Recently, the radio talk-show host — who had successfully sued the state over mask mandates and capacity limits in Colorado churches last year — joined a chorus of conservative voices who have bashed the coronavirus vaccine and vowed to stay unvaccinated.
“While it is not inherently sinful to take an immorally-developed†vaccine, he wrote on his website last month, Enyart urged people to “boycott†the vaccines “to further increase social tension and put pressure on the child killers.â€.But weeks after he and his wife, Cheryl, tested positive for the virus after being unvaccinated, Enyart died of covid-19, his radio co-host announced Monday.Messages left for Williams, KMOV, the radio station that airs their show, and Denver Bible Church, where Bob Enyart was pastor since 2000, were not immediately returned.Enyart is at least the fifth conservative radio talk-show host to have died of covid-19 in the last six weeks after speaking out against vaccinations and masking.Four conservative radio talk-show hosts bashed coronavirus vaccines.The Denver host’s comments are another example of talk radio being an often overlooked space for coronavirus misinformation.He designed software for Army helicopters and worked as a computer analyst for Microsoft before pivoting to the church and talk radio, according to a biography on his website.
Williams, who wrote that he has been the radio program’s co-host for 15 years and done more than 750 shows, described Enyart as “exceedingly kind and humble, and always, always willing to listen and discuss anything you wanted.†When he was asked by KUSA for some thoughts on his best friend and mentor, Williams indicated that Enyart wouldn’t have changed course from his beliefs.An unvaccinated radio host is sick with covid
