Trump Jr. Declared ‘Devoid of Something Resembling Judgement’ After Violent Meme About Joe Biden

Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson is accused of fueling skepticism about coronavirus vaccines and the discussion against Vaxxer when he asked questions Monday night as if they were unanswered and legitimate – questions that have been answered very publicly for months.

“All of this should pose some pretty tough questions to our public health experts in this country,” Carlson told hundreds of thousands of viewers. “And one of those questions is how effective is this coronavirus vaccine. How necessary is it to take the vaccine? Don’t dismiss these questions from ‘anti-Vaxxers’, ”he said scornfully.

“Don’t kick people off social media for asking them, answer the questions.”

“The administration wants you to take this vaccine. Joe Biden told you last week if you don’t you can’t celebrate July 4th. It turns out, however, that there are things we don’t know about the effects of this vaccine – and all vaccines, by the way. “

Americans generally agree that the job of a journalist is to educate, deliver news and intelligence, and not to ask basic questions that are easy to answer, since in this case the federal government and vaccine manufacturers have already answered them .

These aren’t state secrets, but so many on social media have found that putting them as if they were them will encourage anti-Vaxx skepticism, and it can be fatal during a pandemic.

Check out Carlson from his Monday night show:

These questions Tucker thinks you shouldn’t ask are literally just a Google search away. There are so many answers to these questions available on the computer that you keep in your pocket. Pic.twitter.com/kcnTVciA6O

Last year, CNN reported that Carlson makes $ 10 million a year. And while everyone’s combined annual salaries I know doesn’t reach that staggering number, let’s do Tucker’s job for him.

Just going to google and typing “like e” literally gave me the answer:

And as most Americans already know, vaccines range between about 85% (Johnson & Johnson, one dose) and about 95% (Moderna and Pfizer, two doses).

But Carlson believes the government is hiding this information. It is not.

Media Matters has a longer clip here.

Here’s how some react:

The vaccines are extremely effective, so Rupert Murdoch got them asap. You will remember Rupert Murdoch, he’s Tucker’s boss.

No exaggeration: Tucker Carlson takes responsibility for the deaths of the thousands who watch this and chooses to forego a vaccine or those in contact with them. Understand the gravity of this moment. Carlson sends people to their deaths. https://t.co/Xln7Qi2TvC

Tucker Carlson runs his show, which undermines public confidence in Covid vaccines. Public health experts need to ask themselves questions: “One of those questions is, ‘How effective is this coronavirus vaccine? How necessary is it to take the vaccine? ‘”

I don’t like Rupar, but I have to agree with him. That was one of the worst Tucker Carlson episodes remembered. In addition to the obvious vaccination skepticism and alarmism … he followed this segment with a visit from Tusli Gabbard, who is not exactly for the vaccine.

Tucker is on his show right now and is pushing for vaccine skepticism so he’s probably out …

Her reminder that Rupert Murdoch, who controls Fox, got himself a Covid vaccine as soon as he was able to do it in December. Still, he pays for his top host to go on TV and undermine the public’s trust in them. https://t.co/KOLI0skXuR

Tonight on Fox Propaganda, rape apologist Tucker Carlson, a white supremacist, created a segment to criticize the effectiveness of the Covid vaccine.

His wicked employer, Rupert Murdoch, went to the UK to get a vaccine as soon as they got it ready well before the US. So effective, bastard.

Tucker asks, “How effective is this coronavirus vaccine?”
Answer: 100% effective against hospitalization and death.
Tucker asks, “How necessary is it to take the vaccine?”
Answer: The lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans depend on it. https://t.co/35WvClHCPM

Anyone who broadcasts Tucker Carlson: @comcast @CoxComm @Verizon @ATT must be boycotted unless they request that they be removed from the Fox Network. Spreading false information about the covid vaccine will literally kill Americans. The death toll is increasing every day.

I came here to say just that. Tucker Carlson spat out lies about the vaccine while his employer Rupert Murdoch couldn’t get it fast enough. Smh

Well, I think Tucker wants to eliminate half of his audience by making them avoid vaccines. There will be a massive Darwin Awards ceremony later this year. https://t.co/hgsDQ0x5Jb

Well, Tucker, a man of your intelligence has the ability to read the data and the studies. And if you didn’t know, they’re easily accessible. Either set them up so you don’t sound stupid or better prepare for your next segment when talking about vaccines and their safety. Https://t.co/1gQlgPI0J9
