Please elaborate on how a 'reporter' has more constitutional protection than a 'commentator'?

A 'reporter' called for the death of the President. They have 'freedom of the press'.

Let's see you try it. Exercise your right of 'free speech'.

Please cite your reference on this, and how said 'reporter' wasn't visited by Secret Service. You can't because you really don't know, and neither do I for that matter .. that's why its called "secret" service.

I exercise my right to free speech each and every day, and am doing so right now. So what's the problem ?

Cheers,
MM

Freedom of the press is constitutionally protected.

Perhaps by joining FR one becomes an “Official Journalist” We could receive a special card saying “Journalist.”
