You are getting played.
Just like in 2016 it's all Chump, all the time. Chump at Walter Reed is the new rally. You stand around to get ratings points and increase your revenue.
No discussion of: no follow-up on his appeal to the racists Proud Boys, no discussion of his out of control debate performance, zero coverage of McMasters information about Russian influence on Chump, and his bogus taxes, etc.
You continue to be the dogs that chase the stick. Chump tosses the stick and you follow. What a fucking joke.
Any updates from Chump's "doctors" will all be lies. When there is legitimate information (not from any Chump source) cover it, otherwise it's trash.
As the saying goes, there is no education in a second kick of a mule. A lesson not learned by the MSM.

(4,846 posts)The problem is then they spend the next 12 hours talking about those statements and Trump. They could spare a few minutes per show to go back to the other news. But they chose Trump and COVID only.

(15,012 posts)they get all the ratings benefit and suffer no significant backlash if they just move on from one outrage to the next without ever circling back properly.
They cover this stuff this way on purpose. It isn't Trump or Trumpland manipulating the media, it is the media finding a useful idiot in Trump.

(35,382 posts)say he is great. Joe Biden pulls his ads while Trump is getting free negative ads on Fox and wall to wall coverage
on his health everywhere else. I am starting to think he may pull a win out of this again with the help of the stupid
media whores. I am starting to think his having COVID
is the f----g hoax. This may be the October surprise.
