See, apparently, we all have a Right to know the truth from Trump’s doctors, so, they’re apparently calling the doctors lairs, not trusting the science. This is the NY Times editorial board
The American People Need the Truth
The American people deserve better than to be misled about the health of the president.
Several days into President Trump’s battle with Covid-19, even basic facts about his illness — when he was diagnosed, how high his fever climbed, what triggered his hospitalization — remain hard to come by. The White House is being evasive and secretive. That’s nothing new, nor is it unreasonable to withhold some sensitive information from the public.
But too often in the past few days, the administration has appeared to be actively misleading the American people. Administration insiders are expressing frustration (WT -not one named source for that “frustration”) that no one even among Mr. Trump’s own staff seems to know what is going on. Among the broader public, anxious speculation and wild conspiracy theories are multiplying. The unnerving impression is of a White House in chaos. (snip)
On Saturday, Mr. Trump’s doctors assembled outside of Walter Reed for a news briefing, overseen by the White House physician, Dr. Sean Conley. Far from providing clarity, the spectacle was surreal. Dr. Conley delivered a sunny assessment that made it sound as though the president had popped out for a weekend spa getaway. He dodged questions about testing, Mr. Trump’s symptoms and whether the president had ever received supplemental oxygen.
The only ones unsatisfied where the lefties, including the media, who were hoping Trump was on his deathbed. And, perhaps they’ve never heard of HIPA?
There is a long history of misleading the public about a president’s health. Grover Cleveland’s White House lied about his cancer. Woodrow Wilson’s lied about his stroke. Franklin D. Roosevelt’s team covered up his deteriorating medical condition, and John F. Kennedy hid his chronic health problems for his entire presidency.
Because the media are jackals.
However sick the president may be, the truth cannot be more harmful than the thick fog of confusion the White House has created. The American people are entitled to the truth.
What the NYTEB means is they should be given the news free of charge, without having to do any work, because They Are The Media, you peasants. Even though they do all they can to hurt Republicans and the Trump admin.

The American people deserve the facts and the full truth about their president’s health. This isn’t that. https://t.co/XhzbzSfN8r

We deserved the full truth on Operation Fast and Furious, Obamacare, Benghazi, Iran Deal, IRS targeting, and Hillary's server issue, Jake: where were you?

Where was this “right to the truth” during the Obama era? Why did they have to be dragged kicking and screaming into covering stories that should have had them in a blood induced shark feeding frenzy? And, typically, they tried to bury the story after and/or defended Team Obama. None of them had any real interest in covering those stories, or other things like the details of the Waters Of The USA rule and the Clean Power Plan rule. So, right now, they can spare me their Covatrutherism.
