um...no.It is at least as newsworthy as all the so called “Biden is senile” crap.Alternative? She mislabeled it, just as Obama did stating 57 states! LolNot newsworthy that she said it, but that they did as well as the search engines.I don't work for talking point, the daily beast, cnn or huffpost. You will have to take it up with their editorial boards. I only responded because you found it newsworthy.You tell us why talkingpointsmemo deemed it newsworthy.Nope. Brought to my attention because the OP thought it newsworthy, other poster verified, and now that you ask, I am seeing it reported by The Daily Beast, CNN, and others. OP must be correct. It apparently is newsworthy.You were there and heard it?Probably. Absolutely true that she said it, but utterly fake news, in that anything trumpers don't like is fake news, regardless of the facts.It's fake news.Typical. This administration not known for belief or understanding the disease since the beginning of this mess.This is the crap that is deemed newsworthy.Conway Mistakes ‘19’ In COVID-19 For Strain Of Virus While Accusing WHO Of Not Knowing Facts
White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway erroneously asserted on Wednesday that the number 19 in COVID-19, which stands for the year in which the virus was discovered, stood for a strain of the…talkingpointsmemo.com
Stating there had been other coronaviruses before 19,
“The adviser made the slip-up while explaining to the co-hosts of “Fox and Friends” why President Donald Trump decided to halt the U.S.’s payments to the World Health Organization (WHO).
According to Conway, one reason for doing so was because the organization supposedly can’t be trusted to know how to handle the pandemic.
“Some of the scientists and doctors say that there could be other strains later on,” she said. “This could come back in the fall in a limited way.”
“This is COVID-19, not COVID-1 folks, and so you would think the people charged with the World Health Organization facts and figures would be on top of that,” the adviser continued.
So, since she spoke it and it’s true there have been any number of coronaviruses before this one, let’s call out her choice of calling the first one covid 1, she needs to be chastised! They assume she meant they were all numbered the same because she used covid instead of coronavirus.
Not newsworthy? A spokesperson for Trump Administration made a statement on a national news network using her alternative "facts". Let that sink in.
The President's spokesperson. Speaking for the President. And on behalf of his administration.
You don't think that's newsworthy?
Hypocrisy is thy name.
biden is running for president. i hear 24x7 from the left that since trump is president he gets held to another standard. this is done so they don't have to hold pelosi, schiff or any of the left to the same standards as they do trump. now they're free to dump on trump.
so if biden is running for the same office, he *will* get more scrutiny. also, kellyanne doesn't have a history of something like this - the left is just picking on this because they can and going apeshit cause that's what they do. but the mental state of biden is a legitimate question for someone running for office.
the left made it so with trump and has done everything they possibly can to paint trump as a psycho - go get ready for it to be done to biden. at least with biden we have him betting lost between words and simply leaving conversations in the middle of them.
i'm not here to attack biden. we get old and this shit happens. it sucks. but you can't dismiss it either and say what he is going through is no worse than kellyanne making a bad joke.
