I can tell you you sound very biased.

In my own European country most people certaintly do not know what distinction is made by the health authories around "with" versus "from" covid. We also no longer have data on the effects per comorbidity. Broken down per vaccine or if had prior infection. Even speaking of side effects was completely verboten. Everything is kept very nebulous and I believe it is mostly because of incompetence, but also some malice and distrust of the public to handle the truth.

So no, any reporting that seeks to puts their feet to the fire and clarify their data is important, and if it gives someone clicks good for them. I want the press to ask questions, not just parrot the media conference.
