It cites a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >media study claiming overwhelmingly negative coverage<\/a> of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as context for this critique.<\/p>\n<p>The column concludes that whether or not Tapper personally endorses such language, the media\u2019s sustained hostility has helped create a violent and polarized atmosphere for which the press bears responsibility.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes the talking heads in the establishment media will say the thing themselves.<\/p>\n<p>When they want plausible deniability, however, they will interview a guest who will say the thing for them.<\/p>\n<p>Friday on CNN&rsquo;s &ldquo;The Lead with Jake Tapper,&rdquo; host and propagandist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/even-jake-tapper-stunned-anti-ice-conspiracy-theorist-suggests-putting-people-ovens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jake Tapper<\/a> interviewed Jamie Schwesnedl, a Minnesota bookstore co-owner and an unhinged leftist &mdash; is there another kind?

Recall, for instance, that the establishment propagandist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/lara-trump-sets-record-straight-jake-tapper-said-apologized-infamous-interview-incident\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">actively covered up<\/a> former President Joe Biden&rsquo;s mental decline and then, after Biden left office, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/jake-tapper-wants-praise-exposing-biden-cover-look-just-last-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">co-authored a book<\/a> that purported to expose that same cover-up.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Tapper allowed Schwesnedl to speak uninterrupted for more than 20 seconds after the guest uttered the phrase &ldquo;concentration camp.&rdquo; Thus, the host&rsquo;s objection sounded more like a CYA-type legal note than an actual disagreement.<\/p>\n<p>The vile Schwesnedl continued.<\/p>\n<p>First, the guest made the aforementioned references to Fort Snelling and Alligator Alcatraz.<\/p>\n<p>Then, he made the reckless and once-unthinkable Holocaust allusion.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Not saying they&rsquo;re Dachau,&rdquo; Schwesnedl said. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not saying they&rsquo;re putting people in ovens &mdash; yet.

After all, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/gotten-worse-new-mrc-study-shows-media-bias-trump-hit-new-high-9-10-times\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent study<\/a> rated the establishment networks&rsquo; on-air coverage of ICE as 93 percent negative.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, what did Schwesnedl say that Democrats and their media minions have not said about President Donald Trump for more than a decade? How many times have they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/fetterman-know-love-people-voted-trump-not-fascists-trying-destroy-constitution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">called<\/a> Trump and his allies &ldquo;Nazis&rdquo; or &ldquo;fascists&rdquo;?

Deep down, he might not even agree with it. But he and the rest of the lying media have nonetheless gotten precisely the violent situation they have spent years fomenting.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey==typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts={ \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs=[ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i=0; i <inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
