Maybe what we need is the Volcker Rule for media.  If you want to be in the NEWS business then that is all you do.  No longer can the media outlet be in the NEWS business, and also the opinion, advocacy business.  Pick one, but the wall goes up between the two functions.

 

That kinda goes beyond freedom of the press.

Bottom line is people need to be left with the liberty to have it all out there and decide for themselves.  Freedom of the press and speech is in the Constitution to ensure that those that hold power over individuals and organizations via government can not wield that power against them.  The press and individuals are not beyond criticism themselves by government officials as long as its left at merely words.

They found two more packages today, addressed to Corey Booker and James Clapper. 

But, looks like they have arrested a Florida man.

Van had a bunch of political insignia (Trump and the presidential seal). Supposedly has a criminal record.

Big soccer fan too apparently (and very weirdly). Clearly a wacko, but I smell some Trump blaming coming up.

I'm going with double false flag operation.....

That van is way over the top - someone is trying too hard to convince you of their love for Trump.  EXACTLY what a liberal nut job pretending to be a right wing nut would do....but even MORE exactly what a conservative nut job pretending to be a liberal nut job pretending to be a right winger would do!

Soccer poisons minds.  Head balls warrant some scientific study.

I liked how my local news handled this. They showed all the usual lefty types calling for violence and incivility, including antifa's destructiveness - but they also showed Trump saying his usually jackassery. It was pretty fair and put blame on both sides.

Probably because most local news stations, the big ones anyway, in this country are owned by Sinclair.  I think we know how that coverage goes from liberal outlets.
