Sure media was meant to play the masses but who is playing the media?

It is wrong thinking that the media makes money. They already have the money. The whole thing is funded already. They don't need to sell commercials. They simply want to be the propaganda outlet for their own propaganda. They would exist without commercials which bring in tiny amounts of money compared to their war chests of cash. They milk the stock market for operating costs. They run the timing. They have snatched it all away from us and very few even realize it.

I don't think any of this is a conspiracy to take peoples rights away.
What I think happened is the white house learned this came out of a chinese Bio warfare lab, and they did not know what they were truly dealing with, so the best thing they could do was to shut everything down to stall and get a better idea of what they were dealing with.
The media, which makes money by being sensational, way overdid their coverage - combine it with Trump being in charge and they wanted to make it the biggest disaster possible to attempt to get him out of office.
Then also you have governor's who will get a hell of a lot more blame for not doing enough than they will for doing to much and you get the series of events that have occurred.
Yes, it has probably been blown out of proportion, but I don't think anyone had bad intentions, other than possibly the media.
