CBS shamelessly pushes claim Trump and Republicans care more about economy than saving lives
April 17, 2020 | Frieda Powers

CBS News failed again to do its journalistic duty to its viewers as it repeatedly presented biased reporting suggesting President Trump is not concerned with American lives.

In network coverage this week, anchors and reporters ignored the real need of delivering factual information to Americans about the coronavirus pandemic and instead, took time to criticize the president’s efforts to reopen the US economy.

Anchor Norah O’Donnell informed viewers on Wednesday that Trump would be announcing the guidelines for reopening parts of the country to get Americans back to work, but added that the expected remarks come “even as the mayor right here in D.C., the nation’s capital, extended her stay-at-home order to May 15.”

Reporter Ben Tracy told viewers that “the President has not said which states he thinks can safely reopen,” adding that Trump “will defer to his health experts on this” because “it’s clear he made up his mind it’s time to get at least some of the country back open for business.”

Actually, Trump cares about being re-elected and the Republicans want to hold onto the senate.  But yes, both tie into the state of the economy come November.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Oh, c'mon. How can people use up all that toilet paper in the garage if they don't eat?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I wonder if there's a way to seize the assets of news anchors and their corporate employers as recompense for causing a worldwide depression.  We are facing untold misery for years to come ... clearly, they don't give a damn, and somebody has to pay for it.

Lives,
