If one is smart enough and actually informed with respect to the process and the science, one is going to fight to get the COVID vaccine. If one is making millions of dollars dependent upon staying on the job, one would allow someone to inject prune juice into your arm, filled with worm DNA. (Which wouldn’t hurt a thing, other than maybe hurt).
This obvious fact is becoming increasingly awkward on Fox and Friends morning show, where the friends feel some ethical pull to tell the truth, Fox requires vaccination, while they also placate their audience by telling them what they want to hear; “Go and protest! Quit your $50,000 a year job while we make $50,000 a week!”
The dynamic slid right into Fox’s audience’s pointed little heads on Wednesday morning as the “friends” had a discussion about mandatory vaccinations:
STEVE DOOCY: Right, I mean, our company — like a lot of companies have vaccine requirements — we either had to have gotten the jabs, or get tested every day. And when we’re in common areas, everybody needs to wear a mask. There are a lot of companies coast to coast, I was just looking at brand new ones — General Electric, Union Pacific are requiring their employees to get the jabs. They’ve joined Tyson Food, Walmart, Boeing, IBM, Raytheon, already on board. What’s happening now here in New York City —
BRIAN KILMEADE: So they’re saying get the jab or you’re fired.
DOOCY: Essentially.
AINSLEY EARHARDT: Some of them are saying you can get tested.
KILMEADE: Fantastic. Be prepared to lose 10 to 15% of your workforce. I hope that’s OK.
As you’ll see in the clip, the hosts go on to celebrate Seattle firefighters who “turned in their boots” rather than comply.
You will also note that the three of them do not discuss why these companies are forcing their employees to comply. The obvious reason is that the science is in, the vaccine protects employees, which protects these companies’ investment. But again, that’s not something that someone watching Fox in the morning wants to hear.
Every single day it should be a topic of conversation that Fox News is a channel with a vaccine mandate populated by personalities who jumped the line the moment vaccines were available pumping out anti-vaccine fearmongering for no other reason besides blatant profiting.
