WHY was a school teacher the subject of the article. -- cindi lou hoo 09/10/2020 10:33AM

Exactly. ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:46AM

Got your back on this. Wife, daughter and son in law are teachers ** -- cindi lou hoo 09/10/2020 10:51AM

My wife is a teacher. she was all set to go in with mask PLUS faceshield -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:54AM

Daughter and son in law work in a disadvantaged district. Neither -- cindi lou hoo 09/10/2020 11:02AM

It seems that, on this front, many who are protesting inequalities in our -- CAVern 09/10/2020 11:20AM

It is what it is. Most important thing is that people can -- WahooRQ 09/10/2020 10:07AM

I guess I'll put you down as "schools should be closed" ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:11AM

Of course they should. And not because i really want to turn my house -- WahooRQ 09/10/2020 10:16AM

There is a huge difference between colleges and primary/secondary education -- Hoo23 09/10/2020 10:37AM

Fact is, kids ignore social distancing measures and there is effectively no -- WahooRQ 09/10/2020 10:58AM

Who is putting >1,000 kids in the same building? -- Hoo23 09/10/2020 11:04AM

Yeah, that's kinda the point. There is no "kids back in school" happening -- WahooRQ 09/10/2020 11:38AM

Except for all over europe and private schools everywhere ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 12:18PM

You mean Europe where they've crushed their pandemics and have only a few -- WahooRQ 09/10/2020 1:23PM

And luckily all kids have zoom and microsoft teams. we'd be leaving behind -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:28AM

Well, ok. I think you have to be on the lookout for “media distortion” to -- hoolstoptheheels 09/10/2020 09:19AM

Are you really trying to be rational on here? ** -- 81_Hokie 09/10/2020 09:59AM

Again, what drew my attention to the article was FB posts where people -- CAVern 09/10/2020 09:26AM

How often, on this very board, do you see ... -- Beerman 09/10/2020 10:23AM

Hoo TV posts often. Yes. ** -- hoothat 09/10/2020 10:32AM

I think it is very clear that the article is tying the death to her role as -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:29AM

"lady dies from covid" is not a story that gets written. "teacher dies -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:32AM

So you're saying Facebook posts are not reliable? I'm SHOCKED! ** -- 81_Hokie 09/10/2020 09:59AM

The article is not responsible. the only reason it's a story is that she -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:56AM

That’s not media distortion. That’s media consumer distortion. -- hoolstoptheheels 09/10/2020 09:32AM

"Suckers. What's in it for them?" ** -- Blah 09/10/2020 08:59AM

I don't even need to read the article -- Beerman 09/10/2020 08:40AM

The issue here is that the teacher was not even teaching. but the article -- CAVern 09/10/2020 08:43AM

Sure. And I'm saying it doesn't matter -- Beerman 09/10/2020 08:45AM

The reason I think it matters is a ton of this crap ultimately contributes -- CAVern 09/10/2020 09:08AM

All is well. Nothing to see here folks. Move along ... ** -- WaxHoo 09/10/2020 08:28AM

What's not well is how the media twists this shit. this one couldn't be -- CAVern 09/10/2020 08:32AM

Agree 100% -- Beerman 09/10/2020 09:21AM

Not true. There are staff meetings involving the whole school -- WahooMatt05 09/10/2020 08:45AM

If the teachers and staff are being idiots about it, that's on them. not -- CAVern 09/10/2020 08:48AM

You are talking with people who all only think one way on things. -- ryno hoo 09/10/2020 08:56AM

The people who get sick aren’t always the idiots -- WahooMatt05 09/10/2020 08:55AM

I don’t get it. What’s twisted? The article didn’t claim she -- hoolstoptheheels 09/10/2020 08:45AM

Same context as the college football player death... -- Hoo23 09/10/2020 10:23AM

Can’t speak to either of those stories, but there is no narrative -- hoolstoptheheels 09/10/2020 10:32AM

Great point but that begs the question...why is it even newsworthy? -- Hoo23 09/10/2020 10:42AM

Exactly. it's not a story except to try to tie it to teaching ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 10:48AM

I disagree. It’s a local outlet picking up a local AP story. ** -- hoolstoptheheels 09/10/2020 10:58AM

The article labels it a teacher death. hell it had nothing to do -- CAVern 09/10/2020 09:06AM

Well, your first problem is being on Facebook ** -- Brown Water 09/10/2020 09:25AM

Thanks - doing a quick search I realize this guy posts 90% 1 line flames -- CAVern 09/10/2020 09:45AM

If you're trying to call me a trumper then go fuck yourself ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 08:49AM

LOL! ** -- WaxHoo 09/10/2020 08:51AM

But no outrage at your shitbag president twisting his shit. Yeah, right. -- WaxHoo 09/10/2020 08:38AM

My president? that's sort of a weird tie in ** -- CAVern 09/10/2020 08:41AM
