Christine O’Conner sent out a press release inviting media to Lowell for an update today. There is also a press conference scheduled for Friday, same bat time, same bat place!
Now if no one told you about the Swine Flu, and it spread unabated in Lowell and elsewhere because no one knew…hmmm….media not doing it’s job!
I thought we already had a prime example of media not doing it’s job here in Lowell or should other media be excluded and we leave the questions and press conferences to the Sun? LOL

Please, Please take Joe Biden somewhere… anywhere at all! Let’s pray Obama stays healthy. Palin is a day at the beach compared to Bumbling Biden.

If you take Joe to Mexico with you remember to spray the holes in his head with antibacterial soap.

I agree about the overhyping. Will CNN go into “breaking news” mode everytime there is a new diagnosis? It sure seemed that way last night.
