Well there's a pretty good reason this won't work for the given example (newspapers). Why am I gonna wait for an NBC article when CNN (or worse FOX) posted the story already for free? Some types of reporting I would be happy to fu

Yeah I disagree. I guess it kinda just depends on how you define "generally". In my opinion, the only country that acted rationally was NZ. China hid the outbreak until it was already endemic in many countries. Brazil shit the bed
