MSM Hypocrisy

So, every now and then, Ann Coulter goes over the top, as with her comment that the New York Times building should be bombed.
Coulter had stated that her "only regret with [Oklahoma City bomber] Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times building
I tend to cringe. However, even though I'm not going to try to defend such a statement, I wonder when the MSM is going to attack the lefties who are constantly making comments calling for the murder of American citizens?
During the 2000 election, "The Late Show with Craig Kilborn" showed footage of George Bush while the words "Snipers Wanted" was superimposed. Actor Alec Baldwin appeared on "Late Night With Conan O’Brien" and called for Republican Congressman Henry Hyde and his family to be murdered. Baldwin said: "I’m thinking to myself if we were in other countries, we would all, right now, all of us together ... would go down to Washington and we would stone Henry Hyde to death! We would stone him to death! Wait! ... Shut up! No shut up! I’m not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death, and we would go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families." Al Franken told Matt Lauer on NBC’s "Today” show that Karl Rove and Lewis Libby should be "executed." The comment drew a laugh from Lauer. Franken's comments drew no criticism from the major media, including NBC News.
Real class acts, these libs!
