Many staff members and reporters at the network have been very outspoken critics of mandates.
According to a report from Mediaite, Newsmax cited the implementation of COVID rules by Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) as their excuse for caving in.
“To ensure that we are in compliance, we require that all vaccinated employees submit a copy of their vaccination card,” the email, obtained by Mediaite, informed staff.
Newsmax host Steve Cortes ranted against mandates on Thursday’s episode of his show, the same day that they were notified about the new requirements at the network.
“There is zero, and I mean zero, moral or ethical obligation for anyone to be compelled to get vaccinated,” Cortes said. He added that mandates are “insane workplace discrimination.”
Employees at the network have until Jan. 4, 2022 to be fully vaccinated, or else they will be required to take a weekly COVID test.
disappointing this is.
gonna drop the “Conservative” then?
You have to be freaking kidding me! Another one bites the dust!
Weekly testing will be fine, folks.
They pay their taxes too, or else face government action.
Same with OSHA. Either follow the regulation or risk government action.
Companies like to be told what to do. It makes things predictable.
The weekly test will become daily tests.
Hypocrites. There’s no one to trust anymore all of them are backstabbing anti-American asses! Been speaking up A good game of against vaccinations and here they are hypocrisy. That will give the network a blackeye for sure with conservatives. A lot of hot air a lot of words but they don’t back it up with her actions. So sad!
Another RINO network.Trump should start his own news station and bring the MaX people over.
Christopher Ruddy gave YOOGE money to the Clintons. He’s a fraud.
Fk him and his fakery.
The signs have been there for some time that Newsmax is deep state . . .
The “mandate” and the fines were designed to hit conservatives and to force them to choose between their job and their conscience.
The bidenites have the power, but not the right, to impose those fines. You can try to fight them if you have the money. The government has infinite resources (our money) and it can litigate, delay, and counterattack. If you win they will get you some other way.
I wish Newsmax were able to fight this. Elections have consequences. The Constitution didn’t foresee that the constitutional republic would become a fascist dictatorship.
You vill be crushed. Ve are just starting...
I guess they didn’t really like thier new found success after everyone dumped FOX
Chris Ruddy is a Clinton friend.
People dumped Fox? When did that happen?
Yes, VERY disappointing.
Sadly, NEWSMAX is run by a HILLIARY LOVER AND DONOR!!
I DO LOVE NEWSMAX THOUGH!
