    Jeet Heer Retweeted Michael Tracey

    There are any number of sarcastic and mean responses I could make to this tweet but, out of the spirit of civility, I won't. You're welcome!https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1012561956551741446 …

    Journalists obviously shouldn't be maliciously threatened, but let's be clear about something. The average journalist in the United States is in no way at risk of physical harm. Pretending otherwise inflates their collective ego. Try talking to commercial fishermen or roofers

        Truly profound tweet. A little reminder that ice road truckers is more dangerous than being Clark Kent. Michael... Probably one of the best thinkers of our time. His takes are so amazingly counterintuitive! He's not floating with the tide of humanity. Against the wind! against
