    A serious proposal: All major news organizations should temporarily replace their White House reporters with medical reporters so that the daily briefing is primarily about public safety. The political reporters can ask the press office about squabbles with governors etc.

        Great idea. Political reporters don't know which questions to ask, are afraid to antagonize the WH, and many are prone to preening for the camera.

        I think you have that wrong. Political reporters are mostly only interested in antagonizing the WH (or shielding in the case of Fox), at the cost of not asking the important questions.
