Episode 161: Demanding Perspective on Coronavirus

Another Sunday with Coronavirus-filled segments on the political shows. Today the shows focused on the federal response (or lack thereof) and the testing and treatment options that need to be in place to finally get a handle on this pandemic. Face the Nation also had very important interviews about the economic impact and the dire need to get support into the hands of small business owners and workers as quickly as possible. Oh — and for one last time — Happy Birthday, Brendan!
