I speak with investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson about the good, the bad and the lazy COVID-19 news coverage. On the good front, the observations of former network affiliate news director Bill Shory. R Street harm reduction researcher (and former AIDS researcher) Chelsea Boyd discusses the science of testing and social distancing. How should Trump frame Biden and vice versa. I'll handicap the POTUS matchup with Washington Free Beacon editor Matthew Continetti. Italian tenor Maurizio Marchini offers another serenade of Florence (this time from Rigoletto) to lift the spirits of his compatriots. I'm taking the advice of Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx but also George Carlin and Mel & Max Brooks. It's not okay for Matt Colvin to arbitrage hand sanitizer but it is okay for NYC Mayor de Blasio to suggest nationalizing hand sanitizer producers? And, no, Farhad Manjoo, we're not all socialists now.

About The Dan Proft Show Podcast
From the publisher's feed
The world is a complicated place. You need someone to expose the political fakers, fixers and takers, and cut through the mindless chatter and misdirection to make sense of it all. That person is Dan Proft and this is the Dan Proft Show.
Politicians take positions. Proft makes arguments. He's studied the western canons. He's read the books. He's seen every episode of "The Simpsons." From DesCartes to Cartman, Willy Loman to Groundskeeper Willie, he's the Firing Pin to William F. Buckley's "Firing Line" here to spark robust dialogue and see who can employ the most arcane (pop) cultural and artistic references to support their points of view.
Entrepreneur, editorial contributor to the Chicago Tribune, former Republican candidate for Illinois Governor, and morning drive radio talk show host with AM 560 The Answer in Chicago (560TheAnswer.com). He speaks truth to his audience with popular political commentary and provocative interviews with deep thinkers and solutionists.
