NewsBusters Podcast: Leftist Media Should NOT Pose as Civility Cops

Toning down the rhetoric sounds like the right idea after political violence. But nobody thinks liberal journalists like CBS host Margaret Brennan or the ranting ladies of The View are the role models for civility referees. They have a blatant double standard on who gets to savage and smear their opponents.
