Pic Of The Moment: So Let Me Get This Straight

Fox News mandates employees disclose vaccination status, contradicting rhetoric from top stars.
Let the private muttering from Laura and Tucker begin; 'we work for f'ing Nazis!!'
The right-wing channel Fox News, whose top personalities have for months assailed the concept of vaccine passports and argued that asking about vaccine status amounts to a major intrusion of privacy, told employees this week that they must disclose their vaccination status to the company.
In a Tuesday memo updating staff on Covid-19 procedures, Fox News Media chief executive Suzanne Scott said that the company has "asked all employees — whether on site as part of our essential workforce or working remotely — to upload their vaccination status" into an internal database.
"All employees must enter their status no later than today, August 17th, by close of business," Scott wrote, bolding that particular sentence in her email, which was obtained by CNN Business, but first reported on by AdWeek.
Scott added the company is "requiring employees to wear a mask in small, confined spaces with limited opportunities for social distancing and where there are multiple employees, including control rooms."
The mandatory reporting of vaccine status flies in the face of the commentary from the network's top stars.
Fox News has spent months portraying the notion that asking people to show vaccination status is anti-American and a threat to personal freedom.
It's not the first time that Fox has been so brazenly hypocritical about coronavirus precautions.
While its television hosts railed against face masks, for instance, the company issued guidance recommending employees wear them.
