We do agree with Brian Stelter on part of his tweet, there is definitely a whole lot of dull in the news. Maybe if they spent more time reporting facts and less time reporting crazy and terrifying conspiracies to dunk on Trump that wouldn’t be the case. Wouldn’t it be nice if we actually had a functioning media we could trust?
The news is a dull roar – empowering some of the time but disconcerting most of the time. The reports from hospitals are straight out of a nightmare. And if you're anything like me, the virus has started to infect your dreams, too… https://t.co/vDz9IBmuOJ

Because that’s totally sane, Brian.
Well with Chinese Propaganda you've been pushing, I'm not surprised.

Seriously. We’d be having nightmares too.
Or maybe he’s just jealous of Jim Acosta’s diary.

Dear Diary,
People on Fox News are big meanies. I wish my show was half as popular as their least popular show.
Love,
Tater
#DearDiary,
I woke up with wet bedsheets. Not because of sweat, but because I'm a terrified little b!+ch and pissed myself. So much for bravery. I think I'll go back to misquoting the president and using the virus as a political prop to take my mind off of my own cowardice. https://t.co/xUKkcbKzKy— Allen Ray I'm the Lyme Disease to Your Coronavirus (@2CynicAl65) March 22, 2020
Oof.
Tater, the reports I’m hearing from an actual employee at a large medical center are quite the opposite. A few cases, everything is under control, and most of the positives are stable and discharged to quarantine at home. Tell us more about your dream, dear.

We searched and searched and couldn’t find any real stories about hospitals being nightmares so we’re not entirely sure where Brian got that? Maybe he dreamed it.
Don't you have more critical directions to give the Surgeon General??? https://t.co/sh95JA7wKi

We see what he did here.
You are but a strand of DNA in the nightmare #fakenews virus.

The media sadly seem almost more dangerous than the actual virus.
Not as much as the virus of propaganda….

The panic and upcoming depression to which people like you have contributed will kill far more than the virus. The flu has still killed more in US this year than Wuhan has in entire world. Thousands die for every percent unemployment rises. Then there’s the poverty & misery left

Whispers: it's the journos that are the real nightmare.

And that’s NOT fake news.
