@tmstreet The reporting about Vance have been lies, so I guess in a way it's bad journalism threatening his life, or his job I guess.

No, Vance didn't invent this stuff. And they've even lied about what he said. These stories about Haitians were circulating in mainstream conservative outlets long before Vance said the first thing about them.

Part of the problem is that we can't address the rhetoric if we're stuck with these false stories about what the rhetoric is in the first place.

But that's just life in these days. News reports can't address these claims because the news itself doesn't match what we see with our own eyes.
