Fux news is KILLING people. It literally is!!

This guy called in saying the federal govt needs to crack down on the “corrupt media” and that Obama did nothing about swine flu until 18,000 had died

Omg. Obama declared a public health emergency after the very first death! And swine flu had a mortality rate of 0.02% (only 20% as deadly as normal flu). Covid-19 is ~2%. 100x worse than swine flu

But Fux keeps their cultists in abject ignorance
