With all this hype, all this terror, panic, end-of-the-world sensationalism that we are being fed day after day by the media. Is there any chance, given their history of trying this before, that they are using a common cold/flu to literally destroy our economy?
CNN leads the way when it comes to One Story Journalism, choosing to grasp the hot button du jour and run with it until they can't no more. What concerns me though is that there's a deeper plot going on. One that has been tried before recently and failed. Perhaps this is another attempt at destroying the economy for the sake of political change?
If that turns out to be the case, how can we hold them accountable?

Employment at newspapers is half of what it was in the year 2000. Journalism has been in a depression for 20 years.

They just want us to feel their pain.
I agree that media is going to sensationalize any and every catastrophic event that comes along. That's what sells advertising, and keeps their coffers full. It's just seeming that this has been waaaaaaay overblown, almost on purpose to me.
We gave it it's chance to see if it was going to be "lethal" or not. It wasn't. Time to open it back up. Sorry bread line communists, You're gonna have to let go.
Another round of Trump Pine-Sol on the Rocks for EVERYONE!!
Nowhere in the OP's opening post does he mention Trump or any political party.
Why do you believe he is a Trump fan? Just because he doesn't trust CNN or much of the media?
