Opinion columnists operate under different rules. Reporters are supposed to resist being manipulated.

My comment stands: He's telling reporters they need to grow a pair and I'm stating that reporters have carried the Democrat party line since 2008, so why should we expect them to change now.

Agreed: Reporters are supposed to be neutral in their reporting, but that died years ago. They have an agenda and they seem bound to carry it through. Now, when one of the Chosen Few, tells them to stand behind a moving barricade, they get PO'ed. To me, that's just part of the price they have to pay for selling themselves and their credibility to the Left.
