Tom Cotton has made bombastic statements for years. He makes a another seemingly bombastic statement and rightfully gets ignored, ridiculed, or scorned - and now I'm supposed to be concerned that happened? Tom Cotton is the boy who cried wolf. He has earned the privilege of being ignored. I'm not going to blame the media for ignoring him.
Now a year later and we still haven't determined where this virus came from. People who haven't earned the privilege of being ignored are now starting to present evidence that perhaps the Wuhan Lab was involved in some way. The media is paying attention to those people. They're also paying attention to Beijing being less that forthcoming in helping to get to the bottom of the issue.
I honestly don't see a big smoking gun with the media's coverage of this issue. Certainly nothing warranting the term fiasco.
