Anti-Americanism

Does it exist on the left? Sure. Does it exist on the right? Like you wouldn't believe. I can confirm that this isn't an isolated incident. I belong to a mailing list on which a particularly right-wing member also hinted at executing this journalist. There's a non-trivial proportion of the electorate that would consider accurate reporting of American war crimes to be itself an act of treason. In fact, wasn't that what Zell Miller's RNC speech was basically about?
