Does this feel a little out of the blue to you with them making this forceful of an announcement at what is typically the Coronavirus update?Trump just declared war on drugs coming from our southern border. President Trump triggers enhanced counter narcotic operations, involving the Navy, combat ships and Coast Guard cutters
We all know it’s small in the scheme of things. Just hate to see kids miss out on things they’ve looked forward to.
To a certain extent I get what you are saying...but the national media should hold itself to a higher standard. Some of this reporting is just shy of National Enquirer tactics to report the facts. For instance, just say Florida testing results in 7,000 more confirmed cases. Why say it as "Florida cases surge by 7,000"? Why use Italy footage for NY hospital reporting (I don't buy the editing mistake, or the apology if they woudln't have been caught)? Why report 200K will die, with no context on timelines, assumptions, model limitations, etc?
It would be easier to take them seriously if they took the net ratings/revenue bump they are getting from this and donated it to relief funds or research. Otherwise, just the facts without the grandstanding should be the standard.
The Doctor in NY I find a little hard to believe, he's saying he's treated almost 900 people if I'm not mistaken. A few things hereSerious question: Has anyone heard any updates on whether the anti-malaria cocktail is having good continued success? I know there was the preliminary study out of France saying it worked well and there's the Hasidic doctor in Brooklyn who is anecdotally touting good results. Just wondering if we have any more studies out yet.
The Italy footage was a mistake. They have admitted that. If you think it was intentional I'd want to know the basis.
As to the phraseology, sure, but that's my point. They are going to use language which gets people.to watch. Not ideal. But experience shows that the American people don't watch PBS news.

1. Where did he get access to enough meds for 900 people when Cuomo put a hold on it.
2. Were these patients truly sick with coronavirus
3. Isn't he working out of a shopping mall?
I hope this med combo is working but I just have a hard time believing the Doctor in NY.
Biden: States Should Prepare for Remote Voting in 2020 Elections
Do you honestly believe it was an honest mistake?
Yeah, that's the one. All of his claims seem very odd and I just don't trust it. I also don't trust any reports coming out of China about their miracle flu drug that cures the rona in 4 days. I'm hopeful some real information will come out soon and give everyone hope.If it's the same one I saw on tv the other day, on Fox I believe, he seems a little sketchy.
