There was this one, the one where a congressman gave a reporter the finger, the one where a reporter was arrested for asking a question, there were a few others I can't recall right now.

I'm not suggesting it's part of some grand design to increase anti-press animosity. It's not design, it's a response.

As I said in may last post, the anti-press animosity will decrease people's inhibitions, where 9 times out of 10 the journalist doesn't get body-slammed, in an environment where their circle is telling them that the press is the enemy, now 8 times out of ten the journalist doesn't get body-slammed.
