Fox News Disappears Lara Logan From the Air Following Fauci Attack
[GatewayPundit] On Thursday Dr. Fauci complained publicly about Lara Logan’s comments comparing him to the Nazi doctor. VIDEO at the link.

Following her comments about Dr. Anthony Fauci during a Fox News appearance on Monday, Lara Logan has been noticeably absent from the airwaves this week, having made zero appearances since.

"Has Lara Logan been quietly benched by Fox News? All indications are yes," CNN’s Oliver Darcy pointed out in the Reliable Sources newsletter. "Fox isn’t commenting on the matter, but prior to that Monday appearance, Logan was a mainstay on the network. Now she has disappeared."

Darcy may have a point. Looking into some immediately prior appearances, we found that for the week of November 21 to 27, Logan was on that Sunday on Fox & Friends, and that Friday on The Faulkner Focus. That week the network also aired the Fox Nation "Patriot Awards" show, where Logan was a presenter.

The previous week, Logan was on with Trey Gowdy, Sean Hannity, Fox & Friends, Fox News Primetime, The Five, and America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino, where she spoke with Sandra Smith about terror and promoted her special on Fox Nation. So she regularly appears both on the network’s opinion shows and the dayside news programs.

While Lara Logan is neither a contributor nor host on Fox News Channel, like many Fox Nation personalities she is on the network a lot. Or rather, she usually is. She wasn’t in the days following the Mengele comments.

#1 She isn't wrong, therefore she must be silenced.

#2 Like Dr Angelique Coetzee who said her patients have extremely mild cases of Omicro, Logan is an evil, white South African who must not be believed. The crisis and fear must continue.

#4 It's stupid to use over the top nazi rhetoric when legitimate criticisms can be made. It's one of the many reasons people consider Fox as controlled opposition.

#10 Why hasn’t anyone, I’m looking at you Fox News, ever mentioned the finances of the vaccines and the useless drug Fauxi promoted?
The little gremlin is getting rich blocking low cost generic cures for this virus and he and the dark lords at WHO are killing thousands
He’s a nasty self serving sociopath and an advocate for killing the entire planet in the name of science
Gain of function research is as we’ve seen very dangerous and should be banned

#11 Lifelong Self-Promoting Lying Piece of Shit works for me.

When AIDS spread among gay men and intravenous drug users four decades ago, it became conventional wisdom that the plague would soon devastate the rest of the American population. In 1987, Oprah Winfrey opened her show by announcing, “Research studies now project that 1 in 5—listen to me, hard to believe—1 in 5 heterosexuals could be dead of AIDS in the next three years.” The prediction was outlandishly wrong, but she wasn’t wrong in attributing the scare to scientists.

One early alarmist was Anthony Fauci, who made national news in 1983 with an editorial in the Journal of the American Medical Association warning that AIDS could infect even children because of “the possibility that routine close contact, as within a family household, can spread the disease.”

After criticism that he had inspired a wave of hysterical homophobia, Dr. Fauci (who in 1984 began his current job, as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases), promptly pivoted 180 degrees, declaring less than two months after his piece appeared that it was “absolutely preposterous” to suggest AIDS could be spread by normal social contact. But other supposed experts went on warning erroneously that AIDS could spread widely via toilet seats, mosquito bites and kissing.

#13 Its frightening what fraud Fauci has perpetuated. The comparisons to Mengele are apt.

#15 Fox died honestly long before election night 2020. Too many liberal critters infesting it.

#16 Here is what she actually said, “What you see on Dr. Fauci — this is what people say to me: that he doesn’t represent science to them. He represents Josef Mengele,” she said. “Dr. Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor who did experiments on Jews during the Second World War and in the concentration camps. And I am talking about people all across the world are saying this, because the response from covid, what it has done to countries everywhere, what it has done to civil liberties, the suicide rates, the poverty, it has obliterated economies."

#17 ^ It's a variation on Godwin's Law. She muddled her point as soon as she made the association.
