And the nation was on pace to administer its 100 millionth dose of vaccine as soon as Thursday. The fragmented media landscape makes it more difficult for Biden to reach people, Zelizer said, but that may be beside the point.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx – The editor of the Corpus Christi Caller-Times clapped back at readers for calling a photo taken by one of her photographers “fake," when it later turned out to be something real. A photo of Bob Hall Pier, which was closed to the public due to coronavirus concerns, was taken by photographer Courtney Sacco. The clouds were positioned differently, and people who say they were at the pier say the conditions were drastically different compared to the photos. Sacco, a longtime Corpus Christi resident, was threatened via phone calls and social media messages. Corpus Christi Caller-Times, owned by USA Today, has an ethics policy which Cavazos briefly stated: “We don’t break the law to get information.
