The funny thing is that so many conservatives have stopped watching Fox News, especially after election night. “Tucker Carlson Tonight” and “The Five” still draw huge numbers, but a lot of liberals and conservatives have something in common now: hating on Fox News. OANN and Newsmax TV are the new Fox News, but a lot of progressives don’t know that yet. Jo asked this week on Twitter who was with her on walking out of any business that had Fox News playing on the TV, and she found a follower in Jerry Brown, who told his story:
If I ever walk into a business and Fox News was playing on TV, I am walking the f*ck out.
Would you join me?

I was in the hospital awhile ago. Was watching MSNBC when the surgeon come in and switched my TV to Fox news. I told her we weren't going to have any conversation until she switched back to my channel. I asked for a different doctor and filed a formal complaint.

I was there I saw the whole thing. Right after that, the doctor proclaimed "This is a MAGA Hospital"

So very brave!
Out of curiosity, how’d the transition go?

I’ll take things that didn’t happen Alex

This totally happened, bro.

I've worked in a hospital. This does not happen. Go away.

My doctor came in to perform an emergency appendectomy on me but she turned the TV to a soap opera in Spanish and started yelling at the husband who’d been unfaithful and I died.

Not a single word of this is even remotely how hospitals work.

For starters, doctors don’t change channels.

That didn’t happen so much so that other things that did happen ended up not happening.

I miss the days when my surgeons hung out in my room and watched tv with me 🤡

So how did the lobotomy go?

Brown insists the incident was all too real:
I see that the MAGA's came out in force. I'm a retired doctor. I was in for tests and exploring options available to me. The events described did happen. The results were not made known. The actions of the Surgeon were unacceptable. The TV was muted. Interns present. I fired her.
— Jerry (@JerryBrown) July 22, 2022
If interns were present, maybe they could chime in and help back up this story. The thing is, if it really did happen as Brown describes, that’s even pettier than making up a story about it.
