Why is the media ignoring Trump’s direct threats to our Structure?
Donald Trump retains threatening our nation’s democracy in no unsure phrases, and but the nation’s media insists on treating his proclamations as spectacle, once they’re not outright ignoring him.
Take Trump’s fascist declaration that his potential subsequent administration would “root out the communists, Marxists, fascists, and the unconventional left thugs that dwell like vermin inside the confines of our nation, that lie and steal and cheat on elections.” Historians have famous the alarming similarities to Adolf Hitler’s and Benito Mussolini’s eliminationist rhetoric, but a Media Issues for America evaluation discovered that our media may barely be bothered to care. Certainly, evaluating the media’s protection of Hillary Clinton’s “deplorables” remark to Trump’s “vermin” remark is … simply go search for your self.
Nicely, now he’s threatening the media, promising in a social media put up to “come down laborious” on MSNBC for its “fixed assaults” on him. Clearly, Trump has no use for the First Modification or the Structure basically. But, can we count on the media to rally round its freedoms by calling out such outrageous threats? Don’t maintain your breath. The media has a historical past of ignoring his threats, in spite of everything. If solely his identify have been Hillary Clinton, maybe then they’d be extra suitably outraged.
