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.â€
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.â€
