CNN spasmed over this; check out the YouTube comments. Quick summary; Biden / Armageddon.

“Our results show that Fox News is reducing COVID-19 vaccination uptake in the United States, with no evidence of the other major networks having any effect,” the study from researchers at ETH Zurich concluded. “[T]here is an association between areas with higher Fox News viewership and lower vaccinations,” noting that “media emphasis on minority viewpoints against scientific consensus is linked to vaccination hesitancy.”

So, in addition to spewing disinformation and lies, Fox News is literally killing its viewers.

Isn't the primary (and sometimes only goal) of every business enterprise in our country is to make money. Heck even NASA and MIC (government organizations) are primarily setup to make money for their contractors.
