How is this different from when Mr. Reagan joked about bombing Russia in 1984?

In as much as Big Media regards our newly elected president as our country’s main enemy, no difference whatsoever.

Of course, if the same had been said about their god currently president, threats of hate crime prosecution would be well-received by the 52% who allegedly still consider him god, and the producer would have been fired yesterday.

Whereas Reagan joked about the evils of Marxism, CNN jokes about the death of an American president elect. Had Fox did that to Obama in December of '08 they would have been immediately fired.

Are you really that stupid? Reagan did not know his mic was on and did not intend to make a public statement.
