Bill Maher: Media fear porn has left liberals dumbfounded about dangers of Rona

[SAN compnerd]

Over 40 percent of liberals polled thought you had a a 50 percent chance of being hospitalized. Another 30% thought it was about a 20% chance.

It's less than 5 percent. They also have a distorted view of child mortality.

But what about liberals? You know, the "high information," "buy the science" people? In a recent Gallup survey, Democrats did much worse than Republicans in getting the right answer to the fundamental question "what are the chances that someone who gets COVID will need to be hospitalized?" The answer is between one and five percent. 41% OF DEMOCRATS THOUGHT IT WAS OVER FIFTY PERCENT. Another 28% put that chances between 20 to 49%. So almost SEVENTY PERCENT of Democrats are wildly off on this key question.

[They] also have a greatly exaggerated view of the danger of COVID too, and the mortality rate among, children. All of which explains why the states with the highest share of schools that are still closed are all blue states.

So if the "right-wing media bubble" needs to own things like "climate change denial," shouldn't liberal media have to answer for "how did your audience wind up believing such a bunch of crap about COVID?"

You want to talk about climate denial....Covid denial is WAY worse. I know a lot of Liberals who are in total denial of how covid really isn't that big a deal for most adults. They constantly parrot stats and info from CNN/MSNBC that simply isn't true.
