Episode 239: Grilling Joe Manchin and Vivek Murthy

Today on Polilogue, we go back to our old show roots and identify themes across shows for guests that were on multiple programs on the same day. US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy and Democratic Senator Joe Manchin from West Virginia were both on State of the Union and Meet the Press. And the two guests gave similarly vague, defensive answers after being grilled by excellent questions from Dana Bash and Chuck Todd.

Shows discussed 

• State of the Union on CNN

• Fox News Sunday on FOX

• This Week on ABC

• Face the Nation on CBS

• Meet the Press on NBC

Links and Resources:

• Study finds more active-duty police officers died of COVID-19 in 2020 than all other causes combined

• Coronavirus-sniffing dogs unleashed at Miami airport to detect virus in employees
