Typhoon Tip Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 1 hour ago, tamarack said: Maybe quenched your usually active sense of humor on this one? Seems more serious than warranted, even though the numbers here show a significant warmth, liquid precip and lack of snowfall for the few days running up to and immediately after the 25th. Probably a statistical fluke and if I had 100 years POR here rather than just 23 the anomaly would disappear. However, I like exploring wx anomalies (don't we all, here?) so I mention this one fairly frequently. I thought we had a snow fall, tho, the week before. Decent event in memory ( probably doesn't - ) serve. It was cold up to and during that event, and it laid a decent pack down here. It was that newly seemingly perfunctory early to mid December snow storm prior to mid winter burn out pattern that's ever year regardless of ENSO this or Polar that - get's annoying but CC ftl I guess. Anyway my point was gonna be, that storm the week before seemingly rubbed it in, right? lol. I mean, it would have just been better if the Dec = piece of shit, period.

Has there ever been an event that changed our collective lives like covid? Media is supposed to just stop reporting on the virus because it upsets you? A new variant is news. Sorry. No one is telling anyone to stay home anymore. I'm sitting in my office right now not wearing a mask around several people. Hundreds of people dying a day still. Antivaccers love to say 'we don't know how it will affect us' long term, but love to cite the vaccine's effectiveness and then claim it's not a story. Which one is it?

STILL N OF PIKE Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 News media has devolved into a business . Attention grabbing and misleading headlines to garner clicks . The local news is NOT at that level (Or close ) but the politicized popular channels are and as are many trusted internet sources outside of maybe Reuter’s . The Covid has been no exception . It deserved a ton of coverage that is not the issue , it’s the hyping and selling perspectives and scrolling death dolls for effect / ratings that has infected the “news” and does so no matter the importance of the issue . So things get muddied. If people can’t see that they don’t want to . We also saw a disgraceful attempt to push aside a lab leak theory to protect gain of function research due to the “ummmm we might have accidentally f’d up green lighting this research that may have led to half a million ? Deaths “ This attempt spanned from top scientific journals (lancet) to all news media . That’s a fact . It’s a microcosm of the “think this way or we will cancel you and or you opinion “ that has infected society and the reason many scientists who knew you can’t dismiss a lab leak theory didn’t speak up. Wether the lab leak is true (likely) or not , it speaks volumes (or should unless you don’t want to Listen ) to the steps that are effective for a media campaign to frame a issue and shutdown legitimate debate very successfully . It should bother more people . So the corporate media Unfortunately has little integrity and that is a big problem when trying to decipher information for a serious issue , we just saw science and scientists ..the holy grail of truth appear to say in a “unified front “ a lab leak definitely didn’t happen (and ridicule folks who didn’t think like them ) do a 180 and say oh ya ok that seems to make more sense ...and this seems to sit ok with people . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
