Antivax founder of major Christian TV network dies of Covid-19
https://www.rt.com/usa/541852-antivax-founder-christian-covid/
The prominent televangelist and founder of vaccine-skeptical Daystar
Television Network, Marcus Lamb, has died of coronavirus complications.
Oh, just /imagine/ the griefof the poor, poor Lamb family <sniffle>.
There is no guarantee Marcus would not have died of COVID-19 had he been vaccinated, but the likelihood of it is certainly far lower. It is fair to say
that Marcus did not do everything *reasonable* within his power to remain with
his family for many more years. How utterly *selfish* of Marcus!
And what a dope.
And what an adulterer/fornicator and crook as well:
The Daystar Television Network (commonly referred to as Daystar Television,
often shortened to Daystar) is an American evangelical Christian-based
religious television network owned by the Word of God Fellowship, founded by
Marcus Lamb in 1993. Daystar is headquartered in the Dallas/Fort Worth
Metroplex in Bedford, Texas.[1] The Network is based around prosperity
theology.
[...]
In 2003, Daystar was investigated by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), centering on allegations that Daystar sold air time on its non-
commercial educational stations to for-profit groups.
[...]
On November 30, 2010, Marcus Lamb appeared on Celebration and admitted to
having had an extramarital affair several years before,[13] telling viewers
that unidentified individuals had attempted to extort money from him over the
incident. He said that he had since reconciled with Joni over the matter
[...]
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Daystar applied for a Paycheck Protection
Program loan to help pay employees’ salaries. They received $3.9 million. Two
weeks later, Daystar purchased a luxury 1997 Gulfstream V jet. Inside Edition
published an investigative report questioning if the organization had used
the PPP loan to purchase the private jet. After that report, Daystar
reportedly paid back the loan with interest.

Has there *ever* been a "Christian" [sic] televangelist who wasn't also an adulterer and fornicator and crook? I don't believe there has been.
I can't find any figures on this flim-flam operation's audience size, but with the number of idiot right-wingnut credulous knuckle-draggers and suckers in this
country, I have to imagine it was pretty big. That means this shitbag was preaching his anti-vaxx bullshit to a lot of people. I wouldn't celebrate the death from COVID-19 of some run-of-the-mill anti-vaxx goof — mockery, maybe —
but this shitbag was pushing that bullshit on a lot of people. That's like encouraging people to use massive doses of illegal fentanyl. Would you celebrate the death of drug pusher who caused thousands of millions of drug overdose deaths? I know I sure would, and so should you. This shitbag was just
as bad.
Look at this bullshit:
It’s with a heavy heart we announce that Marcus Lamb, president and founder
of Daystar Television Network, went home to be with the Lord this morning.
The family asks that their privacy be respected as they grieve this difficult
loss. Please continue to lift them up in prayer.

"Went home to be with the Lord" — HA HA HA HA HA! What he did is to go rejoin
the other stupid fucking right-wingnut dumb-fucks.
Picture there shows him with the "lovely" [sic] Joni. She has "dumb bitch televangelist's wife" written all over her. I wonder if she's gotten the vaccine yet?
This just keeps getting better and better:
"Televangelist Marcus Lamb Who Called Vaccine Mandate 'Sin' Against God Dies
Of COVID"
Marcus Lamb, a televangelist and founder of Daystar Television Network, has
reportedly died of COVID-19 after maligning vaccines and allegedly taking
ivermectin to prevent infection. [of *course* he gobbled ivermectin!]
Daystar Television confirmed Lamb's death on Tuesday, although the network's
announcement didn't mention a cause of death. However, Marcus' wife, Joni
Lamb, confirmed her husband died from COVID-19, saying that he had been
hospitalized after his oxygen dropped and alternative treatments proved
ineffective.
Lamb, according to Joni Lamb, was diabetic, which made him a high risk for
becoming seriously ill from COVID-19 and the 64-year-old was just on the cusp
of being considered high risk because of his age.
* co-morbidity — check
* high risk due to age — check
* "alternative treatments" — check
I checked out sorryantivaxxer.com, and sure enough, he's already on it:
Marcus Lamb, 64, Dallas, TX, Televangelist, anti-vaxxer and anti-vaxx
promoter, dead from COVID.
UPDATE (11/30/21): Marcus has succumbed to COVID. See Below.
Original Post (11/14/21):
According to social media posts (below), Marcus is in the ICU with COVID.
This is significant because Marcus is responsible for promoting and spreading
more anti-vaxx and pro-alternative treatment disinformation to more people
than anyone on sorry-anti-vaxxer so far. In fact, he's claimed that he and
his wife Joni have been taking Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, and vitamins
and minerals as a preventative. Apparently that didn't work out for him.
Marcus and Joni own Daystar Television Network the second largest Christian
Network in the World behind CBN. Throughout the pandemic, they have been
hosting and promoting the most notorious anti-vaxxers in the world, many of
whom are members of the despicable American Frontline Doctors which is being
investigated by Congress for fraudulent practices and spreading
misinformation. Marcus and Joni's guests on Daystar have been the likes of
RFK, jr., Dr. Sherri Tenpenny (she told lawmakers that vaccines magnetize
people), Dr. Lee Merritt, Dr. Simone Gold (founder of AFLD, and arrested
during the Jan 6 attack on the Capital), Del Bigtree (CEO of antivaxx
network), Dr. Rashid Buttar (who has claimed all vaccinated would be dead by
2025). You can see all of these performances at
https://vaccines.daystar.com
or you can stick with me here and I'll show you the one that is the most
revealing and infuriating.
Rather than post some quotes or screenshots of tweets, I think the best thing
to do is to see Marcus and Joni in action hosting Dr. Ryan Cole, the owner of
Cole Diagnostics, a company which conveniently enough offers COVID testing.
He's a fountain of disinformation, and obviously and intentionally
misrepresenting statistics. The following interview is a scripted tsunami of
disinformation pretending to be an interview. They touch on every single
anti-vaxx argument we've seen on this site over the past four months. Why
Doctors like Ryan Cole haven't been stripped of their medical licenses over
this kind of performance is a testament that something has to change. These
Christian grifters and these MD quacks are causing countless amounts of
suffering and death.

Celebrating this shitbag's death is morally equivalent to the celebration any right-thinking person would have experienced upon learning of the successful assassination of Stalin, Hitler, Fidel Castro, Mao Zedong or Pol Pot.
His death was announced by the network, which describes itself as one of the >> two largest Christian television broadcasters in the world, on November 30. >>
A week before Lamb’s death his wife Joni confirmed that he had been
hospitalized with Covid pneumonia, with their son Jonathan citing a
“/spiritual attack from the enemy/.”
“/As much as my parents have gone on here to kind of inform everyone about >> everything going on to the pandemic and some of the ways to treat Covid – >> there’s no doubt that the enemy is not happy about that/,” Jonathan Lamb said
during the broadcast on November 23.

Diabetes made the 64-year-old unvaccinated father of three especially
vulnerable to the disease.
Texas-based Daystar, founded by Lamb in the early 1980s and reaching 2 billion
viewers, campaigned against lockdowns, vaccination, and vaccine mandates
throughout the pandemic, with numerous programs “/exposing truths/” about
vaccines and featuring a number of well-known ‘Covid-dissidents,’ including
Robert Kennedy Jr.
In a lawsuit Daystar filed together with the American Family Association, the
vaccine mandate was labeled as a “/sin against God’s Holy Word/.”
The news about Lamb’s death was followed by a stream of jubilation.
“/Marcus is now in the presence of The Great Devil Satan. He had preached >> about heaven, taught about heaven, and now he is experiencing Hades/,” the >> president of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association,
Franklin Graham, wrote on Twitter.
