What's this?

I generally have to go to multiple sources

I'm one of the very few remaining folks in the middle. There's no news source out there that caters to people like me, possibly because there aren't many of us left. So I have to read both left-wing and right-wing media and try to figure out the objective facts from there.

I don't see clinging. I see declarations of fact in posts, when none exist -- Coach McGuirk 07/10/2020 3:57PM

Love you Coach ** -- Stork 07/10/2020 4:27PM

I've considered it and have said as much here a few times. -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 4:14PM

It is ironic for me in the sense that I have ALWAYS been a risk taker. -- Coach McGuirk 07/10/2020 4:25PM

This has the same problem as the quack in California -- VTSnake 07/10/2020 3:18PM

That last sentence is brilliance. -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:24PM

That falls under the category of Duh? The problem’s 90% of the media is -- Hoakie82 07/10/2020 4:37PM

Some of us would like to see media objectivity. -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:37PM

I am right leaning with a libertarian streak, but persuadable. -- HokieHutch 07/10/2020 5:08PM

Is Colo supposed to be my go to guy for “Vocid“ info, too? ** -- Hoakie82 07/10/2020 4:02PM

What's Vocid? ** -- 48zip 07/10/2020 3:59PM

He is the best poster on this topic IMO. At least he brings data -- HokieHutch 07/10/2020 3:58PM

Only your opinion matters it seems, you totally bash -- fordham 07/10/2020 3:43PM

I love you to. I didnt believe i am shoving anything. Just sharing and -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:33PM

Your stuff is very informative, for some it is not right to not agree -- fordham 07/10/2020 3:45PM

Many of us appreciate your posts. I enjoy looking at the data... -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:41PM

TY. I drop in data when i find to be informative or thought provoking ** -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:46PM

And I welcome it. Please continue posting. ** -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:47PM

Yes. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 07/10/2020 3:49PM

Just carry on. Ignore the grumpies. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 07/10/2020 3:34PM

Well said, Photo. I agree. I appreciate his perspective. ** -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:47PM

68% have antibodies. Does not guarantee immunity presently. -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:15PM

Have you ever noticed that C-19 is the first virus that we've been warned.. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 3:47PM

It might be that we don't have enough empirical evidence that has -- ElbertoHokie 07/10/2020 4:01PM

My point is that no one ever said that about a previous "flu" virus. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 4:21PM

Or it was biologically engineered ** -- TomTurkey 07/10/2020 4:58PM

HIV? ** -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:58PM

Good point, but I was referring to "flu" type viruses. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 4:01PM

Here you go. Apparently the common cold is caused by the Rhinovirus. -- Stork 07/10/2020 4:09PM

Good, now we have a test sample to follow if that's true or not. ** -- `lag 07/10/2020 3:43PM

On the flip side, people may not need antibodies to be immune. -- RoswellGAHokie 07/10/2020 3:21PM

Yep. ** -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:12PM
