'Incalculable loss': New York Times covers front page with 1,000 Covid-19 death notices
The Guardian ^ | May 23, 2020 | Guardian Staff

As the US approaches the grim milestone of 100,000 coronavirus deaths, the New York Times has filled the entire front page of Sunday’s paper with the death notices of victims from across the country.

In a decision the paper said was intended to convey the vastness and variety of the tragedy, the front page is a simple list of names and personal details taken from obituaries around the US.

The headline is “US deaths near 100,000, an incalculable loss”, with a sub-heading that reads: “They were not simply names on a list. They were us.”

Yup.
I think they planned it.
The idea was to engineer/pump up “coronavirus deaths” to a certain very high number, say 100,000, coordinate with the fake media department of the Democratic Party, and produce big front page spectaculars like this one.

Yes I agree. Bush’s relations with media was his Achilles’ heel. We need to remember that in the era after Trump is no longer our President. We will have to train Trump 2.0.

And anyone wonders WHY “newspapers” like the NY SLIMES & the WASHINGTON COMPOST are dying?

Personally, I think that we all would be better of IF they went defunct.

Actually THE NATIONAL INQUIRER may be MORE trustworthy than THE NY SLIMES in 2020.

As of 12:07am Sun morning the official Heyjackass.com count was up to 6 killed and 15 wounded in shootings this weekend in the not so great city of Chicago. They managed to reach your guess of 20 shot before even reaching halftime.

Will their next issue feature 1,000 liberals thanking Red China for killing 100,000 Americans and destroying our economy?

Maybe AARP should buy a full page in this rag and list all the names of those who were MURDERED by Cuomo in nursing homes.

Pandemics will cause death. Especially in a big city like NYC where subways were NEVER shut down and virus patients were sent to nursing homes.

I’m sure my NYC cousin who “died of Covid 19” is on there. She was in terrible health and was never tested for Covid 19.

The *first* 1,000 counts of aggravated manslaughter / deprivation of rights under colour of law, against the Mafioso-looking pervert Governor Cuomo.

How many of the 40 million unemployed are on the front page?
When will their stories be told?
