While they are it they can turn around their coverage of Trump supporters, you know, all of those sanitized "Liberals need to understand why they are so angry" pieces. Amazingly enough, those reporters never happened upon any of the white supremacy guys toting military hardware. What we liberals need to understand is how they are recruited and what media outlets they listen to.

Republicans have been exploiting racism for decades now, and media are happy to look the other way.

Eric, we can’t take this anymore. The pain, the anger and fear. It’s all too much. Is it too naive of me to pine for the days of Walter Cronkite? I know America was just as racist then, but we didn’t consume media to the degree we do now. There is nothing normal about this presidency, about the extraordinary time we are witnessing and the passion it elicits. We need all journalists to stop trying to pretend this human blow torch is anything other than what he is- a disaster.
