You know what... I downvoted you, but I think I misunderstood.

Are you saying that Zika and hurricanes are not really a big deal but are made to seem so by the press... or that they are a big deal and the press poisons people against properly responding?



That the press poisons people by excessive and irresponsible overreaction.

They are definitely dangers but instead of calm, logical, limited presentation of the problem, the press goes insane and turn people off to the issue.


I believe the second one is his point. But sometimes for some events the first part is correct too, not in this case though.
