From their own website:

Townhall is the leading source for conservative news, political cartoons, breaking stories, election analysis and commentary on politics and the media .


Maybe they are a little biased in their reporting.

How would your opinion change if one of your approved sources reported the same stats?

And can I have a list of those approved sources, please?

Ad Hominem. Assuming they provide the actual numbers, that's the correct way to refute.

“Biased reporting” means putting a particular partisan spin on some set of facts. Not fundamentally lying about what the facts are.

Are you saying townhall is fundamentally lying and making these numbers up? Because if you were saying, “bias reporting is causing them to misrepresent the relevant conclusion of these numbers”, that would be one thing. But if you were saying, “they are flat out inventing what the numbers are”, that’s another. And unless you’re falling in the latter category, I don’t know how this can be taken as anything other than good news.

We should all want kids to be able to remove their masks as soon as it’s safe. If we uncover evidence that it’s just as safe for them to remove their masks now as it is to have one on, then you’d have to be some kind of evil a-hole to view that as anything other than a positive development.

Anybody with a computer and a link to their state's site for covid numbers should be able to verify this. Hell, we had someone post our numbers on this site daily. I'm sure there is a dashboard where you can navigate for the stats you are looking for. Why would you think they are lying about something that can easily be verified by anyone?

Or maybe masking kids is simply stupid and you just don't want to admit to falling for stupid things.
