Fox News disputes the findings of a new study that suggests regular viewers of the show Hannity were more likely to die from coronavirus than those who preferred Tucker Carlson Tonight.

The study, titled "Misinformation During a Pandemic," was first published Sunday by the University of Chicago's Becker Friedman Institute for Economics. Researchers asserted that reduced incidences of Covid-19 and lower death rates among Fox News viewers were associated a more serious view of the health crisis taken early on by host Tucker Carlson.

"Carlson warned viewers that the coronavirus might pose a serious threat from early February," wrote the researchers. "While Hannity first ignored the topic on his show and then dismissed the risks associated with the virus, claiming that it was less concerning than the common flu and insisting that Democrats were using it as a political weapon to undermine the president."

More hard hitting science based news from the MSM.  While the rest of the world was trying to figure out how to stop or slow the Coronavirus, the University of Chicago's Becker Friedman Institute for Economics figured out which Fox News host would kill you first.  Huge applause to Newsweak for their couragous coverage of this story. /sarc

 :rolling:  How can Newsweak be so oblivious to the meaning of "Fake News?"

Thank goodness you lead off with this.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
