Rachel: Media should stop covering Trump briefings because they are hurting people.

Just now. Said he is lying about really important things and the media should just stop broadcasting him. Not the first time I've heard this but maybe it will get some traction. Rachel was passionate, pleading.
Even Susan Colllins said he should not be the spokesperson; public health officials should be.

And She is correct. The Media should boycott his pressers from now on. And no cameras. Let Fox and Breitbart cover it.

She is struggling to hold her own emotions under control in so many stories, it is threatening to let loose mine. She is an American hero and a genius journalist.

I think they can back out of it by making it about protecting their reporters from infection, and nobody would blame them for that.

If Cap'n CrapMyPants wants to speak to the media or the public, he can do it via some video feed.
