Why don't they run non-covid content.. The amount they milk it is nauseating.
- CydeWeys 6y ago"Milk it?" This is the biggest worldwide pandemic in over a century. It's going to fundamentally reshape society for many years to come. You can't bury your head in the sand about this. Frankly, in comparison to this, almost nothing else is even worth mentioning. And anyway, it's not like there's sports to cover. Almost nothing else is going on besides the pandemic because everything was shuttered to fight the pandemic and even that is just barely enough.
- PudgePacket 6y agoI get it's big, I'm not saying don't run covid stuff. Just maybe use it for less than 99% of their content, if the issue is they can't monetise it? At a certain point it becomes information overload/noise and people just tune out, myself included.
- tree3 6y agoWhat a ridiculous comment. God forbid LA Times reports on the state of the country; the pandemic is affecting everyone significantly everyday, it would be laughable if their pages weren't filled with COVID news.
- PudgePacket 6y agoIt's mostly just every news outlet rehashing the same top stories of the week slightly differently. I get local news items running things about their area, and pieces about the state of things periodically. As it is now it's just overwhelming to look at any news. It doesn't help their case that they massively publicise things like panic buying, knowingly causing the issue to spread.
