Carlson: Viewers They ‘Should Ignore’ People ‘Giving You Medical Advice on Television’

At one point Carlson brought up commentary from former Fox News reporter Carl Cameron calling out his vaccine “propaganda,” and laughed at him.

“There are a lot of those people giving you medical advice on television, and you should ignore them,” Carlson said. “The advice they’re giving you isn’t designed to help, it’s designed to make you comply. And you shouldn’t comply mindlessly. You’re an American adult. You’re allowed to ask simple questions and then demand clear answers.”

On Fox News earlier in the day, Steve Doocy urged viewers to get vaccinated, emphasizing that “99 percent of the people who died have not been vaccinated.” He told viewers they should get the shot, adding, “Get the shot, it will save your life.”

Hours later, John Roberts and Fox News medical analyst Dr. Marc Siegel talked up the importance of getting more people vaccinated. Roberts referred viewers to vaccines.gov for more information.
