Fox mentioned ivermectin nearly 300 times, then ignored new study finding the drug is ineffective against COVID-19 | Media Matters for America

Reckless  and criminally irresponsible Fox news sends a message of death.

Fox News has mentioned the anti-parasite drug ivermectin at least 292 times since December 2020, according to a Media Matters review. The network’s relentless hyping of the drug as a COVID-19 treatment was irresponsible at the time and has aged terribly — a major study released last month found ivermectin is not effective. But Fox has hidden those results from its viewers, not mentioning that study on the air a single time to date.
