Democrats and Republicans are also divided on the news media. Democrats think the media is giving an accurate picture (64%) or even under-reporting the outbreak (15%). Republicans overwhelmingly believe (71%) that the media is making the outbreak sound worse than it is. (15/?)

this should spur some reflection among business/opinion elites who have been voicing the 11% view in something of an echo chamberhttps://t.co/epxMzcgPAs
