    I will agree it has been politicized in part.

    Nothing to do with calling anyone a name. and stupid isn't name calling. Unless you are a preschooler or... are just trolling because you didn't like was said. or maybe you were offended because you believe the same.

    I'm not sure the Wuhan has been politicized as much as it just gets reported on by people who are no longer capable of actually reporting the news, but instead look at and report everything through a partisan prism, or in some cases, not even a partisan prism as much as an orangeman bad prism. There's just nothing they view as beyond politics, and if they don't t hink it has an implication for politics, they no longer think of it as newsworthy.

    I think another issue is we have reporters who absolutely do not understand the topics. When journalism was much better in the past, you would never have a random reporter interpreting the science. They would get the info, contact someone to help translate it for them into understandable language, and then report. Some publications actually hired journalists who specialized in fields so they had a better understanding of the topic. With instant reporting, that is gone. So our dumb ass reporters who can't even get names and dates right half the time are now giving instant interpretation of what they are hearing - and they get stuff wrong.
    "After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

    That's a great stat. Will be a telling sign if the numbers stay down over the next two weeks.. as rises have typically happened after holiday weekends.

    Averaging 542 cases per day. Numbers have continued to fall despite schools and colleges starting back. We were averaging 847 cases per day on August 12. Pretty remarkable.

    Unless we are still slow on testing/reporting from labor day weekend, it looks like we're about to have a pretty significant drop in our 7 day averages. I was expecting a big number today to correspond to the usual Tuesday big numbers. Only 426 today.
