On Fox News, suddenly a very different tune about the coronavirus.
For weeks, some of Fox News’s hosts downplayed the threat of the coronavirus, characterizing it as a conspiracy by media organizations and Democrats to undermine President Trump.
Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham accused the news media of whipping up “mass hysteria” and being “panic pushers.” Trish Regan called the Main Stream Media response “yet another attempt to impeach the president.”
But that was then.
When Trump’s declared a national emergency, the tone on Fox News has quickly shifted. Hannity, suddenly the lauded the president’s handling of what the host is now, belatedly, referring to as a “crisis.”
“Tonight, we are witnessing what will be a massive paradigm shift in the future of disease control and prevention,” he said. “A bold, new precedent is being set, the world will once again benefit greatly from America’s leadership. . . . The federal government, state governments, private businesses, top hospitals all coming together, under the president’s leadership, to stem the tide of the coronavirus.”
In a complicated dance to mirror the president, Trump’s allies on Fox News took the same stance as the president for several weeks — that this coronavirus that had sickened and killed thousands of people in China was no worse a threat than the seasonal flu.
Just a week ago, Hannity shrugged at the pandemic. “So far in the United States, there’s been around 30 deaths, most of which came from one nursing home in the state of Washington,” he said, “Healthy people, generally, 99 percent recover very fast, even if they contract it.”
By way of comparison, he added: “Twenty-six people were shot in Chicago alone over the weekend. I doubt you heard about it. You notice there’s no widespread hysteria about violence in Chicago. And this has gone on for years and years. By the way, Democratic-run cities, we see a lot of that.”
Ingraham, also had a fast-dawning recognition that the social and economic dislocation of the virus was more than just a Democratic talking point wielded against the president.
In late February, Ingraham called Democrats the “pandemic party” and displayed photos of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) alongside enlarged images of coronavirus molecules. “How sick that these people seem almost happiest when Americans are hurting,” she said.
She kept at it through last Tuesday when, in front of a graphic reading “Trump confronts the panic pushers,” Ingraham said, “The public in some ways seems a lot more levelheaded than the so-called experts. . . . The facts are actually pretty reassuring, but you’d never know it watching all this stuff.”
On Friday, Ingraham tweeted that it was a “great time to fly if not in at-risk population!” The tweet was later deleted.
By Wednesday, after Trump announced a travel ban on people from the European Union, Ingraham had started calling the pandemic “this dangerous health crisis.” She characterized warnings issued by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases head Anthony S. Fauci about the potential spread of the disease as “sobering and scary to hear.”
Regan’s on-air speculation at the start of last week that coronavirus was merely another impeachment gambit for Democrats drew widespread pushback. Clearly the mood was changing at Fox by the time the network announced late Friday that her discussion-and-commentary program on Fox Business would leave the air indefinitely.
Tucker Carlson too, blamed the “corrupt” media. But in a monologue that many took at an indirect scolding of the president, he also complained that “none of our leaders helped us to take it seriously. . . . People you trust, people you probably voted for, have spent weeks minimizing what is clearly a very serious problem. It’s just partisan politics, they say. ‘Calm down. In the end, this is just like the flu and people die from that every year. Coronavirus will pass, and when it does, we will feel foolish for worrying about it.’ That’s their position. . . . But they’re wrong.”
Days earlier, Carlson attended the birthday party of former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, who is dating Donald Trump Jr.
In comments downplaying the pandemic on March 7, Jeanine Pirro, offered “All the talk about coronavirus being so much more deadly [than the flu] doesn’t reflect reality.” She reiterated Trump’s comment that the infection rate will drop “as the weather warms.”
On the “Fox & Friends” program Friday, Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. spun out a meandering tale advancing the baseless notion that the coronavirus was designed by North Korean and Chinese scientists to harm Americans.
The program’s three co-hosts offered no objections. Host Steve Doocy moved on to asking Falwell about Liberty’s plans to cancel classes.
Then on Sunday, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) appeared on Fox News and urged Americans to “stop panicking” and for those who are healthy to “just go out.”
Said Nunes: “There’s a lot of concerns with the economy here because people are scared to go out. But I will just say one of the things you can do if you’re healthy, you and your family, it’s a great time to just go out, go to a local restaurant.”
Anchor Maria Bartiromo offered no response to Nunes’s comment. On Monday, a day later, Fox News contributor Nicole Saphier, a doctor, specifically called out the congressman on air to contradict his advice and told viewers to stay home.
This is a quick summation of how Faux news has become nothing more than a platform for Trumpian Propaganda.

If Treasonous Trump weren’t such a F&@CKING MORON, NARCISSIST, & PATHOLOGICAL LIER, there would be more forgiveness for him showing a complete lack of leader this time - but we both know TT is all the before. When asked how he rated himself he said “the best, an A+, no one has done it better in the world, people are saying”.
You lie 16,214 times and counting, constantly peddle Conspiracy Theories to distract from your own criminal behavior, and people will loose trust in you. Look at these Faux posts, a large percentage have an element of Conspiracy in them. Is this do to sick minds, sick followers, a sick leader, or all the above? Think about it 🤔.
