CNN's John King announces he has MS, in response to Fox News' lies about the Covid vaccine
Fox News lied about Colin Powell's death in order to undermine the Covid vaccine. So why do so many companies still advertise on Fox and subsidize these dangerous lies?
CNN host John King divulged yesterday that he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis thirteen years ago. King did this, out of nowhere — he hadn’t planned it — because he was so incensed that Fox News was lying about Colin Powell’s death in order to undermine trust in the Covid vaccine.
King explains in the video below:
Several Fox News personalities, including Tucker Carlson, suggested that Powell’s death from Covid proved the vaccine didn’t work, and, as Carlson told his viewers, the government and the world’s top scientists “lied” to us about the vaccine’s effectiveness. In fact, Powell was 84 and suffering from a rare blood cancer called Multiple Myeloma. He was thus severely immunocompromised by the disease and its treatment, and the vaccine would have been far less likely to be effective as a result. But Fox News never even mentioned this. They simply said “he was vaccinated and he died,” in order to trick people into thinking the vaccine was the problem.
Which brings us back to the question I posed in yesterday’s post: Why do so many top American (and foreign) companies continue to finance Fox News’ deadly’s lies?
CNN’s Oliver Darcy went off on this topic, at length, in his email news recap last night:
Let me reiterate Darcy: Fox News is dangerous, and literally killing people.
Then why is it that every single one of the companies I list below had ads on Fox News in the past 72 hours? I watched them all, they were all there. You can click the link associated with each name and tweet the company, asking them why they are financing the death of Americans.
