It’s hard to fathom, but the old virus warnings are being trotted out large scale in the media. For months the media led a fear campaign against reopening the economy. Reopening was a move towards death, or so we were told. We all had to hide in our homes or so we were told. Anyone who wanted to reopen was the moral equivalent of an axe murderer or so we were told.
Next came the riots and protests. The people gathered in crowds for hours with no masks and no social distancing. To the media, that was fine. They forgot about the virus.
Now we’re seeing upticks in cases in some states. The media doesn’t blame it on the protest crowds even though the timing is perfect. Nope. The media is back blaming a too quick reopening
It’s really hard to hear the new media narrative without laughing.
