The Observation Deck

A Nasty Surprise For Lakewood Residents

New "Pro-Covid-19" -- Fake Newspaper.

As a Lakewood resident you may have received a copy of the "West Shore Press" -- another fake "newspaper".

This may be a pre-election stunt, however, its reporting content is both erroneous, deceiving, and pretty dangerous when it comes to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Quoting from its front-page story:

"[...] the major crisis seems to be over as Cuyahoga County has dramatically dropped the number of cases and deaths over the month[...]"

"Deaths from positive Covid-19 cases are a fraction of what they were in April and May."

The opinion article on page 2 is also ill-informed, erroneous, and dismissive of healthcare risks associated with Covid-19. Dangerously so!

Please take a close look at what you have received. This is on the "sicker" side of things.

The message is to normalize Covid-19. One of the sickest things that I've ever received at home.

Messaging take away: --Don't worry, be happy -- isn't it about to time to relax and kiss Covid-19 on the lips.

Here's A Good One For You

"# 1 Media" is the only media company in the world without a world wide web URL.

I have heard that this paper is produced by Tony George, whose restaurant and bar business was impacted by Covid

That piece of fish wrap was put out by Tony George, the homophobic, science denying, vexatious litigating owner of the Harry Buffalo and various other NEO restaurants, including the infamous Town Hall.

George sued the State if Ohio over pandemic restrictions that closed bars and restaurants because he hated having no money coming in.

He and his son at Town Hall give zero füx about anyone but themselves and money.

Town Hall was the subject of a wild Facebook “fight” after servers became infected with Covid but were told to continue working and “keep quiet.” The Georges claim Covid is “no big deal” and the pandemic is media hype. The bulk of the comments were negative towards the Georges with most saying they will never patronize a George property.

I could go on about how despicable Tony George is but it’s all online - just google him for a gander at a self-centered, sorry excuse for a human.

It was in another thread, but...
Ding ding ding.

But if any elected officials were involved, to quote Trump, "Get 'em outta here."

Somebody keep one for me, or take JPGs. I feel left out.
