A ton of attention initially was given to safety (I mean large swaths of the country shut down and there’s plenty of business that still hasn’t reopened) however the sensationalist media is obviously sensational and people know it. Now instead of safety people, regular Joes, are thumbing their noses refusing to wear masks and otherwise just doing whatever because it looks like a big sham precisely because of the sensationalism.
- wolco 6y agoIt may seem sensational because everything was happening in New York. Regular Joe's are funny if you tell them they can't wear a mask they would wear one. The divide feels age related. People are going to die over it.
- jonquest 6y agoIt seems sensational because the media has purposely done so just like this NYT headline. It’s almost as sensational as saying “people are going to die over it.” Of course they are. They already have.
