“journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence that they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible.” “

What worries me about this whole thing is that old saying about fighting with someone who buys ink by the barrel.
However, this is a really good statement in an extraordinarily difficult situation. But it will fall on the deaf ears of the shameless Andrea Mitchells, Paul Krugmans, etc. while zero sits back and basks in the halo they imagine is over his head.
How about damned stupid. The term blood libel has always been a clear indictment of Jews by Christians. It has never had any other meaning in common use.
Using this term is guaranteed to incite...and to what end?
More tone deaf stupidity.

LIKE LIKE LIKE. ;-)
I am sure she will regret the use of that term - she obviously does not know the connotation of that phrase.
