Some perspective about coronavirus deaths per state, per 100,000 residents:

NJ (171) and NY (166) have approximately 10x COVID-19 deaths of GA (27) AZ (24) FL (17) and CA (6), and approximately 20x that of Texas (9).

@FourthWatch Why aren’t COVID-19 deaths correlated with a rise in cases & hospitalizations in states like Texas and Florida?

Shorter hospital stays, younger patients, less severe cases… and a weakened disease? The media remains incurious. My @FourthWatch newsletter: mailchi.mp/thefirsttv/fou…

- @TuckerCarlson isn’t going to run for president - what he’s really up to (besides dominating cable news)

- Jon Stewart returns, and shows everyone who he remains singular in the cultural commentator space

Some media outlets, like @propublica, have been doing an excellent job tracking the catastrophic and deadly New York coronavirus response.

But others need to get over their personal affinity for Gov. Cuomo and do their job. My @FourthWatch newsletter:

- An attempt to actually, objectively, quantify media bias - and how you can help @adfontesmedia keep rating the news

- The thought suppression instinct from the media requiring “cognitive dissonance” to attack Facebook

CNN reporter says in private Facebook post that his CHAZ/CHOP reporting is "a counter narrative to Fox propaganda of what things looks like in Seattle.”

How about…no narratives at all, and just report the facts? My @FourthWatch newsletter: mailchi.mp/thefirsttv/fou…
@FourthWatch Coronavirus deaths continue to decline, across the country (while over index in NY/NJ/MA/CT). Why, despite the media’s reporting about SPIKES and SURGES in coronavirus cases. It’s because the media is missing the real COVID-19 story. @FourthWatch: mailchi.mp/thefirsttv/fou…

There's a strange media instinct to craft a narrative around the Seattle lawlessness as if it's some utopia, where everyone is getting along and everything is wonderful.

My @FourthWatch newsletter starts with the narrative around CHAZ/CHOP:

@FourthWatch Two coronavirus stories the media isn’t getting right - the rise in cases (but only slight rise in hospitalizations and decline in deaths)… and some more politicized garbage reporting on hydroxychloroquine.

I’m not sure we’re going to see a big surge in coronavirus hospitalizations after the massive protests - low outdoor spread, hot weather, young people.

But that doesn’t make the media’s hypocritical coverage any less glaring.

@FourthWatch There is no greater sign of privilege than journalists complaining over every perceived slight, like seeing any opinion in print they vehemently disagree with. Forget the readers, the public - it's a selfish pursuit.

The purge has started. @FourthWatch: mailchi.mp/thefirsttv/fou…
