CNN's Clarissa Ward, a foreign correspondent, served as guest co-host on Wednesday's broadcast of CNN's News Day. Ward fretted "people" in war zones have been "emboldened" by President Trump's "declaration of war on the media." Ward, expressing concern for members of the media in dangerous areas of the world, said to guest Chris Cillizza, 'I can only imagine what a person like you is dealing with. At what point does this become reckless or irresponsible?'
It should be noted Chris Cillizza is a Washington-based political correspondent and commentator.
Playboy White House correspondent Brian Karem, who has received new-found fame after his exchange with White House deputy spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders at Tuesday's press briefing, said Ward is "absolutely right" and talked about the trial and tribulations of reporters who have been jailed and even killed.
"Our newspapers after Donald Trump's election, we've gotten threats from both the far left and the far right," Karem said. "They are emboldened, it is dangerous, and the fact of the matter is, it is insulting to the memory of the people who have given their lives for the cause for providing information to the public to then be told you are fake media, you do not matter, and what you're doing is false."

LOL - unlike the liberal shooter that ACTUALLY tried to kill people at the ball park last week?
Is that what they mean?
The MSMLSD have been bringing it upon themselves for years now and now they’re simpering little children wanting their lollypops and safe rooms with teddy bears, puppies and kittens to hold.
Tar and feathers is good.
“Declaration Of War On Media”
‘Bout time! Thank you Donald!
They declared the war, and are pissed that Trump basically said, “Well, okay, if that’s what you want, let’s play!”
They expected a surrender. Dumbsh—s.
These folks better pull it back, ‘cause this guy will cut it off.
You aint seen nothing yet, CNN
You put yourselves in danger.
I love listening to this “but but the 1st Amendment” crap.
CNN you are not Americans. You are Communist As#H*LES!
Perhaps if you drop the “Impeach Trump because Trump is literally Hitler” schtick, and report on any of the thousands of important events happening every day worldwide without your obvious bias and dripping condescension and contempt, people might take you more seriously
Trump is NOT George W. Bush.....he’s not a punching bag.
CILLIZZA: We can debate collusion. They're right, there's no evidence of that.
It’s sounding like mental illness is a prerequisite for employment with CNN.
Sorry Media, it’s not President Trump that is putting our Nation at risk, it’s YOU:
“Naturally, debate over media violence stirs up strong emotions because it raises concerns about the balance between public safety and freedom of speech.
Even if violent media are conclusively found to cause real-life violence, we as a society may still decide that we are not willing to regulate violent content. That’s our right. But before we make that decision, we should rely on evidence, not instinct.”

For “journalists” they see and hear so very little. They do a bunch of interpreting, paying precious little attention to what is going on.
LOL. At least they’re not fake Idiots.
Not a word about their putting Prez Trump in danger???? The media is the enemy of our country.
It just doesn’t get any better than this...

Not yet. But we have about 7.5 years to go. Who knows what’s ahead.
This is a message to all leftist mass murderers that they are under attack and to take action.
That is exactly what this. There will be more leftist violence against conservatives and republicans.
