    The Spin

    Left narrative

    DeSantis will do anything -- including scold high school students -- to make a point about COVID. Cases may be falling, but there's clear evidence that masks work - contrary to DeSantis' misguided beliefs - and it's essential to continue using them until we are fully out of the pandemic.

    CNN

    Right narrative

    The left have cooked up a media storm for nothing and, as usual, are highly hypocritical; where were the masks during Biden's mediocre State-of-the-Union address? Children and students are the ultimate victims of COVID hysteria and senseless government-imposed restrictions. This must end.
