This whole TB scare is Media created ..into a Mass hysteria.. It was so stupid to see Fox News giving an aerial view of the Ambulance driving to Colorado. Y2K....Eboli.... ...
I agree. It’s a slow news week. Media (and audiences) needed a break from the daily routine of “3 more Americans blown up in Iraq” and “Presidential candidate X uttered soundbite Y”. I ride the NYC subway to and from work every day, and I expect I’m a lot more likely to have caught some super-duper TB strain from that, than any of the people who sat near this guy on one plane ride. For crying out loud, his new wife doesn’t even test positive!
Remember the aerial views of the Ryder trucks carrying Florida ballots during the 2000 election recount? A banner day for filler “news.”
