The Clown Car Network will host a town hall “panel of coronavirus experts,” including a seventeen-year-old ‘climate change activist,’ tomorrow evening.
Next, CNN will feature The Little Rascals — Darla, Alfalfa and Spanky — weighing in on whether the Fed should raise interest rates 🙂

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….
CNN’s social media was soon served with an onslaught of virtual eye-rolls.
“What place does Greta Thunberg have in this town hall?” asks Twitter rabble rouser Yashar Ali to his 618,000 followers. His rhetorical question was liked by more than 12,000 since this morning.
Her name is a top trending term on Twitter, with some 30,000 mentions on the platform in just a few hours….
“Greta Thunberg? Now, she’s a COVID expert? @CNN is a joke!” reads a top response to the network’s Wednesday announcement.
“Not picking on the kid,” said another. “Picking on a ‘news’ network for featuring a child to inform the public.”….
To be fair, Gerta’s expertise in epidemiology rivals her expertise in climate science.
I’m sure that Greta is on panel for;
1. For the Children
2. Airplay in Europe
3. Discuss that Actions for virus can be taken for Climate Change.
Regarding last, a new org., Climate Power 2020, was established May 13. Board members include John Podesta, Stacey Abrams, Harry Reid, John Kerry and more. Press Release is worth a read. Funny, it says it’s a National Org. with a focus on 8 States (all swing States).
