Can you see from the expression "One saved lives and the other resulted in more deaths" which saved lives? Sean Hannity’s news show Hannity or Tucker Carlson’s Tucker Carlson Tonight? Is it randomly assigned and it can't be identified simply based onn the limited quotation below?


====================
Two Conservative Icons Gave Opposite Advice on COVID-19. Those Misinformed Died in Higher Numbers, New Study Reports.
The news sources that you consume can kill you - or save you. That’s the fundamental insight of a powerful new study about the impact of watching either Sean Hannity’s news show Hannity or Tucker Carlson’s Tucker Carlson Tonight. One saved lives and the other resulted in more deaths, due to how each host covered COVID-19.

The headline tells us two ways that regularly watching one of two opinion programs affected viewers. You have to read the story to find out which was which.

You need to read the article to find out.
And I recommend that you do. The study it cites found that the population of viewers who watched the minimizing host's show in late February had an 11% higher rate of death from COVID-19.
