People, we really need to back off criticism of the poor media types.

They're working overtime to project tension and drama for our entertainment. Just listen to the tone of their voices. The rhythm of their respiration, the heights of their blood pressures, the bugging of their eyeballs. There's something for everyone. For example, the linguist community (Really, their IS a linguist community. Honest. B'leeve me.) is being regaled with word forms unheard for decades. Hyperbole is the lingua franca of these last few days. I'll coin a phrase: Hyperbolic Hyperbole.

And through it all, they speak to us as the idiots they think we are. As if we hang on their every word so we dopes can know what to think.

Please gods, let this be over.

Meanwhile, how about a collection so we can send oxygen tanks to the on air fluffballers who are speaking so fast they haven't got time to breathe until next Wednesday or even beyond.

1. Stop watching TV "news"

Especially cable TV "news". After Faux "news" set the mark, the rest have been trying to play "catch up".

See also, "Network" (the movie, 1976).

I dropped corporate "news" in 2008 after everyone came on-board for the Iraq invasion.

There is no "news".... (and for that matter, there is no spoon.)

With so many messengers to shoot he must've run out of epithet and vilification ammo.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Wonder if Mike understands why the trophy wife leaves the room every time her phone makes a buzz sound?
