”I feel that this hysterical main stream media response is fear porn.”

That may or may not be the case, if it bleeds it leads.

But I am amazed that people out there still think that the c19 response is media driven.

NYC has almost 34,000 cases of the virus and heading towards 1000 deaths and the rapid rate of growth is staggering.

The city is expecting these numbers to increase massively and city hospitals cannot cope and have resorted to storing dead bodies in Costco freezer trucks.

The Governor of NY has mobilized the National Guard and the Navy have sent a hospital ship to the city.

I am the last person on earth to believe commercial news media outlets however these grim numbers are not the result of a media beat up.

The Government and business are not reacting the way they have simply because leaders happened to turn on the tv news one day.
