The days are over that Dr. Anthony Fauci smiled for the camera and any question about the criticism he gets waved away. Any reasonable viewer could see that he really did not care about media or public criticism, but was open to questions or criticism from colleagues and knew he had to answer to a boss somewhere.
But, again, it has not come to the point that it seems acceptable to equate him with one of history’s greatest monsters, Nazi Josef Mengele. Out of respect for Mengele’s victims, this site will provide only one example of his atrocities. He removed organs from people without anesthesia. It is disturbing to hear, but we must remember in the name of his victims.
The example also reinforces the outrageous equation of Fauci and Mengele, as Fox’s Lara Logan did and then defended. Although Fauci had his fights with Rand Paul, this is the first time his outrage has been conveyed to the media. Something would be wrong if he was not angry and Fauci wants Logan gone.
Fauci Video on MSNBC:
Dr. Fauci said:
Forget about the fact that she was completely slanderous towards me and as usual had no idea what she was talking about, saying that it was as benign as flu. When did the flu ever kill 770,000 Americans?
So she is not only slanderous and disrespectful to so many people in the concentration camps by Dr. Mengele was not killed, but she has absolutely no idea what she’s talking about. She is completely wrong in everything she says.
What I find striking, Chris, is how does she get no discipline from the Fox Network at all, how can they get her to say it without comment and no disciplinary action? I’m amazed at that.
Well.
Those of us charged with the duty to monitor Fox and his political coverage on a daily basis are not “stunned” because we see outrageous things on a daily basis – even though it goes far beyond the ordinary. It’s disappointing that they did not even take her off the air or address the remarks. Fox is an abomination, but Logan is not Tucker. Fox does not make hundreds of millions from her. Fox had cut the sacrificial lambs loose before and could do the right thing here.
It’s almost certain that there are some executives and producers at Fox who want Logan fired. But it is also likely that the network even has the semblance of support for dr. Fauci fear and can not afford to make a move they would prefer to make.
One thing can not be argued. One will worry about any doctor not responding with the appropriate outrage.
