Yeah, actually, I got slightly more angry there than you deserved and wish I had phrased the first part of the last comment differently, I’ve just got a lot of pent up frustration over seeing a lot of Messenger shooting recently.
But still, I don’t think The comparisons to or general discussion about 1968 is any kind of media hype. The fact is, when the Democratic party chooses to hold a convention in Chicago, and there’s controversial things going on overseas, and there’s a nominee change, that’s just way too many parallels for them not to pick up that thread
And it’s not like the comparisons to 1968 make the Democratic party look bad, they’ve come a long way and gotten a lot better. I don’t think that should be a determining factor and what the media does or doesn’t cover, but still.
