Big Media is doing a better job terrorizing us than Al-Quaeda ever did [vanity]

At least Al-Quaeda openly admitted they were our enemy, while Big Media pretends to be on our side. But constant stories about worst-case-scenarios, always throwing shade on anything which might offer hope, always looking for the worst news to report - that's been Big Media's motto the last few weeks, and it's creating a negative impact on peoples' lives.

And it's deliberate too - they WANT people to be afraid, feel unsafe, so that they can claim all this chaos is because of Pres. Trump - the lesson is clear: get rid of him, and things will return to normal. This is despicable, even by Big Media's lowly standards.

No wonder they hate Pres. Trump's press conferences, because he offers hope - which negates all their ongoing attempts to terrorize the public. If this was WWII, Big Media would constantly run stories about how many of our troops were getting killed, how Europe was lost so we might as well not bother fighting, etc.

Time to view Big Media as a malicious entity deliberately threatening our mental heath - and sadly that's no April Fool's joke.

I bet if everyone turned off Big Media, the suicide rate would go down at least 10 %

Until Big Media starts behaving responsibly, AVOID ... for the sheer sake of your health

Starting to think it is LESS their natural inclination and MORE a conspiracy to keep the economy on its knees. After all the journalists will always have their jobs.

The sheer volume of panic and fear, you are right. The overreaction of government across the nation, you are right. This thing WILL turn out to be one of the biggest hoax’s ever perpetrated on us all.
We are extremely fortunate that this novel virus is as weak as it is.

The narrative seems to be, that Trump has mismanaged the crisis, and reacted too little, too late, to the crisis.

We know facts don’t matter to the liberals or media. The inconvenient truth, is that the Democrats didn’t see this coming.

This reminds me a bit of hurricane Katrina, where local Democrat officials in Louisiana were held blameless for lack of preparation and evacuation, with all blame cast upon a Republican president for everything that went wrong.

Here we see a Democrat governor and mayor of New York, similarly held blameless for any shortcomings in their respnse to NY being the epicenter of the crisis. Instead, all media and liberal blame is cast upon a Republican president. As if whoever sits in the white house is supposed to deal with the day to day ordering of medical supplies.

My spouse was watching the news last night and I had to leave. It was overwrought and maudlin. Every interview was some person crying or in anquish at how hard they are working with no supplies or are putting themselves in danger.

I get it! Soldier on. It’s hard. I get it!

I’m sorry but this has turned into a spectical with everyone feeling victimized and sorry for themselves. Like a giant pity party.

Yeah, I am truly sorry for those adversely impacted, but what happened to “Let’s Roll”?

Well the muzzies have probably realized they were wasting their time with bombs and be-headings. A well place virus can more damage than a thousand bombs.

Just looked at Johns Hopkins site. Shows 911,308 worldwide cases, 45,497 deaths and 191,673 recovered.

So why don't we see stories about the very large number of recoveries ???

always looking for the worst news to report

Fox News is just as bad as the rest when it comes to sensationalizing this virus. I've also noticed that even on conservative talk radio, the news at every half hour is all doom and gloom about it.

We would never even had a chance to win WWII with a media like this in operation.

That was back when Englishmen were men, not beta males. Of course we [Americans] were men back then, too.

(D)ommunists and their enemedia toadies have been giving handjobs and classified material to the ChiComs since the '30s.

Their treason having continued unabated in the interim, and even ratcheting up during this biofustercluck, should come as no surprise.
The most (sadly) surprising thing is that we haven't seen thousands of them hanging from trees in payment for their perfidy.

A sane republic would protect itself not only from its external enemies, but from those within the gates as well.
We are, apparently, no longer sufficiently sane.

Exactly...

This virus is real...But it can be taken care of...

The liberal media and the liberal politicians have money and they do not worry about their jobs (media)...They continue to build it up and build it up to make Trump look bad and to stop the economic boom that Trump helped create...As I said, they don’t worry about THEIR jobs, but they could not care less about every other American who might lose everything because of the liberal politicians and liberal media constantly sensationalizing this virus...

The biggest part of the American people only see and hear what is put out on the national news controlled by the liberals...That is a big reason there is so much panic and uncertainty looming..

I have yet to meet anyone who feels terrorized or afraid. Not saying they don’t exist, but I have met anyone like that, including friends from northern Italy and people I know trapped outside the US. Seems kind of over the top.
