Fox News ends its love affair with hydroxychloroquine

Hydroxychloroquine, a word that spilled like honey from the lips of her lovers at Fox News, is no longer welcome at the channel. Shunned like a Roger Ailes victim who complained about being assaulted, the chemical has been forgotten by its formerly infatuated swains, including Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham.

Maybe the rift began after those studies came out showing hydroxychloroquine didn’t work against coronavirus and in fact caused higher death rates then coronavirus patients who did not take the drug.

We’ll never know, because Fox News doesn’t want to talk about it.

“Will anyone who breathlessly pitched hydroxychloroquine as a miracle drug show a modicum of regret or even self-awareness over this? Doubtful,” tweeted Sam Stein of The Daily Beast. “More likely is they’ll ignore the study entirely.”

Fox News is past it. Can’t we do the same and respect their privacy in this personal matter between former lovers?
