This is the fault of the commie media, every single day they call Trump Hitler, a treasonous President, illegitimate, a Russian puppet..I am shocked that someone hasn’t tried killing him or a member of his family..and if God forbid that ever happened, the reaction from the commie media would be “Well its Trump’s fault, he shouldnt have won in 2016”

Did he have a MAGA hat and a van covered in brand new bumper stickers?

Yep, and of course it wouldn’t hurt NBC at all to close stations across the U. S. Smile...

Look, something has to be done. Perhaps you can come up with something better. If so, name it.

They wouldn’t have to close stations. They don’t own but a tiny fraction of them (and those through shell corporations) and all they’d have to do is drop broadcast network news to avoid a violation in your plan. Nobody under 40 watches broadcast news any more and broadcast itself is slowly bleeding to death so again, it wouldn’t be a significant loss to them, just accelerating what was already happening anyway. Stations are *already* closing and consolidating anyway, and those are just the affiliates that the networks don’t own.

An Accuracy In Media Act, as has been proposed off and on over the years, *would* do something about it. Lie on a news broadcast? You forfeit any ad revenue for anything until you issue a public retraction and apology - but it has to receive the same exposure as the original lie. Run a lie as the lead in for the 10pm Monday news? You get to run your retraction as the lead in on the 10pm Tuesday news and you forfeited all the money you made that day. For everything.’

This would apply to any journalistic organization, not just broadcast.

I would back that.

Perhaps preventing the parent organization of supplying network news after a violation would be the way to go.

Just take all NBC network stations out of the collectivel supplied national news business.

Shut down U. P. under the same terms.

What you said is so true. They are irresponsibly playing with people's lives. We must assume they know they are exaggerating due to hate and that they would be pleased if, God forbid, some moron gazing at them all day on TV is going to stand up and do something horrifying.

Now, if the vehicle has a “Trump” sticker on it, it would have been wall-to-wall news. <<<

It may have one by now...I hear Dan Rather and Brian Williams are both underemployed nowadays....they could fight over recently discovered "Breaking News"....../s

Some of the neighbor’s kids were shooting tanerite this past weekend. Shook the whole house.

Depends on what else was in the car. If he had used the gun to ignite the possible explosive powder, that could could a pretty impressive boom. Just look at the Bath, Michigan school bomber. Blew up half the school and afterwards drove up to the school superintendent in front of the school, shot into the back of his dynamite and shrapnel-filled vehicle, and blew himself, the superintendent, and several others to kingdom come.

Lots of useful information from Twitter and gleaned from listening to emergency radio...

I'm not trying to excuse the behavior if it was criminal, but details matter.

Especially the part about blowing up the Pentagon or threatening Trump. The guy is deranged but that hardly makes him a major threat to national security. You can't get close enough to the Pentagon with a vehicle loaded with high explosives to constitute a threat to the Pentagon, however big a spectacle you can create on the evening news.

No, this is far too stupid and unplanned to be ROP. Possibly a one-off Moslem acting on his own, but not likely a real terror conspiracy. Besides,it’s WV....not likely a Moslem.

Please.

Come forward about twelve to fifteen years.

It’s the deep state.

But then he escaped the jail in Aspen. Was caught a month later when he pulled an illegal u-turn.

He escaped again from Aspen and went to Florida where he killed the soroity girls.

He was caught again after a high-speed chase - but not sure how the chase started.

Florida stop for Bundy:

It was 1 a.m. when Bundy pulled out of the empty parking lot at Oscar’s restaurant on Cervantes Street. It struck suspicion with Officer David Lee who was passing by. Lee ran the tag on the vehicle Bundy was driving and it was reported stolen. When Bundy was arrested, he gave a fake a name and did not reveal who he truly was for almost two full days. Chapman was assigned the case.

A story I read about this said that the perp was going 130mph on I-68. Anyone who has ever been on that stretch of road knows that there’s a whole lot of nothing out there. Did he think it was the Autobahn?

The Pentagon is too big to “blow up”

Right, it would probably take quite a few bunker busters from quite a few A3s.
