Dereliction of professional duty: Fox News is guilty of malpractice



New York Times, 7/11/2021

With about a third of adults in the U.S. still completely unvaccinated, and cases of COVID-19 on the rise, the U.S. surgeon general is calling for a war against "health misinformation." On Thursday, Dr. Vivek Murthy released the first surgeon general's advisory of his time serving in the Biden administration, describing the "urgent threat" posed by the rise of false information around COVID-19 — one that continues to put "lives at risk" and prolong the pandemic.

The NPR report does not call out Fox News for its outrageous, reckless, and egregious behavior.
