Just because Fox is lying doesn't mean CNN is telling the truth. That is a false dichotomy you all seem to accept.
Also, lying maybe isn't the right word, because most of the time good propaganda isn't lying at all. It is pushing the consumer to accept your narrative using suggestive wording.
If you actually read what Trump said, without already being subjected to the MSM interpretation of what he meant, I doubt many would come to the conclusion you all have what he was saying or his intent.
I don't know if it can be done, because the truth is for the most part the chemistry that dictates how viral capsids and viral RNA works is the same as for our own biology; but it is definitely an interesting idea to explore whether we could theoretically expose virus to EM radiation at a wavelength that is harmful to the virus but tolerable for our own biology. The whole basis of cancer therapy is exactly this, except it is actually worse because we are exposing our body to radiation that fucks up dividing normal cells as bad as tumor cells, but we determine the benefit is worth the very high cost.
But it is a fair criticism that a WH press briefing isn't the time or place to be making such ruminations, and Trump isn't knowledgeable or careful enough in his wording he should be the one giving the message.
