Conservative radio host hospitalized with COVID-19, urges vaccinations
By Lexi Lonas - 07/24/21 09:39 AM EDT

Conservative radio host Phil Valentine has been hospitalized after contracting the coronavirus, with his family saying he regrets not getting the vaccine.

His family said in a statement he is suffering from “COVID Pneumonia” and is in the critical care unit. He needs breathing assistance but is not on a ventilator, Radio Online reported.

Valentine has hosted “The Phil Valentine Show” for years on WWTN, speaking to his audience for four hours on weekdays.

"Phil would like for his listeners to know that while he has never been an 'anti-vaxer' he regrets not being more vehemently 'Pro-Vaccine,' and looks forward to being able to more vigorously advocate that position as soon as he is back on the air, which we all hope will be soon,” his family said in their statement.

“Phil & his family would like for all of you to know that he loves ya'll and appreciates your concern, thoughts & prayers more than you will ever know. Please continue to pray for his recovery and please go get vaccinated!" the statement continued.

The Hill hopes to perpetuate the MYTH that there is some sort of ideological delineation between the vaccinated & those refusing to get the vaccine. The fact is the problem seems to be resistance to vaccination in black and hispanic communities.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
He could have just as easily taken the shot and gotten covid anyway, and died.

Sounds like his "family" is puppeteering and putting words in his mouth while he is unable to speak for himself.

As a talk radio host, how would he even been high enough of a risk to be exposed? His work is entirely in a studio, pretty much alone!
