What we're missing from the msm

I don't see any human interest stories of the sick and dying people due to Covid-19. I've been reading about them here and there are many interesting people, some trumpers, some not, who have contracted the disease. There story of how they got and whether they believed it was Covid or not, I think,makes for a great human interest story to watch. Growing up there so many shows that focused on what to do and not do, Smoky Bear, Ad council, stories of runaway kids, stories that focused on family, these Covid stories would stop and make people think. I think the msm is missing a great opportunity to get some human interest stories and a chance to change public perception of this virus.

Wish we had cable sometimes. We miss Maddow's cocktail moments.
