During Sunday’s MediaBuzz on Fox News, a bipartisan media panel excoriated the “left-wing Huffington Post” for publishing a “ridiculous” anti-Trump article titled: “Donald Trump doesn't care if you die from coronavirus.” And after noting that the article “simply said, ‘Well, he has trouble expressing empathy,’” Anchor Howard Kurtz knocked them for suffering from a “classic case of Trump Trauma.”
