#violence against reporters!
by Eric Berger, the Guardian“The US #press have suffered about as many #assaults this year as in the previous three years combined, the Freedom of the Press Foundation states in a new report.”
“When the president models ridicule and #delegitimization it signals to [his] supporters that journalists are fair #targets,” said Lars Willnat, a Syracuse University professor who has studied the impact of political #polarization on perceptions of #journalists. “That shift matters because violence becomes easier to justify once journalists are seen as political #combatants rather than neutral observers.”
