A Fed up Gov. Kristi Noem Goes off as Reports of Superspreader Outbreak From Sturgis Rally Go Down in Flames
2020-09-10
[RedState] As my colleague Brad Slager reported two weeks ago, MSM reporters were champing at the bit over the possibility they might get to declare the annual Sturgis rally in South Dakota a coronavirus "superspreader" event because mask-shaming and guilting people for allegedly being irresponsible during the pandemic has become the MSM’s gig (with left-wing protests, riots, and haircuts for high-profile Democrats being the exceptions to the rule, of course).

At the time of Brad’s report, 103 cases had been confirmed, which is a tiny percentage of the 366,000 people who were said to be in attendance.

Fast forward to now, and the mainstream media are eagerly reporting on a study they believe confirms their suspicions and which alleges the rally may have caused a widespread outbreak. Here are some of the headlines:

Badly.

Hopefully for them, not us.

Surprised they haven't had a 'Tons of food wasted at Sturgis rally when kids are starving in Ethiopia.'

'50,000 tons of carbon dioxide unleashed as Sturgis bikers swoop upon small South Dakota community.'

'Biker Clubs slander Native American traditions as they force entrance across buffalo migration routes.'

#5   Now they're just fucking lying - fabricating nonsense out of nothing.

Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is responsible for 260,000 new cases of coronavirus and will cost $12.2 billion in health care to treat those whose infections can be tied back to the South Dakota event, new study claims
