Media Feverish About Trump’s Covid-19 Briefings

Victory Girls  "It should come as no surprise that the media has a huge problem with President Trump. Most of the MSM did all it could to make sure Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election and has spent the last 3-plus years doing everything possible to drive Trump from office. At a time when politics should not play a role in their reporting, members of the media continue to put their personal animus against the president ahead of their job to inform the public about Covid-19. Two of the worst have been the New York Times and CNN."
"Our country, in fact the entire world, is caught up in the Covid-19 panic. This is a time when we should be getting information, not propaganda. This is a time when we need to hear our what the president and those advising him have to say about the current situation. Yet we have media mavens (at least in their own minds) urging their networks not to cover the prepared statement portion of Trump’s daily briefings. Yes, I’m talking about Chris Hayes (MSNBC) and Don Lemon (CNN).
"I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that CNN did exactly that. When time came for the president’s Tuesday briefing, CNN didn’t cut away. At least not for the prepared portion of the briefing. In fact, it didn’t go to the briefing until Trump was wrapping up his comments before turning the mic over to Dr. Deborah Birx.
"At a time when the media is beating the “this is the end of the world as we know it” drum, CNN chose not to let Americans hear what our president had to say. They hate the man that much, they are willing to do anything to keep the rest of us from knowing what he has to say on what is probably the most important topic of the day, the week, the month and possibly even the year.
"You know it’s bad when Australian media picks up on it." . . .
