For a good part of 2020, media outlets, including CNN, featured hosts and guests who either mocked or were wildly skeptical of President Trump’s announced goal to have a coronavirus vaccine approved for use before the end of 2020. Now that it’s become a reality, the media has moved the “success” goal posts to criticize the speed at which the vaccine is being distributed.
It seems that CNN’s already declaring 2021 to be a failure as far as distribution goes:

Hang in there. I’m sure they’ll change their tune in a few weeks.

Even after the vaccine is fully distributed, CNN will undoubtedly find something else to blame Trump for (definitely not Biden, who they’ll credit with speeding up distribution).
