| Fox News under fire for promoting bullshit during a pandemic. |
Fox News is an American conservative cable news channel. It's owned by Australian-American billionaire Rupert Murdoch. I dubbed him, Rupert "Pervert" Murdoch for the fact he dates young women and runs a culture of sexism, racism, extremism and yellow journalism in the name of profit.
He is a conservative business executive. His eldest sons Lachlan and James run the company Fox Corporation (a former entity of Newcorp, Inc). Murdoch sold the majority of his networks to the Walt Disney Company and has minor stake in the brand.
The network is provided in the 86 countries and overseas territories.
It operates at 1211 Avenue of the Americas in the city of New York.
It is the number one cable news channel in the United States.
It is vilified by the far-white extremist rhetoric from its hosts and contributors. It's a favorite among Donald J. Trump who actually takes advice from some of the on-air talent.
The most recent talent are now under fire for misleading its coverage in the COVID-19 pandmeic.
Lachlan is facing pressure to clamp down on Fox News talent throwing conspiracy theories in the wake of a public emergency.
James is more moderate than Lachlan. He wanted to do a complete overhaul of its talent.
Trevor Noah and The Daily Show are on hiatus and he's been doing his shows from his home.
He made a supercut of Fox News agitators denouncing the threat and blaming the Democrats for raising concerns.
Sean "Softball" Hannity, the most annoying agitator in the media is the focus of the ire. He is a "shadow chief-of-staff" for Trump.
Softball Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Jesse Watters, Steve Doocy and others crossed a line between opinion and full-on conspiracy theories.
A transparency watchdog’s lawsuit against Fox News over its handling of the Covid-19 pandemic – including repeatedly calling it a hoax during broadcasts – is as novel as the coronavirus but likely won’t get far, according to legal experts.
The Washington League for Transparency and Ethics sued Fox News on Thursday, saying the network’s consistent downplaying of the pandemic in the early stages of the outbreak in the United States encouraged people to behave in ways contrary to what was required to stem the spread.
“Defendants knowingly disseminated false, erroneous, and incomplete information, which was reasonably relied upon by the public and which had the effect of delaying and interfering with the implementation of effective mitigation and countermeasures against the virus,” the League said in the complaint. “Defendants’ actions created an ongoing uncertainty amongst some members of the public as to the dangers of the virus and the rapidity with which the virus spreads.”
WASHLITE said one of its members eventually contracted the coronavirus during epidemiological conditions the plaintiffs allege were created, in part, by the malfeasance of the network.
“The defendants have created an epidemiological hazard,” WASHLITE said in the complaint. “A subset of the population has and will continue to ignore or resist reasonable and necessary efforts to control and mitigate the virus and prevent mass death.”
Fox News dismissed the lawsuit as frivolous.
“Wrong on the facts, frivolous on the law,” said Lily Fu Claffee, general counsel for Fox News Media. “We will defend vigorously and seek sanctions as appropriate.”
Thursday’s lawsuit in Washington state is the first known one of its kind filed against the conservative media organization, although it may not be the last.
Trump has been taking most of the blame for his handling of the coronavirus. Yet, he continues to blame the governors, Barack Obama and the junk food media for his handling of this.
With the coronavirus pandemic, Americans are being ordered to stay at home if they're sick and those who are able to work are doing under tight restrictions. Many companies had to lay off millions because of the spread of the coronavirus.
Here's things to remember about the coronavirus.
1. Wash your hands frequently
2. Do not touch your face (mouth, nose and eyes)
3. Cough into your elbow instead of your hands.
4. Keep a safe distance (at least 6 to 10 feet) from individuals.
5. If you're sick, please stay home.
6. There is no treatment or cure for the COVID-19.
7. Follow state and federal laws regarding this.
8. Do not hoard items like toilet paper, bread, gloves, hand sanitizer, etc.
9. Use social media like Facebook Messenger, Google Duo, Skype or social media to connect.
10. COVID-19 can live on surfaces for more than 72 hours. Including steel, plastic and cardboard.
11. A pandemic has no timeline.
12. COVID-19 doesn't care about borders.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19.
Healthy people can die from this.
If you need more information, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at cdc.gov.
No one is immuned from the coronavirus. There were a handful of entertainers, politicians, people in the news and folks you may have known dying of the COVID-19.
At current pace with 335.3 million folks, we could experience a massive causality event. For ever 5 hours someone is dying from this.
Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Brix have estimated that the peak of viral spread could reach 4 million with 100,000 to 250,000 deaths.
This is some real crazy shit going on. Everyone, including myself, LeReyna, our contributors, our wonderful readers, our families, our friends, our neighbors and yes, the critics are at risk of COVID-19.
