CNN on Friday made sure its viewers knew not to inject bleach to protect themselves from covid-19. In multiple segments, the network’s hosts denounced President Trump’s unfathomably dumb remarks from Thursday evening about covid-19 treatments involving disinfectant and light. Host Anderson Cooper was unmerciful regarding the White House’s shifting explanations for those remarks: It first blamed the media for taking them out of context; Trump later explained that they were merely sarcastic comments aimed at reporters.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that when we face our largest challenges, one of our greatest needs is access to reliable news and information. Representatives and Senators on both sides of the aisle on Capitol Hill have expressed support for the public service role that is being played by local newspapers and broadcasters in their districts and states. Last week, Members of Congress sent two separate letters that encouraged the Trump Administration to direct existing government advertising campaigns to local newspapers and broadcasters. The first letter, organized by Reps. Dingell (D-MI), Upton (R-MI), Flores (R-TX) and Veasey (D-TX), was signed by over 240 members of the House of Representatives. Lawmakers said in the letter, “To get America moving again and strengthen our communities in the midst of this evolving crisis, we must be creative and use all available tools. Advertising plays an incredible role in local economies, and its importance to the sustainability of local broadcast stations and newspapers cannot be overstated.”
