    In my little circle, this is the greatest concern: in the midst of thousands of conflicting reports, determining whose information is accurate and trustworthy.

    I swear, too many are so self absorbed that they would probably miss the end of the world.

    I believe the problem is what people define as accurate info and how it is worded. If presented properly even the lowly cold could be described as a killing or crippling event. I am 64 years old and have seen many misrepresentations from both news media and government so trust neither, If I am interested enough in a topic I will read 3-5 different articles on the subject. Usually each article is presented with just enough truth and context leaking in that I can draw a conclusion.

    Sharyl-

    Your new book is on my list to get. My family enjoys you Full Measure program every Sunday am.
    Keep up the good work. I really enjoyed **Stonewalled...**

    As a retired Chief Meteorologist / Reporter (25 years; 7 markets), I can relate to the fake news demands in newsrooms. I had a news director (ND) tell me to tease an ice storm would hit the next morning, even though I didn't think it would. You should have heard the technical director yell at him during our post-newscast meeting, protesting that the ND would ask me to do this! My jaw dropped to the floor in amazement (NBC affiliate, top 35 market). Did the ice storm hit? Not even close.
    All the Best,
    Mike

    I'm suspect of everything I see on the news media. The statistics are contradictory. I know of no one that has corona virus and none of the people I interact know of any including my doctor. What's going on behind our backs while they get our attention away with this frightful virus thing? Everyone is afraid of dying and can't think of anything else.
