Episode Details

The Coronavirus has disrupted life in America in ways we have never seen before, with tens of millions staying at home. How is the media handling this huge story: sticking to the facts, or is there some sensationalism? And is President Trump using his daily, televised briefing to update Americans on a true crisis, or as a political propaganda platform to substitute for his rallies.
