I have to say, watching CNN and MSNBC the other night was a pretty disturbing experience. I observed almost nothing resembling 'News' or 'Journalism.' For the most part, all i observed was a constant stream of 'Trump is a Nazi' and 'Trump is a Racist' rhetoric. That constant stream of inflammatory rhetoric has to have an effect on people.
In my opinion, it was all incitement. It served no 'News' or Journalistic purpose. So is there a line media outlets can cross, that results in the removal of claims to Free Press protections? What is the 'Press' at this point? When is it 'News' or 'Journalism?' When is it incitement?
What are your thoughts? Thanks.

I think you're absolutely right and let me add something to this. At this point, it should be clear that some level of violence is going to take place on inauguration day. Some people are inevitably going to die. It needs to also be stated clearly, this is blood on the hands of the liberal left and all who have incited what is coming. There was never any reason for any of it. We've always had (for the most part) peaceful transition of power in this country.
The blame for what is to come is the fault of all who have participated in ginning up this level of discord among the general public and they need to be held accountable in the aftermath.

They have no power, and once you understand it, you will laugh at them flailing away. They are gaslighters, and you can see some in the MSM are too.
I disagree. This kind of incitement is very dangerous and effective. People can get hurt. There are many Democrats out there who feel they should act against such perceived 'Trump Evil.' The Democrats really do need to tone down the rhetoric.
Dude, the only reason it works and they can get away with it is------> most people do not know what they are doing! TELL the people, show them! The left knows it is lying, they just keep saying it so it becomes some peoples reality. I am not suggesting you don't set them straight, but I am suggesting while you are setting whomever they are lying to straight, you laugh at them!
Why?
Because if WE LAUGH at them, that becomes reality and everybody else (but them) will laugh with us at their incompetence!
Sorry, i just can't find it funny at all. Many CNN and MSNBC viewers will now feel they have to act against the 'Racist Hitler' Trump. I fear for what some will do. I think CNN and MSNBC have crossed a line.
Well then my friend, you should have woke up long ago because this has been going on for years. The only reason it has come to such a crescendo, is because America stood up and basically said that we don't believe the left anymore. The left is in a PANIC, so they are getting more, and more shrill.
Did you even read the link? If you didn't, I promise it will teach you something, and it takes 2 min to read.

I get you are upset, I really, really, do. Is it a laughing matter? Well NO, but YES!
NO---------> Because the left is actually trying to subvert America through lies, and get their way.
YES-------> Because they have played this card so much, it is no longer working except with their most ardent....brainwashed.....supporters, as seen by the election outcomes across the country.
My friend......THEY HAVE NO POWER in the feds, and LITTLE POWER in the states! Sooooooooooooooo, until Friday when Trump actually takes power, MAKE FUN OF THEIR CRYING ASSES! We don't have to defend anything, because he hasn't done anything, lol.
Trust me, try hard to laugh till Friday, because after that it is going to get serious! If you think they are shrill and crazy now, wait till he wants to give American parents vouchers for their children to go to school, lol! (ok, that is serious, I shouldn't have said LOL, but I am thinking about their reaction) You/we/us might have to give 25% of the leftists mouth to mouth resuscitation, as they have massive coronaries in the streets of our cities!
