    The masses are generally stupid, and the mass of CNN viewers are no exception. They're likely only surpassed in their stupidity by Fox News viewers. Regardless, the fewer idiots that hear Trump vomit lies and misinformation, the better.

    Right wing media stated that COVID is just a Democratic party attack on the president that is obviously fake news.

    And, that was not just one media outlet - it came from many, including Hannity, Trish Reagan, Rushbo, Breitbart and others. There were NO corrections of that coming from our executive branch.

    So yes, it's pretty important to not listen to right wing news - other than to know what they are saying.

    There is absolutely NO question that Cuomo is providing the most solid leadership on COVID.

    Again, the job of real journalists is to discover and report the 4Ws + 1H.

    Our "journalists", AKA Fake News Hacks tend to avoid asking questions that really need to be answered.
    For instance:

    1. When did the CCP stop domestic travel in and out of Wuhan?
    2. When did the CCP stop international flights out of Wuhan?
    3. Who was 'patient zero'?
    4. Where was patient zero infected?
    5. When was patient zero infected?
    6. Why hasn't extensive antibody testing already been completed?
    7. Why isn't hydroxychloroquine being given to Americans at high risk of dying from Chinese Wuhan Coronavirus?
    8. Who are the manufacturers of hydroxychloroquine?
    9. Where is hydroxychloroquine manufactured?
    10. How much hydroxychloroquine do we have available?

    As I said, CNN, MSNBC, Faux, are not news. They are reality tv. If one listens to them for news, the are being fooled and I consider them to be fools for believing any reality tv show as truth.

    I would agree except for FOX which not only gives the leftist a voice but gives them too big a voice IMO. Having Chris Wallace for instance host their Sunday show is handing the keys to FOX to the left.

    But I did point out that there were plenty in the article.....which apparently you didn't read. But to keep you happy.....
    Last week, they warned about "Fox's fake news contagion." Then there was Wednesday's article. Talk about a lie. This show is telling you about the dangers of this disease way back in January, when "The Times" was still wondering if it was racist to even know it existed and encouraging you to travel to Wuhan on vacation.

    Now, we're highlighting the continued dishonesty and malevolence of China. Meanwhile, The New York Times and their star reporter, Donald McNeil, is going over to MSNBC to deliver unpaid infomercials for the Chinese Communist Party.

    Again, you are unable to paste up a single quote from Carlson that you have an issue with.
    That may be a clue for you.

    News outlets have all asked these questions repeatedly.

    Some have been answered and thus reported. Some don't have answers and that has been reported.

    Did you expect something else?

    Faux is likely the worst.

    Very little they talk about is truth. They certainly are no better than any other reality tv program. Remember, they only cater to a small segment of the population that is already in the camp of like mindedness. As all do.

    You are ignoring the fact that the Trump hating liberal Chris Wallace holds the highly coveted position of the Sunday show anchor.

    Still reality tv.
    Maybe they try to throw in some news programming. But the vast majority is just opinion pieces.

    Nothing wrong with opinion pieces as long as opinions are not presented as news like CNN does.

    Sorry if this has already been posted. It's sort of telling in contrast with the constant accusations about Trump not doing enough and underplaying the virus.
