of Fox News’ summer programming included claims undermining vaccinations. While Fox has been amplifying anti-vaxxer propaganda, however, it has also been quietly enforcing its own strict vaccination and testing policies. Nearly 90% of full-time employees at the Fox Corporation have been vaccinated, it was reported last month. The company has also said it will soon implement daily Covid testing for employees who haven’t had the jab.

    It has become depressingly clear that we’re not going to end this pandemic by relying on everyone to do what is best for the greater good.

    lol. imagine believing that vaccination will actually end the pandemic. It won't because the vaccine is barely effective and it only lasts for half a year. You would literally have to vaccinate the entire population twice a year. We don't do this with the flu vaccine, so why is covid different? You keep creating all these random threads because you can't address this. It's hilarious. Pure midwit rage.
