FLASHBACK: Remember When Liberals Constantly Attacked Fox News Reporters? Where Was the Media Outrage Then In Regards to Journalists Safety?

This week at Donald Trump's rally, Jim Acosta specifically and CNN generally were the subject of an angry display by Trump supporters who shouted, cursed, and made insulting gestures, mocking the network and its reporters, as well as the press in general.



The press are the enemy of the people, says the president. Despite an attempted narrowing of that broad indictment this afternoon, it is a given in MAGA circles that the press are the enemy of America and of Trump. Or the enemy of America because they are the enemy of Trump. That line is pretty blurry.



Nevertheless, it's obvious that the already near-peak resentment among the Trump base of the hated MSM is reaching new highs lately, and the president likes and encourages that hatred. It's all the easier to get his spin and lies accepted as truth and transparency if the masses are trained to believe no one but you. It's dangerous, that's for sure.
