      Looks like Carlson got the "ix-nay on the anti-vaxxer-ay" memo but he's bristling at it.https://twitter.com/ndrew_lawrence/status/1417648922424659969 …

      Here Tucker Carlson says he's not attacking the vaccine he says "I'm against lying." He then he lies to cast doubt on the vaccine and says "they're telling us that once you get vaccinated you can't get it and you can't spread it" which was never said by "they" pic.twitter.com/pdHWrTgWzp

      Carlson is lying of course but the fact he's backtracking on the anti-vaxxing stuff even a little is a good sign. It's tragic this has become a culture war fight but it's a culture war fight where good policy can win.

      If there was an internal Fox memo saying "tone down the anti-vaxxing stuff" I'd be eager to see it, as would others. A good person to send it to would be @kenklippenstein, who protects his sources.https://twitter.com/ndrew_lawrence/status/1417648922424659969 …

          I would love to see the energy and attention devoted to the white nationalist tv station of choice to be reduced in lieu of providing the masses the necessary information to organize

          please explain why you think getting X personality over to pro vaccine is going to alter certain individuals behavior, the Conservatize media/politics isn't so much shaping opinion as getting out in front and pretending they are leading the rabble...talk to em they self select

          Vaccine messaging shifted is now obvious infections among vaccinated are common. It’s not anti-vax to point out truth it seems even highly vaccinated populations don’t have herd immunity now with ever shifting goal posts? ~90% vaccination goals irrational.
