The Media's Response

 As the date for Election Day becomes closer, the most popular news anchors start shifting their focus to the debates. Donald J. Trump, contracting Covid-19 himself, tells the country not to be scared of the virus. However, the media bashes him under the assumption that he's telling the population to not submit to safety guidelines. Joe Biden presents an 18-month lockdown if he wins the election, though, with the circulation and production of 6 available vaccinations, this lockdown may not be necessary. For a moment, it felt like the pandemic had graciously subsided, yet that doesn't seem to be the factor. When the presidential and senate campaigns aren't on, which is practically always, there seems to be little talk of Covid-19. This year is a very unpredictable time in America, not just the pandemic, but the media is covering topics of little importance. With so much hate that's been piling in 2020, this presidential election could revive some of it. I hope the future is much brighter than what it is at the moment. I hope whoever is reading this gets to have an actual life that isn't chained to a mask.
