Your own media on Coronavirus 19. Watch if you doubt me

Yeah. Exactly.



No, as your responses and denials clearly demonstrate, you look for "alternate" facts designed to give your preconceptions of a world-view that has been shaped by radical propaganda. And when shown the facts of that radial propaganda you slither away. I just showed you where your radical right-wing propaganda clearly lied to you about a legitimate unbiased source, and your response is...whatever. What a joke. Go ahead and keep clinging to that radical right-wing opinion passed off as fact.

You showed me a very poorly constructed website (I did far better on mine all by myself) by a left wing blogger purporting to rate news sites on an unbiased basis. This lady patent attorney or whatever the hell it is she does has zero qualifications to rate websites. It would be like YOU drawing some colorful chart and claiming it is an unbiased representation of "news" sites and putting MSNBS in the center. People would laugh and guffaw at it and rightfully so.

Subjective biased opinions do not count as facts. Just because someone has a website (and a bad one at that) doesn't mean they have a firm grasp on facts. CNN has one and they are out to lunch and come to think of it, their site really sucks big time. You'd think a billionaire could pay for a better site.
 
Ha! Yeah, why would anybody ignore a timeline as produced by a re-election campaign. No wonder you people are lost. You actually can't tell the difference at all between that which is spun and that which is just plain fact.

You think a patent attorney is some sort of authority on which news stations are biased. I thought you were able to submit some sort of detailed analysis by independent researchers from the two parties that were debated and hashed out and agreed to and after input from the public. Sadly, we got a blogger's colorful chart instead.
 
HAHAHA. That's so funny. You are using "you Leftist" as an insult but you don't realize that every Republican and Trump supporter is now a Leftist:

Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act - Wikipedia

How cute.

No not really. This aid package, ad least the GOP side of it, is designed to save companies that provide jobs and help workers until they can get back to work. A Leftist program like this would be just giving out what are basically welfare checks in such a way to keep us dependent on the Govt.

FALSE.

If companies use the PPP has intended, to pay their workers, the loan can be forgiven, thereby converting it to a grant. That's essentially welfare for businesses.

It's a leftist program. It's just that the main beneficiary of this leftist program are companies and businesses, not workers.

People need money to buy things. So those workers have something to do.
 
You spew kkk rhetoric. I have not called you anything. You call people all kinds of things.

I definitely do not. Unlike yourself, I do not recognize KKK rhetoric. I never knew of any of them. I call out Abe Lincoln and that makes you furious, despite him and me in the same party and you in the opposite.

My grandson said instead of $450 per week for his unemployment, now he will get $1,050. He is looking forward to the money. He says, why work?

Imagine we had a patent attorney passing judgement on the media. They would laugh just as much. We easily can assume she is a Democrat.

I blame Trump for not listening to American Medical Experts. I blame Trump for downplaying their warnings. I blame Trump for mocking them and acting like he knew better. That is where I blame Trump.

He listened. They were not warning. And Trump never mocked the experts.
 
My grandson said instead of $450 per week for his unemployment, now he will get $1,050. He is looking forward to the money. He says, why work?

And? What does that have to do with what I wrote?
 
Dr Fauci and Dr Blix defended Trump telling that SOB Jim Acosta that the medical professionals had no clue the virus would hit America and so hard. Trump listened to them. You do not alarm the nation based on a hunch.

Take what serious? Even the Democrats own press did not take it serious?

Actually , the professionals were aware in mid January that the US was facing a pandemic. But trying to get the White House to listen and take the virus as a serious threat was like “ screaming into a void.”

From the following article :

As some members of the team worked around the clock on their response and looked at models showing dire outcomes for the United States if stringent public health measures were not put in place, some felt they were screaming into a void: Based on what they were learning about the virus, things were going to get bad. Really bad. The U.S. needed to act aggressively.

The White House’s initial response was handled by the Counterproliferation and Biodefense directorate within the NSC — the so-called WMD unit, which had assumed responsibility for coordinating the administration’s response to a pandemic after a reorganization earlier in Trump’s term.
Officials in the WMD unit pored over reports out of China about the virus. But much remained unknown. After China officially reported its first death from the virus on Jan. 11, a small policy committee within the NSC began meeting almost daily, according to an internal schedule of the response and meetings reviewed by Politico. From mid-January to early March, more than 50 meetings and calls with NSC committees and the coronavirus task force were held.

Conservative means squat with no definition. Calling them Democrats is no definition.

As to history, you can't top my knowledge. No fecking way. What you said is ancient history and some of it true.

I myself call out Abe Lincoln for his running all over the USA imposing his personal martial law. And why the hell he could not make a deal with the South baffles the hell 0ut of me. And if he said to save the union, that my friend is conservative. He fought so called Liberals called Democrats.

"You can't top my knowledge". What is this, a 12 year-old's pissing contest response?
 
I authored the OP with proof the Democrats own press took this as a joke.

They were still more interested in the impeaching nasty habit by the Democrats.

So you have nothing at all to refute me. That is why you attacked me.

Actually, it was the conservative media site Fox News that downplayed the Coronavirus .

From This Forbes article:


A collective of 74 media experts, including the chair of Columbia Journalism School and Pulitzer Prize winner Frances FitzGerald, wrote a letter to Fox executives Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan lambasting Fox News’ coverage of the coronavirus pandemic.*
“Viewers of Fox News, including the president of the United States, have been regularly subjected to misinformation,” the statement says, including attempts to downplay the severity of the virus

and “recommendations of untested drugs.”

The note praises some Fox journalists for their “solid reporting.” It adds, however, that “Fox News does not clearly distinguish between the authority that should accrue to trained experts, on the one hand, and the authority viewers grant to pundits and politicians for reasons of ideological loyalty.”

....

Coverage of the pandemic on Fox News has often dovetailed with statements from the president, who initially argued that the COVID-19 virus was not a serious threat. On March 9, for instance, he tweeted that “last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu…. At this moment there are 546 cases of CoronVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!” (The White House now says it expects 100,000 to 240,000 people to die from the coronavirus, despite extreme efforts to control its spread.)*


On the same day as Trump’s tweet, Fox star Sean Hannity said on his program that “we are scaring people unnecessarily.” He called the fervor an attempt to “bludgeon Trump with this new hoax.”
His comments mirrored those of Fox host Trish Regan, who said on March 9 that, “This is yet another attempt to impeach the president.” Regan left the network last week.
A spokesperson for the network did not immediately respond to a request for comment.


Misinformation is not just affecting average television viewers. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp claimed on Wednesday that he only just learned that the virus can be transmitted by people without symptoms, a fact that has circulated widely in the mainstream press for weeks. Governor Kemp had resisted calls to issue a stay-at-home order for Georgians; on Wednesday he finally reversed course.*

What was his pay grade before he became unemployed ?

Was he only earning minimum wage of $7.25?

Maybe you do not understand how congress decided on the $ 1200 amount.

They took the minimum wage of $7.25 and multiplied it by 40 hours for full time employed.

That figure came to $1,160. Then they rounded it Up to $1,200.

People will most likely still be taxed on that amount as if it were regular working income.

This is the bio of the guy who wrote this report and there is no list of names of the allehed "experts". If they were, why did they not assail MSNBC and CNN and others who downplayed this?

I've been a reporter at Forbes since 2016. Before that, I spent a year on the road—driving for Uber in Cleveland, volcano climbing in Guatemala, cattle farming in…

3 years as a reporter and before that an Uber driver.

Oh, fun. Now lets see them do the same with the other media that was downplaying the coronavirus and claiming things like racism against the Chinese was a bigger threat and this was no worse then the flu.

He said his company pays him $20 per hour. And his wife has also been sent home. She was handling computers for the YMCA.

I saw no video proof from you yet My OP gives a lot of video proof the Democrats media played this down. FOX actually was giving an alarm.

The media commonly attacks FOX due to it not being hard core Democrats based reporting.

Proof you are being told a fake story is that nobody here can cite even one Democrat politician interested in the virus for the entire month of January and their left wing media talked it down. I showed plenty of video proof. The Democrat ran media got interested around March 10 and later on.

Trump clearly was on top of this very early. Imagine the huge roar from the Democrats shen he blockaded China from our country. Democrats were furious. Angry does not come close to describing them.
 
He said his company pays him $20 per hour. And his wife has also been sent home. She was handling computers for the YMCA.

Now he is going to Paid $7.25 an hour to stay home instead of working and earning $20 hour.

When he realizesthat by working he can earn almost 3 the amount he might change his mind.

I didn’t hear anyone complain when he stopped flights flights to and from China and Iran because of the virus.

In fact I praised him.

I have some medical knowledge and know the best way to contain a virus from spreading is to confine people from carrying to other regions.
