    In discussing Trump's "enemies" reference on CNN:
    http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/jackson-richman/2017/02/20/cuomo-someone-will-get-hurt-trumps-attacks-media

    Interesting. Suddenly these airheads are concerned about someone [in the press] getting hurt because of what Trump said, yet, when Maddona dreams of blowing up the WH, when Trump haters in Hollywood spew hate rant after hate rant or when a magazine cover shows Trump's head in the crosshair, I missed the concern about "someone" getting hurt. Did they have this discussion when riots were breaking out in DC or when cops were getting attacked and pepper sprayed by lefty mobs? Did they decry lefties throwing molotov cocktails at cops and chasing down Trump supporters at Trump rallies? Did they gather their panel to warn "somebodies going to get hurt"?

    The fact is, people are already getting hurt, and it isn't Trump supporters doing the hurting, it's emotionally angry lefties who these same pundits SUPPORT!

    Don't forget about the cops when Obama attacked them for "acting stupidly". Only a few dozen were killed because of Obama instigating BLM into a frenzy.

    It is certainly possible that someone deranged could take this as a call to arms, but it is doubtful that the person wouldn't take something else as a call to arms in its absence. I personally see no reason to edit our discourse to the point that nothing substantive gets said because some whackadoodle out there is whackadoodily.

    Well, CNN wouldn't be watchable these days without the "breathless hyperventilating" of their talking heads. Mr Cuomo seems to have devolved into hysterical though for this quote. Folks, unfortunately, are being hurt. By liberals, beating conservatives on the streets. Where is mr Cuomo's concern? Seems like perhaps mr Cuomo is spreading the code though. Fear the whatever, which then justifies the actual violence from his own support base.

    when the President calls CNN the "enemy of the American people", some right-wing wacko may decide to act on that claim and kill a CNN reporter

    A bit ironic for a network that offered a how to story on assassinating Trump and keeping the Presidency in Democratic hands.

    Which, if it ever happens will land said wacko in jail. Help me understand how you're working towards ending the violence against conservatives in this country today?

    Seems he is concerned about extremists acting out against journalists. Anyone who takes Trump's words to heart just might do that, don't you think?

    I'm beginning to think the left and their protests are more dangerous than Trump tweets. His tweets are mere words but the actions of millions protesting the government reminds me of civil war between the left and the right!

    Why would anyone do that? A mostly irrelevant CNN is more watchable lately than ever. Probably got a boost in ratings.,,,,,not from being a good station, but for entertainment purposes only. It's funny watching the ledge walkers.

    Could happen, but so could someone taking a shot a Trump or his family acting on the hate being spewed by the media and many on the left. So, my point is; why are they so concerned about the one & NOT the other? I mean, come on...they're still trying to paint Trump as a pawn of Putin, which in essence would make him an enemy of America, wouldn't it?

    Obviously.

    But, Trump's supporters fail to grasp that simple point!

    Don't forget Obama and his encouragement of violence against whites during the Zimmerman witch hunt, his AG encouraging Black Panthers to hang out at polling places and threaten people, and the Ferguson thug riots, and all the rest, and importing terrorists into the U.S. while deporting Christians from the same (*)(*)(*)(*)holes because he liked the UN's rulings that Christians fleeing his ISIS buddies didn't qualify for 'refugee' status, and all the rest of his violently racist regime, fomenting hate crimes, persecution of Christians, support for gangs advocating assassinations of police officers, ordering wiretaps on journalists, all the rest of the criminal acts too long to list here..

    they love violence; they're just throwing out more fake drivebys with their simpering lies and fraudulent 'concerns', and everybody knows it. They really are stupid, and every lie they spew just costs them more support. They probably hope the GOP and Democratic Establishment 'deep state' will succeed in their insurrections and attempted coup.

    That's a great point I was hoping would be brought up. Did CNN worry about cops being hurt during Ferguson or Philly or NY riots? Did they gather a panel to condemn BLM's "pigs in a blanket" meme? Did they worry when Trump supporters were being spit on, pelted with water bottles or chased down in the streets? Hell, no.
    But, now they are threatened.....and BOOM....they send out a WARNING because they're certain "sooner or later" one of their precious flock will get attacked by a crazed Trump supporter.
    Nothing but a bunch of over paid, protected, liberal to core crackpots, IMO.

    lol ... never mind the atmosphere generated by Democrats and their media fans, right? Nobody cares at this point if the hacks reap what they sow. We know you don't.

    Indeed. I would just laugh if their POS anchors and news readers started getting shot; they wanted it, they just think they were getting grubby lil proles assaulted and murdered, so it would indeed be hilarious if they all end up in the same boat as a Solomon Rushdie or a Geert Wilders. I wouldn't lose any sleep or shed any tears for the vermin.

    Sorry, but I just don't trust the media. When they lie, distort, and give biased reporting then I'm somewhat actually inclined to agree with Trump on this one, it makes them the enemy. I want pure unbiased facts from my news sources and anything less is not something I will condone or promote.

    Anyone following how the old media is attacking people on YouTube? Those with huge following and zero oversight other than other youtubers who can call them on their BS? More reliable "news" is coming from YouTube than TV.
