Media sells advertising, not news. They report the news so as to appeal to the largest possible audience. The news is written and reported to maximize ad revenue and to not offend advertisers.

I wonder how long before these Chicken Little true believers realize that they are getting the numbers for these Corona Virus casualties the same way they get dead people to vote for them during the national elections.

Nobody is cashing in more through this than the media. I bet this fizzles out in 2-3 weeks...the death toll will be under 80k TOPS. By June the economy will be up and running, albeit with a lot less businesses and a slew of unemployed People. .02. Tag this thread. I hope that you are right, but math and science say that you are dead wrong. No way it fizzles out in 2-3 weeks. NO WAY. One month ago there were about 9 American deaths due to Covid-19. One week ago there were about 1,000 American deaths due to Covid-19 As of April 3rd (today) there are over 6,100 American dealths due to Covid-19. Want to guess what this math shows in another month? In three more months? In 2020? It's going to be many months and might be as long as 18-24+ months before the world can even begin to resume a 'new' normal. We have no vaccine. Experts say that Vaccine development will take another 18+months. Spoken like a true Canadian pussy, er, lefty, er communist. 😜

You can’t believe the number of deaths anyway. They want anything remotely resembling a common cold labeled has cv19 deaths. These f-ckers will stop at nothing.

Who's biding is the media doing? that's the question I don't think the media is being bossed about, they are handmaidens of the dims, libs. progressives, socialists.

This is good for a chuckle. A newly released and supposedly scientific study reveals no bias in media reporting. I haven't read the study, but if I am reading this article right, the study was based on surveys of journalists themselves ("Biased? Who, me?") and something or another on Twitter. Sounds really solid. https://phys.org/news/2020-04-media-bias-story.html

They are a bit dated now (Brokow, Rather, Jennings era) but the media has not moved to the right since then...
