    Default Mollie Hemingway: Media Has ‘Overstated Their Confidence’ In Mask-Wearing

    I often think of many of the "righties" of this forum when I watch Howard Kurtz. Anyway, here is what Mollie Hemingway has to say about masks, great article:

    Here is the article, in case anybody is worried about paywalls and such

    Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway cited the lack of concrete evidence to Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway cited the lack of concrete scientific eviden widespread mask-wearing to contend that the media has “overstated their confidence” in the practice and are using it as a “political cudgel” against skeptics.
    Fox News anchor Howard Kurtz introduced the topic on Sunday morning’s “Media Buzz” by pointing out prominent Republicans who are now encouraging mask usage, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and former Vice President Dick Cheney.

    “Why are the pundits so rankled that President Trump is not a leading proponent of mask-wearing?” Kurtz asked Hemingway.
    “Right, the outrage and shame directed at skeptics of mask-wearing is excessive and almost certainly counterproductive,” Hemingway responded. “The CDC couches the evidence in support of widespread mask-wearing as undetermined.”

    “It’s emerging they say but it’s undetermined,” she continued. “It’s totally fine for people to wear a mask and it might cause no problems, but I think the media have overstated their confidence based on this and just using it as a political cudgel. That’s not good to do in times of public health crises.” (RELATED: Rep. Andy Biggs And Neil Cavuto Duke It Out Over Masks: ‘If You Let Me Respond I Will Refute Every One Of Those Data Points’)
    Medical professionals on both sides of the issue have voiced their opinions. Democratic New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy urged mandatory mask-wearing earlier Sunday.

    Again more COVID propaganda. The point the MSM has missed is the fact that Operation COVID is an American Holodomor, a purposely created crisis intended to destroy this country from the inside out. The thing with the masks is about obedience, it's like Sharia Law where the women are forced to wear masks. Y'all need to wake up and understand that we're being brainwashed.

    Is each "new" day better than the previous one?

    Do you side with Mollie, or do you side with Howie the rino?

    Repetitive vomit. Most folks can multitask as they discuss things throughout the day, as in more than one subject. Now I know that trolls will sometimes pick a subject like a dog would a bone and never let go. And in some cases it's just folks with processor type brains, that live off of FIFO and LIFO. Both apply when the first and last thing in are one and the same.

    At least in groundhog day, Murray knew an awful lot, and evolved, and changed in order to succeed.

    Then other times I wonder what a liberals brain must feel like. Folks like liberals who lie daily about certain things and are hypocritical daily, and/or the MSM on repeat of fear porn or orange man bad. It is kind of like a disease. Just often wonder if such folks feel and think as if they have soup boiling within their skulls. Or if their thought patterns were all over the map, or can only allow for one thought at a time. And that may explain the daily hypocrisy, as when they develop a stance against Trump, for example, their brain spits out all other thought to consume that one, and old thoughts and stances simply disappear from their melons.

    I dropped a tab of acid ONCE in my life, and I'll never forget that weird feeling I had, the unexplained and the visual craziness, and of course lack of thought and remembering. Perhaps being on acid or other hallucinatory drugs is what it's like to be a liberal brain, or to be only able to consume one subject at a time.

    Looks like we have some Howard Kurtz fans in this community. I'm guessing that we have some Chris wallace and shep Smith fans as well.
