China pressured the Press to stop calling it the Wuhan or China virus, and the anti-American press played along.

- China pressured the Press to stop calling it the Wuhan or China virus.
- Donald Trump at first refused to because he wanted to shame China for what they'd foisted on the world and it would help apply pressure against China in further negotiations. (And help persuade them to facilitate investigations, etc).
- So the leftist media started revising history and pretending that the term was made up by Trump, and sensationalizing Asian hate crimes, pretending that any increase in racist attacks against Asians were Trump and his supporters fault.
- Trump had denounced any attacks against Asians (the Press ignored that)
- A few of the crimes turned out to be hoaxes and most couldn't be verified (the Press ignored that)
- There was little evidence that attacks were up materially...
- And eventually Trump toned down the anti-China rhetoric.
- There's no evidence that the attacks had actually increased (or diminished when Trump stopped using the terms), since the Press had successfully censored reality for their CCP allies, and undermined the U.S. interests, the Press let the story drop.
