I am going to make another prediction. Look for more anger directed at the Right Wing media. Look for the hate speech comparison.
It seems to me that what Fox News and other right wingers are really doing borders on a sort of hate speech, which is rocky soil when it comes to legality. When lies are spread and people's names are continually dragged through the mud, something has to give. Now, given, this country has seen a healthy and robust political commentary throughout its history. I am just not sure how much more of this style is going to play or be tolerated by actual main stream adults.
