No. But that was a nice rendition of the bullshit scapegoating of the media
For our problems. This is a local outlet in ND so maybe you can include them among your outlets to demonize next time. Google “el paso icu patients airlifted” to find the many stories about non-Covid ICU patients being airlifted to other cities because their Covid surge is overwhelming them - you’ll find a whole mess of media outlets to add to your naughty list there. Pretty soon, you can add all of them this side of OAN and really see only what you want to see.
See, nobody denies that older people are much more vulnerable than young people. That comorbidities make people much more vulnerable to bad outcomes, or that older with comorbidities is more dangerous than younger with comorbidities. Not even CNN and the NYT.
But all outlets, including those you still have to add to your naughty list, talk about the way community spread works to create the crushing blow to our HC systems nationwide, and to the increase in mortality that always follows these spikes in cases and hospitalizations, because community spread does its thing, leading the bug to vulnerable populations.
But yeah, for god’s sake don’t put on a mask. Demonizing the media is so much more fun. [Post edited by hoolstoptheheels at 11/22/2020 12:02PM]
