In colonial times the newspaper editor and the writer would have been tarred and feathered!

I think some fish wrapped in their own rag would be a good start.

IIRC, tarring and feathering also involved stripping the person naked first, and setting the feathers on fire and giving them a chance to run to the nearest body of water to survive.

No — tar and feathers is not good enough. A good hanging would be much better as a deterrent to the MSM jackals.

I'll bet in colonial times everyone owned a gun. There would have been no need for a list like that.
