On the one hand, many Americans have nothing but time on their hands. With folks out of work, working from home, and socially quarantined, there's never been a better time to make a sizable dent in their book queues and catch up on the sort of analytical articles found here at Antiwar.com. At the same time, largely repetitive Corona coverage 24/7 carries the inherent potential (and rapidly approaching reality) of a complete media blackout on all war and foreign policy-related events. Whether intentional or, more likely, driven by ratings-based opportunism, the media's stoking of fear – that most impactful of human emotions – may lead a wary and confused public to laser focus on, and only on, Corona-mania. While understandable, such a state of affairs carries the intrinsic risk of encouraging or enabling bad behavior by the national security structure of an increasingly "rogue" American state.
