Media malpractice ???

ABC wet itself in their fear for Obama's safety. Those impassioned protesters are THREAT -- at least that's the media template.

Experts who track hate groups across the U.S. are growing increasingly concerned over violent rhetoric targeted at President Obama, especially as the debate over health care intensifies and a pattern of threats emerges.
........

Experts say a sharp growth in so-called militia groups that helped spawn a wave of domestic terrorism in the 1990s – and are now using YouTube, rock music and the Internet to recruit members and spread hate and fear - shouldn't be ignored.

"It's certainly a scary time," said former FBI agent Brad Garrett, now an ABC News consultant. Garrett said the Secret Service "cannot afford to pass on anyone," and he believes "they really do fear that something could happen to [Obama]."

Scary times, right ?? Eh.... not so much.

There has been no increase in the number of security threats to President Barack Obama despite the contentious town hall meetings taking place around the country, according to the White House.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs also said Friday there has been no change in the security precautions.

"We haven't viewed any increase in threats, and there's been no change in any of that," Gibbs said.

So, some friendly advice to the MSM: even if you really, really hope a story is true, check your facts first before you run the story.
