Daily Shows Desi Lydic roasts Fox News response to Anthony Faucis diary

"Daily Show" host Desi Lydic has mocked Fox News' response to Anthony Fauci's Covid diary.

Former chief medical advisor Anthony Fauci's diary from the time of Covid has been made available to the press, and Daily Show host Desi Lydic is just as outraged by his entries as the people on Fox News.

"This guy is completely obsessed with himself," Lydic says. "I bet he'd put his name on random buildings if you let him. I mean, who writes a diary about themselves? What a lunatic."

Lydic goes on to play clips of various Fox News hosts contradicting each other over why exactly they're so angry with Fauci.

"It couldn't be clearer," says Lydic. "Covid killed a million Americans and also wasn't really that deadly, so we shouldn't have shut down. Remember, Fauci made this fatal virus in a lab, but he did a bad job because the virus wasn't even that fatal. Fauci's real crime is being a shitty deadly virus maker."
