Yeah, and it’s the willingness of Trump-supporting media and associates to take their rhetoric to that level that keeps me terrified about how this ends.

It's amazing that I can go to an NBC news page and see boozle or whatever that junk link company is on the bottom of the article.

It's a free-ish country. I suppose that means that slavish devotion to the political class is allowed.

I'm not even sure if this qualifies as left journalism. Isn't the left traditionally anti-authority? Strange times we're living in.

reminds me of the nib cartoon Mister Gotcha.

Strange the media is saying the media is broken, and yet you participate in the media. Curious.
