Is this the state of the press now?

No? What gave you that impression? The only semi-serious press I see about this is from the sports column of USA Today. Everything else – what little there is – is tabloid trash like The Daily Beast or the Daily Mail (don't construe this as me putting those on the same level; a tide pool and an abyssal trench are both in the ocean).

Just because something on Twitter says "BREAKING" doesn't mean it's receiving actual coverage. "The press" isn't a monolith.
