The USA media goal seems to be: turning a pandemic into continued mediocracy. Here's what we hear from just about any media portal:

"Breaking News!" Due to COVID-19 officials are formulating strategies for re-opening schools this fall. See our FB page for details (meaning: NOT!, but definitely more ads) They say, we are all in this together, even though our budgets are facing shortfalls (meaning: bend over here it comes again sucker$) Our sponsors, 'Buy More', have matching donations at the local food bank. See our FB page for details, now have a nice rest of your day.

The above narrative is pretty much what is read, heard, and views as the goal of mediocrity hopefully is achieved.
