Social media storm erupts after CNN puts Greta Thunberg on coronavirus panel: report

An upcoming CNN town hall on the coronavirus pandemic will feature 17-year-old Greta Thunberg alongside a panel of medical experts.

The program, “Coronavirus Facts and Fears,” also includes CNN broadcaster Sanjay Gupta, 50, former Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, 71 and former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Richard Besser, 60. CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, 52, will host alongside Gupta.

However, social media watchdogs are foaming at the mouth over the choice to place a teen climate activist on a panel with public health experts.

Actually, the AVERAGE age is 50 ... so maybe that will work out).

(P.S. Without Greta, the average age would be 58+) ...

 

[athenken]

So, her sole purpose for being on the panel is to pull the average age down. At least it is something she is qualified to do.

 

[nonaeroterraqueous]

She was unqualified to opine on the environment, also. At least her situation isn't getting any worse.

The young often have different perspectives than the aged ...

Yes they do.. Often one that is naïve and unrealistic but emotionally satisfying to a certain segment of the populace that finds reason, factual evidence and experience less important than their feelings.

One more reason to consider CNN a joke. Not that there were not already any overly sufficient quantity of such reasons.

The young often have different perspectives than the aged ...

Yes, since she is well spoken, comfortable in public and informed why not get the perspective of youth? What is the big deal?

Considering her experience on the matter
and age
usually not a reliable source
but, right in line with CNN.

Informed on what? What her handlers want her to say?

 

[Akita Suggagaki]

Will you be listening? I suspect not so dont be concerned.

 

[Arcangl86]

Would any of you watch this panel if Greta wasn't on it?

 

[Akita Suggagaki]

I'd rather watch Amanpuor & Company on PBS.

I'd trust Greta before Trump any day ...

I'd trust Greta before Trump any day ...

Yup since she's 17 and has been involved in the EOC and CDC and had months of experts giving her their findings and ideas on how to combat this virus. I'm sure she's a paragon of knowledge and understands all the complexities because shes been at the table.

About what exactly? She's good at sharing her feelinga. She may be truthful when sharing her feelings and what she believes. But that doesn't mean she has any real idea what she's talking about.

I can't speak for every conservative but I certainly am an advocate( Hardly consider myself a champion) for individual rights. What does that have to do with my noticing that emotionally driven, inexperienced people often act and speak irrationally?
