Fox News Implements Vaccine Passports For Employees After Hosts Spread Fear About Them

Fox Corporation has quietly implemented vaccine passports, known as the FOX Clear Pass, despite its top news personalities including Tucker Carlson comparing the concept to “Jim Crow” laws.

Fox News sent out an email to employees in early June, stating that Fox had developed a “secure, voluntary way for employees to self-attest their vaccination status.”

Employees can upload information about their vaccination date/type to the system.

The company told employees that “providing this information to Fox will assist the company with space planning and contact tracing.”

Employees who reported their vaccination status received a follow-up email, which notified them that they would no longer have to complete daily health screenings: “Thank you for providing Fox with your vaccination information. You no longer are required to complete your daily health screening through WorkCare/WorkMatters.”
