Prominent tech journalist blames "Fox, the whole Fox, and nothing but the Fox" for her mom not taking coronavirus seriously

TheWrap

In a scathing New York Times Op-Ed, ReCode founder Kara Swisher writes that Fox News is her mom's primary news source, including for coronavirus information. “But she was not concerned — and it was clear why," writes Swisher. "Her primary source of news is Fox. In those days she was telling me that the COVID-19 threat was overblown by the mainstream news media (note, her daughter is in the media). She told me that it wasn’t going to be that big a deal. She told me that it was just like the flu." In response to the Op-Ed, Sean Hannity called on Swisher to sue him. Swisher responded: "I am not suing you, Bag ‘O Rage, as I noted in the column in the 1st line. But in the court of public opinion, a daughter concerned her mom has dangerously bad information and does not want her to get sick and die versus a super spreader of that pernicious dreck — I like my odds!"
