The Spin
Narrative A
Kennedy continues to receive negative publicity from the corporate media. Given the competition, it's ironic the Times is making Kennedy's health a priority — unearthing an old story that has nothing to do with his current condition. The best way to handle this story is to make fun of it and chalk it up to a smear of someone trying to shake up the system.
Narrative B
Kennedy can do all he wants to project a vigorous image in an attempt to impress voters and contrast himself with his competition. But his decision to hide his numerous health conditions — particularly the brain worm — raises serious doubts about his physical competence to be president and his trustworthiness.
