— Put covering a presidential campaign on the long list of things the pandemic has upended. The campaign reporters who normally spent the years and months leading up to a presidential election on the road — living out of hotels, attending rallies and events and nominating conventions, meeting potential voters and grabbing drinks with campaign staffers —
Kat Stafford’s first, and only, out-of-state campaign reporting trip was to Houston for Super Tuesday on March 3. On the flight back to her home in Detroit, she saw a couple wearing masks and wiping down the seats. A week later, Stafford, who joined the Associated Press as a national race and ethnicity writer in late February, began covering the campaign mostly remotely.Others have gotten stuck even further afield.
Lately, “I started feeling like I’m out of touch,” she said. “I don’t know what’s happening in the country.” Berner finally made it back to Washington this past weekend, and hopes to ramp up her coverage — mostly by road trip, for safety reasons. Bo Erickson, who was assigned in 2019 to cover the Biden campaign for CBS News, followed the former vice president after the South Carolina primary, when for 12 days he traveled through 11 states, drawing huge, energetic crowds. Then the shutdowns hit and Erickson went back to his apartment in Washington, D.C., where he reports live from his living room.

Sorry NewsbySmiley about COVID messing up your job. You seem busy, though. ☺️👍🏼🇺🇸👊🏼
We've been devastated by poor questioning and shoddy access journalism.
Thanks to COVID, I have lost my job, my partner and about to lose my house. I have two young boys and no income. If you can help, my cash app is $athastings07. Thank you and God bless.
