When two prominent politicians test positive for COVID, the coverage is going to, like everything in the media, depend on the party.
If GOPers test positive, then it’s proof that they’re an irresponsible cult that uses horse dewormers and hates wearing masks who deserve everything that they get.
But when Senator Elizabeth Warren and Senator Cory Booker tested positive, then the takeaway of the coverage is that Omicron is pervasive and it’s certainly not their fault.
When Republicans get it, the schadenfreude is not restrained even a little bit. When Democrats do, that just proves “anyone” can get it.
