Because OP spelled his name wrong. Ellis Marsalis.

Branford Marsalis is his son. Was on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

It’s just all the media has gone crazy


Meh.

Great musician got sick and died. You are choosing to use the moment to call out the media for being crazy for saying his death was possibly related to the sickness?

No, he’s calling out the media for suggesting that an 85 year old that lived to perform, but had to retire for health reasons a year ago is being used in their rush to sensationalize his death as virus related when they don’t have a clue.

RIP to a great showman, frick the media.

Are they supposed to lie and say that Covid 19 wasn't a factor?

The New York Times reports that his son Branford says the cause of death was complications from COVID-19.

Yes, that's what many want. They are emotionally invested in their early take that it's nothing but a cold or flu, so any information to the contrary is discounted or ignored.
