The only reporters asking honest questions at these briefings are the chicks from OAN. Fox is usually good too.
I think this Surgeon General has done enough damage already with his “masks don’t work” (unless you’re a healthcare worker - then, they somehow magically DO work) tweet back in Feb.
I wasn’t that impressed with the guy to begin with. Then he goes off with “masks don’t work” and some other dooseys, and it’s obvious we have a very weak Surgeon General at a time when we need someone who’s a total rock star...
“PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor, who has made a habit out of asking outlandishly partisan and hostile questions at the task force briefings, asked Adams if he was aware that his remarks had “offended” some viewers, per her perusal of Twitter.”

Could she, ‘Yamiche,’ be considered a ‘nitpicker’??
The coronavirus pandemic has forced Chicago into lockdown, closing restaurants, bars, stores and even its celebrated lakefront. But the crisis hasn’t slowed the city’s devastating gun violence epidemic.
While crime overall has ticked down slightly amid shelter-in-place orders from local leaders, shootings and murders have remained fairly consistent so far, with the city registering more shootings in March this year than the previous year.
During the first weekend of April, two were killed and 18 were wounded, mostly on the city’s predominantly black and brown South and West Sides. On Tuesday, as unseasonably warm temperatures in Chicago rose into the 80sF (27C), the city endured its most violent day of 2020, with at least 21 shot – including a five-year-old girl – and six killed.

Does not speak well. Has a lisp. Keep this affirm action person away from cameras.
I could not believe, that at Monday’s news conference, President Trump told Yamiche Alcindor that she was a very good reporter. She is anything but. She is racist, sees everything in terms of “we poor black folk” and sees conspiracy in everything about Blacks and their treatment. She never fails with her gotcha questions and has become the black Jim Acosta.
Maybe he should have berated by telling them to quit laying around in their house coats/dresses and go vote ala Moochie
Fake News Media.. hatred of President Trump since 2015..
I fell in love with our Surgeon General the minute I heard him speak. Great soothing voice, articulate, interesting, not boring like some and...a NICE GUY.
Now, take the reporter who asked the question. Hostile, angry, asks ridiculous questions, rambles on and on, because she thinks it shows intelligence...it doesn’t, takes up valuable time with nonsense and is someone you avoid with or without a virus crisis.
I love Jerome ! He’s perfect for the job !
I absolutely love when the media tries to call black dude racist
It’s beyond hilarious
