150,000 Americans die per year from injury,13,000 just from falls http://danger.mongabay.com/injury_death.htm

. this is not to make light of it but put it into perspective that ebola is not a threat statistically and will not be to the USA as the MASSIVE PERVASIVE MEDIA coverage made it out to be. see only something that is a threat warrants such massive news coverage. now the media stopped the massive coverage after the election and no one sees how the media cried wolf again. only i see it. all you are doing is cherry picking words that i write fast to insult me. i have limited time to post and have to rush but all you seek to do is insult me by cherry picking a misplaced word or punctuation cause you can't make your argument defending the liberal media. . i don't care what you say and know what you are doing. you can't admit the media fooled you and you seek to insult me. the media lied again . you seem to be plenty angry at me but not the media for terrorizing children with all these fake threats and for destroying our country by moving the country to the left.

I am not defending the liberal media.

I simply said that:

Ebola is a very real disease. Up until this outbreak an average of 60% of the people who contracted the disease died (compared to 2.5% of those who got the 1918 flu).

It's deadly if you get it, and NOT BRINGING IT HERE will help Americans not get the disease.

In the meantime, our borders remain open to the nations affected: Over 18000 infected, over 7000 dead, there.

The media shut up because the State Department announced they were not going to limit travel from nations where the disease is wreaking havoc, and the Government was continuing to issue visas and even talking about importing people who had the disease for treatment. Mentioning that would cause people to get ticked off at Obama and his minions.

What you don't know will prevent anyone from making an assessment of risk.

If you haven't figured out that I'm not defending the liberal media, you don't have time to think, either. What they say is only part of the problem, the other part is what they do NOT report on.

Misplaced word or punctuation? Those were not mentioned, but an occasional capital letter to indicate the beginning of a sentence would make your blurts more readable for those of us who also have limited time. I only work a fast-paced 12-14 hour day, and I can hit the shift key from time to time to indicate the start of a sentence. It is a basic courtesy.

i don't care what you say and know what you are doing. you can't admit the media fooled you and you seek to insult me. the media lied again . you seem to be plenty angry at me but not the media for terrorizing children with all these fake threats and for destroying our country by moving the country to the left.

I have gone on record on what I think of the media on this site enough I need not repeat it. As for angry at you, no, sorry, you aren't on my radar. I just think it is a pity that someone posting on a conservative site is slathering two-thumb phonebabble instead of writing like they have any grasp of English composition.
