I don't think that Donny's tone change, if any, matters as much as the tone of the coverage he was getting.

Media was actually showing some nerve, starting to hit back, and we can't have that. Now suddenly media are no longer talking as much about the facts of coronavirus and how badly it's being handled, it's all about Donny again. Let's be concerned about how he's feeling and thinking.

What utter garbage. Turning on dime like this from drilling into the facts about his incompetence to his precious feelings smells like marching orders from the top. Ah, breathe deep the gathering reek.
