‘Fox & Friends’ Savages ‘Weak Weasel’ Zuckerberg After His MAGA Overtures
Hosts of Fox News’ flagship panel show held nothing back in eviscerating Mark Zuckerberg on Saturday morning over his hamfisted overtures to MAGA World in recent days.
Raising the issue on Fox & Friends, host Will Cain noted the Meta CEO had recently spoken during an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast about how the Biden administration apparently attempted to pressure Facebook into removing content about the potential side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine.
In a clip from that interview, Zuckerberg revealed, “They pushed us super hard, to take down things that were honestly true. They basically pushed us and said anything that says that vaccines might have side-effects, you basically need to take down. I was just like, we’re not going to do that, we’re clearly not going to do that.”
Co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy was quick to swing in with her take. “But he did, and he’s a weasel,” she said.
Campos-Duffy then went on, “This guy was weak. Do you remember when people were talking about him being presidential timber, like he could run for president? This guy, he’s so brilliant. He’s weak, and it’s only now that all the tide has turned, that he feels safe to say what he cooperated with the government to do, which was to censor you, and stifle your first American right.”
Taking up the baton, co-host Charles Hurt joined in with the bludgeoning. “He’s crying like a little baby on a podcast because he got cursed at by somebody in the administration?” he said.
Campos-Duffy then chimed in again, “‘Oh, my staff got yelled at’,” she said in a baby voice, referencing Zuckerberg’s claims that Meta employees had been insulted by members of the Biden administration during their communications. “And you didn’t stand up for them?” she added.
Cain was of the same view. “I think you’re right. He’s weak, he’s now bending to the new direction of the wind.”
Since Donald Trump’s election win, the Meta chief has been among a growing number of tech titans bending the knee to Trump. The billionaire tech founder dined with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in November and later donated $1 million to the president-elect’s inauguration. And then earlier this week, he announced Dana White, a Trump ally, would join the Meta board.
