I enjoy Morning Joe with Mika, Joe and Willie. The historians really add a lot to understanding the news. Your doctors and public health experts have given spot on advice for dealing with the pandemic. During the summer Mika gave a verbal listing of all of President Trump's inaccurate comments on covid-19 in date order.. I think you should have a sidebar on the screen showing Trump's comments with the death toll at that time. Also, thank you for keeping us informed about the death toll even though it seems to have little impact. For so many the deaths are "Over There". They don't have to face the reality like NYers. I believe that fear is a big motivator. I remember the Thalidomide crisis in England when babies were born without limbs and other severe deformities. The man who exposed the fact that the drug company only tested animals broke the law but saved many lives. The drug was taken off the market. Focus on the fear about covid-19 and that the medical community (worldwide) is still learning about it's effects, short and longterm. Talk up the impact of schools. In Westchester they are opening and closing and what impact on learning and families this is having. Focus on NY businesses that have reopened and are beginning to generate revenues because NY has such a low infection rate. Thank you to all your reporters for giving us the straight scoop with charm and humor.
