andrew: there are a few remedies, but they're hard. i mean, facebook's -- you know, i talk about facebook because it's the biggest one. but all these social media companies are centrally built around emotional engagement. meaning that all they can measure is whether you click on something, whether you share something, how long you spend scrolling past something, behaviors. and the way they make things go viral, the way they put things in your feed is by gauging which things are likely to provoke those behaviors in you. and those things tend to be things that are twitchy, things that are reactive, things that cause an immediate spike of what i call activating emotion, or what social scientists call activating emotion, which could be rage, or fear, or lust, or envy, these things that get your blood boiling. that's not everything on the internet, obviously. my work is on the internet. this clip will be on the internet. everything is the internet. but the fact is, the way these feeds are built, they're built to incentivize things that spik

andrew cuomo. the democrat earning bipartisan praise. >> he's working hard, we are all working hard together.cles name him as president lance commanding and reassuring, his briefings, straightforward delivery of art swallowed facts by proposed solutions and cushioned by empathy. >> this is a moment that will change this nation. this is a moment that forges character. >> reporter: biden's breakthrough attempt from his living room studio not coming naturally. >> i'm finding out what you mastered long before me that the new technologies are quite effective. >> reporter: the effort is there. a happy hour roundtable with 2800 viewers, on jimmy kimmel. >> this is not the way to win voters. >> it is the way to sleep with my wife. >> reporter: the campaign says to expect more content like his coronavirus action plan and live tv appearances zeroing in on donald trump whose white house briefings are helping biden. now ahead in some key swing district according to a monmouth pole. behind-the-scenes biden filter would be cabinet, briefing him on the health and economic impact of the virus but without a p

. >> harris: that's new york governor andrew cuomo on the struggle to obtain enough ventilators for his hard of new york's top medical facilities is telling his staff to "think more critically." about those who should get the life-saving machine. "the wall street journal" reports this. nyu langone health told emergency room doctors they have sole discretion to place patients on ventilators and institutional backing to withhold futile intubation. this, after a detroit-based health system and sent out its own letter to staff laying out the protocols for which statements would receive its scarce medical resources. yesterday president trump said efforts were underway to ramp up ventilator production. watch the president. >> ford just announced a little while ago that they will produce, along with general electric health care, 50,000 ventilators. and they are going to be doing it in less than 100 days. as we outpace what we need, we're going to be sending them to italy, to france, we are going to be sending them to spain. >> harris: speed is of the essence here, as you know. here's a video i spok

but andrew is making a strong push what he is doing right now. the bronze for your boy but he's working harde. >> i left the house once, and that was to go grab food that was it the entire weekend. >> we can do this. i don'

it harder for him, in being a presence in conversation dominated by the hard hit areas of the crisis. like the white house or andrewery day talking about this? >> i think it's an important point. i think it's incredibly difficult to break through the news cycle right now. it's difficult to break through the 24 hour news cycle and now add on top of that the coronavirus and look at the ways that the coronavirus is dominating the news cycle. that was borne out to me the other night when i did an event and they hadn't heard joe biden saying anything about coronavirus. while that's not a statistical sample but eight people are eight people you want to meet. so the things they're doing are reaching as many people as possible, but of course it's early so they're figuring everything out but there's a question about whether or not you're breaking through and coming through the noise of the moment so it's all worth it. >> compounding that you have the states changing their primary dates as well. alexi, thanks so much. thank you. we'll be reading axios a.m. in a bit. you can sign up for the newsletter at signup.axios.com. tha

hard by the covid-19 outbreaks. that is your business flash update. scarlet: coming, new york state governor andreworm is still coming for the state. joe weisenthal is watching this grim projection carefully. this is bloomberg. ♪ live fromroadcasting new york to our viewers worldwide, this is "what'd you miss?" i am romaine bostick, broadcasting alongside my cohost scarlet fu through technology. also, joe weisenthal, we don't have a picture of him this time around but we do have him on the voice that very soothing of his. [laughter] joe: from a market perspective, this week was quieter than we have seen the last few days. interestingly, despite the selloff today and equities, we continue to see the vix decline. we were seeing huge 5% and down days. we continue to see a little bit of compression, especially with a cell, volatility comes down a little bit. that theit is amazing things feelt 53 and a lot calmer than a few days ago. i know you have been glued to twitter and a lot of people have been paying attention to what the new york governor andrew cuomo has been saying. it is jarring to think at t

and it's not hard to understand why democrats worried about biden, worried about his age, worry about his evident senility at times. wouldn't look at young andreway i wish you were our horse. the mechanics of it though, as "the new york times" editorial suggests, are pretty hard to imagine. were going to have a convention, they're going to be delegates whether it's a virtual convention or an actual convention. it remains to be seen, but the candidates who have amassed the delegates in the primary process are going to be the ones with people voting for them in that convention. and if you don't have any delegates, you don't have a lot of leverage. what would have to happen would be for biden to withdraw for some reason and biden's delegates and perhaps some of sanders' as well, would have to swing their comport to the last minute candidacy of andrew cuomo. it's not impossible, but it's highly unlikely. >> shannon: a lot of interesting numbers in "the washington post" "abc news" poll. and they come on the day that bernie reassures his followers he is not dropping out. could make things very interesting, thank you always for your time, good to see

. >> new york governor andrew cuomo updating new yorkers and alerting the rest of the world to the hard situation in new york state. we are monitoring every word of that press briefing. cuomo is clearly trying to ratchet up the pressure on president trump by asking for some specific federal actions. he says the fed should nationalize the effort to supply medical supplies is, because price hikes and competition between states is getting in the way. i can report from a very well-placed source that the white house has been watching these cuomo press conferences every day, watching very intently, and taking cues from the new york governor. it so will be very important to see how president trump responds to cuomo's call later today. you can see on the corner of the screen, there is a 4:30 briefing scheduled at the white house. governor cuomo also calling on the camearmy corps of engineers erect temporary hospitals, saying all non-elective surgeries will be called off wednesday and urging folks in new york city to stay home and get out of the parks. this has been a remarkable show of leadersh

hard time. we heard the president telling americans to expect a very, very painful time in the next two weeks were his words. governor andrew cuomo telling us that he's expected the guidelines could go beyond april 30th they're prepared for that possibility and the president talking about the images the country is seeing out of new york, of course the makeshift morgues all over the city >> that's right, doctors and nurses talking about going to work like going to battle. and described those who died in freezer trucks, nobody could have imagined that. >> thank you, tom. we're also on the front lines with the paramedics, the first responders answering the 911 calls and we have to remember they're often the first to come into contact with patients who have the virus. now in queens, new york. >> tonight in queens, the epicenter of the new york city outbreak, ems workers are the infantry and they are overwhelmed. the number of calls to new york's 911 system skycalls. this woman's aunt is covid-19 positive and has pneumonia.p th hospital. >> she's scared. >> i'm scared for her. >> with 20% of the ems force out sick, theing nearly

. >> listen, she does love you but andrew is making a strong push right now with what he's doing. but he's working hard, and that matters in that family for sure. >> i left the house once, and that was to go grab food. that was it the entire weekend. >> we can do this. i don't know if you heard in the closing you and i like to go out and do things outside. people watch tv for hours, they binge watch. they have everything delivered at home all the time and now they're being asked to do just that and they're freaking out. >> it's hard to just sit on the couch, though. i'm a recluse. i can sit on the couch a while. i do like to get out, but i'm a recluse. so all those things they were saying about social distancing, i was like i kind of do that all the time. you know, i don't have to leave my house. >> we can do this. it's not that big a deal. and if we do it for a few weeks it can change this situation. >> it can. and you know, something that i thought about today as i was listening to the president finally saying it's not done. and i was talking to one of my friends who's a die hard trump supporter who

governor of new york andrew cuomo saying, quote, this is a moment that is going to change this nation, unquote. hard to argue with that. and as cnn's nick watt reports, navy ships are adding additional support in the battle against coronavirus. >> reporter: with 1,000 beds on board, the "mercy" docked in l.a. this morning. kwir confirmed cases here are climbing. >> if this rate of increase continues, in six days we will be where new york is today. >> reporter: a second navy hospital ship, the "comfort," expected to dock in new york city on monday where the mayor believes more than half the city's population will catch this virus. >> we're going to seek to build another four temporary emergency hospitals. >> reporter: more than 500 now dead in new york state, among them a nurse at mt. sinai and an nypd employee. the governor says the rate of increase now falling. peak infection still three weeks away and more ventilators still needed. his advice to the rest of the country? >> get the equipment and get it sooner. if you don't get it now, you're not going to have it when you need it. >> reporter: detro
