The news has long been more entertainment than information, at least in the US. And perhaps Trump stumbling with clown shoes through this whole ordeal is just confirming something you already know, but I'd hope that people who previously voted for him might cast a more critical eye over his actions in light of his shambolic response.
- catalogia 7y agoWhether or not these sort of headlines are politically beneficial, my point is that very few of these news stories give me any information I can use regarding Covid-19. Really my comment wasn't about politics, it just happened that most of the top headlines were political. Here are two more headlines to better illustrate my point: >I moved to Paris during lockdown. Here's what I found I am not in Paris, so this article is worthless to me. There is nothing I can do with knowledge of the situation in Paris. > How to make your own face mask This however, is information I could actually put to use. Articles like this are sadly a minority.
