Media bias? H1N1 v Covid-19

I'm mostly just feeling sorry for you trying so hard and being so obvious.

It was a good effort though.

 

Another swing and a miss.

 

Obvious troll is obvious. Don't feed her.

 

This concerns the President we have now, not the one we had over three years ago. CNN has a liberal bias! Golly gee, I didn't know that.

Trump consistently uses half measures.

Trump announced recently he was invoking the Defense Production Act, which was established in 1950 in response to production needs during war. That same day, "I only signed the Defense Production Act to combat the Chinese Virus should we need to invoke it in a worst case scenario in the future," Trump tweeted. "Hopefully there will be no need, but we are all in this TOGETHER!"

That way, for those who approved the move he can say he invoked the wartime act because he is a "wartime President." To those who opposed the move, Trump can say "I really didn't mean it."

Trump consistently wants it both ways. He sometimes makes a fair stand-up comic when he does this.

Referring to a vaccine for malaria (caused by a parasite) working on covid-19 (caused by a virus), Trump said that if it works, it will be a game changer. Then he added, "Or maybe not." Trump's medical expert got up to the mike quickly to explain testing of the vaccine will take months.

Trump said his government is not a "shipping clerk" when criticizing governors trying to obtain supplies. Then he said governors are doing a"fantastic job" getting supplies and Trump's FEMA director said his agency was shipping supplies to the states.

Many times Trump avoids unpleasant facts.

When asked about the travel ban imposed by his state department, Trump referred the reporter to the state department and refused to to talk about it.

When asked about the use of bandanas by health caregivers, Trump said he hasn't seen that and he turned the matter over to Pence. The bandana issues have been in the media for days.

Trump said we should have known about this months ago. China reported the virus to the WHO in December. The U.S. government became aware of the virus in January.

“We have it totally under control. ... It’s going to be just fine.”
— Donald Trump

How did this incompetent man become our President? He is a joke.

 

Trump will remain your President until at least January 2021 and there's nothing you can do about it.

 

Absolutely, whole countries are in lockdown, destroying their economies, all because the US media don't like Trump. That's a really reasonable hypothesis --- not.

 

The toadies in the media are simply a means to an en(D).
Disagree?
Explain the difference in coverage.

Not my job to help you understand things. That’s on you. Good luck.

 

You’re still making no sense.

 

Great stuff, Sandy.

You hit all the correct points.

Because a bunch of "Disgruntled Bernie People" voted for Jill Stein (or "sat it out").

I can just imagine that thought process:

"I am gonna help facilitate Trump's Election, because I am mad at the DNC, that'll show 'em"

^That is HOW this Incompetent IMBECILE became President.:smh:

 

That isn't really what those simple searches are achieving. You're getting a set of search results today based on that criteria and in the context of your own search history. The same search back in 2009 would have returned different results. You'd really need to go directly to the archives to make the kind of comparison you're talking about (and probably for more than one random day).

Also, I see a similar pattern with these but that doesn't mean anything either;

https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q="fox+news"+march+9+2020

There was definitely coverage of the H1N1 virus in 2009 on CNN, just as there was across the media. The nature and pattern of all of that coverage will have naturally been different to the COVID-19 coverage today because they're quite different situations.

 

Since when do my actions justify your actions? I would ask you to show me when I used the crisis to promote any partisan political action?
