I know they have a conservative agenda, but what good does it do anybody to discredit one of the leading doctors during this pandemic?

Is it just partisan bullshit or is there another motivation? Im genuinely curious.

They aren't. They are pandering to people who already feel this way.

Partisan bullshit and trying to convince everyone everything is good now so the rich can get more money. FN is the propaganda outlet for Republicans and the rich.

He's pretty bad when looking at his history and his connections. Plus he's been blatantly wrong and contradictory like 3-5 times now on Corona alone.

Yeah, hes a human being. And to be fair, we dont know if Trump was pushing him to say things to mitigate panic at first, hence the contradictions.

He is competent. Trump is not. His views contradict those of Trump. Fox news is only really accelerating the pattern of anti-science and anti-expertise rhetoric that the GOP began years ago.

For a guy who named himself "Knowledge_King", your posts reek of ignorance. In fact, they're so dumb, I almost have to assume you know your low level and named yourself ironically.

you mean he, a scientist, does not know all of the answers?! and he draws conclusions and makes recommendations to the public at the time based on existing information, which may continue to grow? And then updates his recommendations after new evidence emerges?

awful shit.

Dr. Fauci is an enemy of the state. This is the type of society we're living in now. We thought the "us against them" mentality was bad before, just give it another couple of years.

Because every doctor/scientist that speaks out against Fauci gets silenced and someone needs to at least challenge the narrative.

They don't get silenced, they get shot down with facts and logic. The two greatest enemies of Trump and his Keyboard Warriors.

  1. He contradicts Trump constantly. My guess is they are trying to leverage that to get Trump to turn on him and fire him.
  2. Public health experts are saying the country needs to stay closed. Rich powerful interests want things to open so they can make more money.
  3. By maligning Fauci they can turn him into a partisan figure and reduce the trust conservatives have in him. You see stuff like the liberate and anti vaxx movements right now and they dont trust people like Fauci and want the economy to open back up.
  4. He is more trusted by Trump. FOX news cant influence a man of science with their false narratives like they can with Trump. There have been instances where they run a bullshit story and a half hour later you will see Trump ranting about it on Twitter.
