Herald opinion writers are journalistic assassins and hitmen

Your constant editorial drumbeat against Donald Trump amounts to a journalistic assassination of our president.

And you also run columns from hitmen like Sid Schwab and Eugene Robinson every chance you get.

I cannot wait until November when the true citizens of this country rise up and smote every newspaper and mainstream media outlet that is participating in this lynching.

Thankfully, Fox News is bringing us the truth.
