It was of course because of the coronavirus pandemic but it also was about reality: business was dropping off faster than you could cook a three-minute egg and there were signs that things would get worse before they got better. If you don’t believe that and are denying this is a problem — yes, we’re talking about you Fox and Foxers — you’re just plain Stupid.
