As if the president was not leading from the front ?

Buahahahahahahahaha!

NBC is so fraught with hatred and envy of the President, that they just keep sticking their collective heads further up their collective arses.

Just like the targeted Coronavirus, the politics of hatred will not survive in America, and neither will it’s media promulgators.

The hype for this is ridiculous. I think this over-prep is to avoid potential lawsuits. But, good grief! A little common sense is necessary.

NBC = Comcast = American enemy

Comcast is a more dangerous American enemy than Iran or Russia

I’d say it’s more like business is doing what its always done and not rely on government to solve all the world’s problems.

And/or...

Business is taking its lead from President Trump and doing what’s necessary to help.

Blatant TDS at NBC. They paid three “journalists” to write this “news” story. If you get the chance, abuse a journalist today

I can see these three earnest, little journalism school snowflakes sitting before their Comcast editor, being instructed on how to portray this latest manufactured narrative, to the brain-dead drones who still actually believe that NBC is a “ news “ organization.

These three are probably also holding up mindless placards behind Bernie at one of his rallies.

“I’d say it’s more like business is doing what its always done and not rely on government to solve all the world’s problems.”

Exactly. If we all were waiting for government to take care of us, we’d all be...democrats.

What the average citizen does not know is that in MSM outlet offices there’s a game where individuals compete with each other in creating lefty propaganda by twisting information to have it appear it supports their political position.

That’s the reason I frequently post this
In political campaigns while the use of Social Electronic Formats are useful in presenting political positions. Relying solely on using those venues is a mistake because of their SEF content limitations and media bias .

Consideration of the use of reprinted material including handouts and flyers such as of articles in FR and the planning of area saturation distribution known as “blitzing” in the targeted area is essential of one wants to win.

Microsoft is telling people to work from home. My employer says if you have cold or flu symptoms, go home. .

Many members of my family are trained and have or are working in the world of medicine. Some deal with research. I have believed from the start of all this that the damage coming from the lack of information about the coronavirus and the ensuing fear will do far more damage to this country than the virus itself will do. Who, in their right mind would not be panicked any day through reading the Drudge Report the past week. The media thrives on fear and bad news. Anyway, I am relieved that Laura Ingraham on last night's show, discussed with Dr. Ramin Oskoui, Cardiologist, the question of why the CDC has not released more information about those who have been diagnosed with the virus..Age, gender, ethnicity..factors which might give information about who could be at greater risk and would not break the HIPPA law in any respect. Evidently, this discussion has been sorely needed since, according to Dr. Oskoui, similar information was gathered and released in response to the SARS and MERS epidemics. Could things like air quality, for example, play a role? Evidently, some want to know whether genetics might play a role. Dr. Oskoui did say that he has not been a fan of the highly politicized CDC in other issues. The public needs all this information, whether it will calm the situation or not. We must not let fear and panic control. Truth is almost always helpful. We need more information about the victims of this and how we can help them and our nation to survive intact.

‘They’ have been conning us my entire life.
Start with grade school ‘under the desk for protection from the ABomb’, and working its way up through the lies and deceit related about the VN war etc etc etc
Johnny Carson & others creating a toilet paper shortage by predicting one (1973)
Geraldo and his ‘Al Capone vault’, Schiff for brains and Pelosi etal and all the PROOF of the PDJT/Russian collusion etc etc etc, just to cite a few.

‘They’ have me so ‘twisted’ that were I to die from Corona this afternoon I would be calling this latest ‘sky is falling hoax’ a scam.

Of course, I didn’t ‘weaken’ my system by taking every ‘flu shot’ that came down the pike and still can’t help but gloat as my ‘comrades’ are coming down with flu and I have to hit them with....”Took that f’n flu shot huh?” which completely ‘unendears’ them to me while they - in unision - wish me struck with something....<: <: <:

From the corporations’ point of view, it’s better to over-prep than under-prep. If any of their employees get sick in the course of doing their jobs, the corporations are going to get sued and they know it.

While I agree with you that a little common sense is necessary, common sense seems to be in short supply.
