Mad to see their US and UK just turning their back on 40 years of neoliberal policy when coronavirus comes along. If we manage to live we might actually be entering uncharted territory. Sleepy Joe has his work cut out for him.

Trump flounders in the pandemic â but goes from Nero to hero in a week | Arwa Mahdawi
The president’s handling of the coronavirus crisis has been feeble. But that’s the beauty of setting an incredibly low bar for yourself – you can fail upwww.theguardian.com
Anthony Fauci becomes a fringe MAGA target
The cues from right-wing media, as split as they are, could influence how much Trump listens to his infectious disease expert in the coming weeks.www.politico.com
"To the vast majority of Republicans, the entire medical community and the country at large, Fauci is the government’s leading infectious disease expert, respected for providing Americans with consistent, factual information about the coronavirus pandemic. But to a vocal minority of right-wing blogs and pro-Trump pundits, Fauci is the embodiment of the establishment forces that have been arrayed against the president since he came to Washington"
Honestly the silence and hypocrisy from the big guns in liberal media around this Biden assault allegation is absolutely deafening

Joe Biden Faces Sexual Assault Allegations From A Former Staffer
Update, March 28, 2020: Joe Biden’s campaign has denied Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation. In a statement on Friday his campaign manager, Kate Bedingfield, said, “Women have a right to tell their story, and reporters have an obligation to rigorously vet those claims. We encourage them to do so,www.yahoo.com
I suppose i'm more angry that they still cling to the veneer of integrity and impartiality while obviously being completely partisan publications. They're not covering it because Biden is their man, i'd be less bothered personally if they just admitted this. I mean the case against Kavanaugh was considerably less damning than this.It might be because virtually every statement made by Team Trump is a lie, and this is presumed to be another one lobbed out of their camp.
We'll find out over time I suppose. Kiddie fiddlers, rapists, and so on don't tend to just wake up one morning and decide to do vile shit that day and then see the error of their ways and stop. So, if Joe For Fucks Sake Biden is fond of sexual assault there's going to be more than one example. There'd be a string of allegations, and who knows, maybe a taped admission made to a journalist on a bus.
I was reading Dark Money by Jane Mayer there last night. The Kochs didn't like Jane prying into their election interference so they sic'd their dogs on her. But Jane is an exceptionally boring person, so they just made up some shit about her plagiarizing other journalists. Jane called the journalists and they said is was nonsense, the story didn't do well. It was picked up by two outlets, and then canned. But that's the point, lies are spewed out at a ferocious rate and journalists know this to some extent. If a story comes out of left field, and isn't getting traction, it's possible that a lot of outlets just don't believe it.
It's possible that there's some big conspiracy going on too, but I think you have to keep in mind that outlets have a sense of how truthful a story seems, and they act accordingly.

edit: To be clear, I have no idea if this story is true or not and I thought that the Kavanaugh case should have been enough to prevent him from getting on the Supreme Court, even if not enough for a criminal case against him, but you are quite right that a case like this should be investigated fully, which they do not appear to be doing? Maybe i'm jumping the gun and they're on it right now.
I'm not saying they are corporate shills, i'm saying they refuse to acknowledge that they are partially the media wing of the Democratic Party, and that they refuse to acknowledge that their writing has any ideological beliefs whatsoever, and that this is not only fundamentally dishonest but also a massive weakness that allows them to be constantly, successfully, attacked by the right.Well... obviously I've no idea. And I actively don't like Joe For Fucks Sake Biden, but I wouldn't discount the possibility that a lot of news outlets took a look at this and thought it absolutely reeked of horseshit and lies. Just like they did when people came after Jane Mayer.
I'm keeping in mind the possibility exists that news outlets have some idea of what they are doing, and they're not all horrific corporate shills.

Dr. Fauci has to have security now.
Fauci gets security detail after receiving threats
HHS Secretary Alex Azar had grown concerned about the growing online attacks against Fauci — whose profile soared since he started regularly flanking Trump at White House coronavirus briefings.www.politico.com
Some of Trump's most zealous far-right supporters have targeted Fauci online, arguing that he's worked to undermine Trump by publicly disagreeing with the president, and have begun spreading conspiracy theories about Fauci’s role.
Huge fan of this image.Mad to see their US and UK just turning their back on 40 years of neoliberal policy when coronavirus comes along. If we manage to live we might actually be entering uncharted territory. Sleepy Joe has his work cut out for him.
