This will be blamed on the president for his attacks on the fake news. I’m surprised they haven’t already.

“...We know this tragic news is difficult to absorb, especially at a time when we are under so much strain. ...”

Oh good grief. A journalist? Strain?

Most certainly not an intellectual strain.

Nor a moral one.

Sorry, but you media vermin have lost all respect.

Too bad, because we know there are a few good ones out there.

Very few, but they are out there.

Re: Washington Post reporter Darran Simon was found dead in his apartment on Thursday,

Are they going to code this as a Covid-29 death?

CoV until proven otherwise. Death determination must be done within 24 hours of death. (actually WI DHS has said this). Case closed.

Terminal case of TDS? He came to the ComPost from CNN.

The article did not give a cause of death, but they gave the suicide hotline number & also said (which makes you think likely ‘suicide’):

“We get a lot of sick days, and you can use them to take a mental health day whenever you need one. You don’t have to specify it’s a mental health day.

You can join the #mental-wellness-team channel on the Guild Slack to ask questions about therapy and cost coverage. If you need assistance navigating insurance, ask us. We’re here to help you.”

I guess any crack about meeting his deadline would be just too insensitive.

Darran's thread of posts sounds like the obituaries for the Coronavirus. With this kind of thing mixed in
"Black residents disproportionately represented in D.C. coronavirus data"
With a link to the always fake news Washington Post.

Trump mentioned closing down the economy could see suicides soar. The media kicked him.

The Union’s email makes it sound like suicide.

Of course given DC politics, it could have been an involuntary suicide.

I’m guessing an overdose to combat the pain of his demented propagandic beliefs not matching reality.
