A trio of conservative radio hosts died of Covid. Will their deaths change vaccine resistance?

First it was Dick Farrel. Then Phil Valentine. Most recently, Marc Bernier. Just within the past month, those three conservative radio hosts — all unvaccinated critics of inoculation efforts — died after contracting Covid.

Will their deaths help sway any minds of unvaccinated listeners or the broader segment of conservatives resistant to the shots? Some fellow personalities think so — although the optimism is limited.

"There's no question when somebody like Phil Valentine, when you read that he has it and then three weeks later he's dead, it will get your attention," said John Fredericks, a pro-Trump conservative radio personality who said he is vaccinated.

Nearly nine months into the inoculation campaign, the political divide over Covid vaccinations is still gaping. But conservative media counterparts see a chance to soften some resistance on the right after trusted messengers who have mocked the shots or otherwise encouraged audiences to resist efforts to get them vaccinated have died.

1. Won't change a thing. Their decision to not get

the vaccine isn’t fact based. Besides how do they know they died of covid? Maybe it’s just the liberal MSM lying to them, again. Who knows? Seriously, they are hopeless.

2. It may change a few minds, but not very many.

Logic, reason, and even deaths by Covid don't have much impact on these folks. They'll always find another ridiculous reason not to get vaccinated.
As Ron White says, "You can't fix stupid".

3. No. Because most people never heard of them before they died.

5. Not even a little bit

I still remember listening to a grandmother, who 6 year old grandson was just shot and died, say, "That's the price of freedom ( or second amendment). Between that and the governor saying, " We here in the deep south know we're going to heaven, so we're not afraid to die", there is no reasoning with these idiots They are a cult of death, willing to sacrifice their family members for 45 and the publican party.

6. Nope. It's all going to get wrapped in a giant "it's the libruls fault" conspiracy theory.

7. They hit the nail on the head

There is too much money to be made from stupid ignorant people who listen to them so no, it won't change anything except some of the radio deejays will go and get vaccinated in secret.

This is criminal activity, not free speech.
