The majority of the WH press is about as worthless as what my dog pooped out a week ago. These idiots have no relevant questions and are simply blocking the few legitimate reporters from inquiring about legitimate issues.

As Brian Williams at MSNBC once said. Our job is not to report the news, our job is to tell people what to think. And they want us to think Trump is doing a lousy job on everything and never talk about anything good that he does.

Weaselly reporter asks Pence to throw Trump under the bus as soon as he leaves presser

President Donald Trump declared that America will be back very quickly after dealing with the coronavirus crisis, speaking to reporters on the outbreak at a White House press briefing. As ...

I actually listened to the conference this morning by Trump, Pence, Fauci, ADM Brett Giroir, Assistant Secretary for Health, and Ben Carson, and this news report is true it struck me that the reporters were rarely asking helpful questions but instead were snarky, interrupting, and trying to find an angle for blame. It was shameful. We would get a very biased and wrong impression if we only listen to what reporters tell us to think and if we don t listen to the actual news/event.

I got the strong impression the government agencies were working very hard at fixing this problem, from relaxing regulations keeping industrial masks out of the health care field when they are perfectly suitable, to pushing forward drug approval and studies, to allowing doctors to decide whether to make an off-label use of chloroquine and azithromycin in consultation with their patients rather than wait for FDA approval, to imploring successfully American companies to manufacture masks, ventilators, etc. and that we are responding without Trump having to mandate via the emergency war powers act, to respecting the decision by governors of highly affected states like CA, NY, IL which have dense urban populations to quarantine citizens but allowing governors of less populated states to make their own decisions.

He also threaded the needle beautifully on China by not insulting them but saying there are great people he respects there, but they should have told the world sooner and we might have prevented some deaths.

He also defended that he didn t act sooner by pointing out the obvious he stopped all flights from China very early and was called xenophobic or even racist for doing so, and now everyone admits that was the right move, as well as shutting flights from Europe.

I for one am sick of the snip ty, snarky coverage by the press how really adds little of value. They are backseat drivers who only know how to criticize and mock. Screw them let them try to grapple with a situation like this in real time and see what kind of leadership and decisions they come up with. Likely zilch.

Again the main point is how important it is to get ones news from the actual source event rather than let these junior hacks tell us how to think. They are irresponsible. They ve forgotten that a story is who, what, when, where, how, and perhaps why . Instead it s their opinion piece, invariably nasty against Republicans, fawning if its Democrats. Tired of it, they are who really pulls this country apart.

Peace.
