Abby joins us to discuss the New York Times' pivot to full on covid skepticism, in the form of David Leonhardt's recent commissioned poll on attitudes about the pandemic, the corresponding interview on Times podcast The Daily, and a look back at two years of Leonhardt's downplaying of covid risk. Then, we take a look at the "Urgency of Normal" PR kit, a document designed to sell 'focused protection' to suburban parents.
