    Gianforte's assault was thuggish and disqualifying. Full stop. But media seem chronically incurious about why they're so uniformly loathed.

        Dude, the tweet's meaning is perfectly clear to anyone who's not being pointlessly pedantic.

        Yes, the meaning is clear, but Elliott's point is valid. Tweet is an oxymoron

        I think most journalists have a pretty good idea that they are hated (until they're needed).

        They tend to know it in the abstract, but evince no eagerness to interrogate their own culpability.

        Now you're defending RW violence with RW framing. Shocking.

        If you interpret that tweet as "defending" violence you're either a moron or a liar.

        Interesting take. Why do you think you're uniformly loathed?
