Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly managed to anger both the right and the left after she tweeted her frustrations with the COVID-19 messaging.
“I’m so frustrated right now,” she tweeted, “that we can’t trust the media to tell us the truth without inflaming it to hurt Trump … that Trump has misled so many times we no longer know when to trust his word … that even I as a journalist am not sure where to turn for real info on COVID.”

Naturally, liberals began flinging insults at Kelly, accusing her of everything under the sun:
Stop the false equivalence, @megynkelly. We have both black and white Santas, but not both an American president who lies and a press who makes him out to be a liar. You know that we have the former, not the latter. One day, perhaps you will decide to not be part of the problem.

People often hate things they’ve been excluded from due to their own incompetence. She’s a liar & a racist & now hates those who caught her. She also knows she’s no longer part of the media.

We just watched an unhinged snorting lunatic tell us a bunch of bullshit lies and misinformation under the guise of being the president and you’re bitching about the media? Unless you’re bitching about Trump or Fox News, you need to just shut that down

But if she thought that she could turn to Republicans and conservatives for shelter from the liberal bombardment, she was sorely mistaken:

I’ll never forgive her for throwing up all over the punch line in Trump’s Rosy O’Donnell joke.

Playing victim when you clearly aren’t one makes one wonder about previous claims..

Meagain Kelly has accomplished that rare feat: both sides of the political divide don’t like her.

Why does Megyn Kelly even matter??

This mockery came after President Trump delivered a speech in which he declared a temporary travel ban from Europe. It’s likely that Megyn’s problem was the number of clarifications that needed to be made following the announcement, as well as previous allegations from the president that the demonstrably liberal mainstream media has been hyping up the virus.
The Fake News Media and their partner, the Democrat Party, is doing everything within its semi-considerable power (it used to be greater!) to inflame the CoronaVirus situation, far beyond what the facts would warrant. Surgeon General, “The risk is low to the average American.”

But it’s unlikely that Kelly is the only one feeling this way.
Footage from around the world shows violent fights in grocery stores over products like toilet paper as people desperately try to prepare for the potentially devastating effects of coronavirus. Fear and uncertainty are being blamed as the driving factors behind “panic buying” that has healthcare items and sanitation products flying off the shelves, and it’s certainly not because everyone knows where to turn in a time of crisis such as this.
