I think the issue is, that sort of raises the question of who does & doesn't count as "ordinary" right?
Populists should represent the interests of ordinary people. If people are excluded because of their race or religion, it's not populism

Sure. But the press has a responsibility to modify these "populists" appropriately if their populism is defined by racism/xenophobia

Problem is, I suspect on some level lots of the press implicitly agree with white nationalists as to who actually is an "ordinary" American
-
Which is then reflected in the tone and content of their political coverage
