The people I named are Democrats, I don't see this as a partisan thing. It's a humanity thing. I'm simply answering your questions of who blew the whistle and how we found out about it.
> The effort by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s office to obscure the pandemic death toll in New York nursing homes was far greater than previously known, with aides repeatedly overruling state health officials over a span of at least five months, according to interviews and newly unearthed documents.
Sounds like this one got suppressed according to the article.
> someone who thinks this one got suppressed probably has an information diet that disproportionately focused attention on this screw up in order to shift attention away from their own screw up, which was orders of magnitude larger.
This is whataboutism. The article is about Cuomo's bad response to COVID regarding nursing homes.
With regard to obscuring the death toll, I agree, and Cuomo needs to be dealt with.
With regard to prioritizing this story against it's competitor, however, I think my information diet got the mix about right, which is to say in proportion to impact.
> This is whataboutism.
If we were just talking about Cuomo, sure -- but you brought up information diets and suppression, which absolutely brings into scope the nonstop 24/7 Republican efforts to use the Cuomo story as whataboutism.
