Fox News viewers were hit with an awkward silence during a discussion between The Five hosts Jeanine Pirro and Jessie Tarlov about the coronavirus vaccine on Tuesday.
Discussing the responsibilities of social media firms' content moderation policies around coronavirus misinformation, the two hosts butted heads when Tarlov said that the COVID-19 vaccine is safe—and that Pirro, who scoffed at the remark, had received one.
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, is temporarily blocking searches regarding vaccines on its new platform, Threads. "We're too far into this, for this kind of behavior," Tarlov said, adding that the move is "distressing" given that "a majority of Gen Zs go to social media for their information."

Listening to some of these shows they throw zingers back and forth at one another all the time. In a written article that wants to but a show in a bad light it's very easy to take a comment out of context and make it into something it isn't. More smoke and mirrors and deflection tactics form the left. Basically, the war of credibility, trying to throw hand grenades at your opponents.
