On Tuesday, Just the News<\/a> posted an article about a recent hire at Fox News.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Fox News has hired a former aide of Andrew Cuomo who admitted to covering up deaths at nursing homes in New York state during the COVID pandemic.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Melissa DeRosa will be a contributor and co-host of a new podcast, “The Girls,” set to air beginning Oct. 1., according to a Fox News Media press release<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

DeRosa worked for Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration. She admitted on a conference call with Democratic lawmakers that the Cuomo administration hid the number of deaths at nursing homes, fearing it would be politicized by Cuomo’s political opponents, including President Donald Trump, the Daily Caller reported<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was not just some casual cover-up–this was a cover-up that had to do with the life and death of the people involved. For whatever reason, Governor Cuomo has never been held responsible for the deaths that resulted in moving people supposedly recovered from Covid into nursing homes. We also remember that Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Rachel Levine faced scrutiny when she moved her mother out of a personal care facility shortly after she implemented a policy directing Pennsylvania\u2019s nursing homes and certain care facilities to admit recovered COVID-19 patients<\/a> who were treated at nearby hospitals. It seems that the people in power were aware of the danger. There was very little information concerning the point where a person who had had Covid was no longer contagious, and extreme caution would have been appropriate.<\/p>\n

I question the wisdom of hiring someone to co-host a podcast who has a history of hiding important information from the media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
