Rob Cox (Editor at Reuters) and Cenk Uygur (The Young Turks) both accused @realDonaldTrump of having “blood on his hands” for the Capital Gazette shooting before there were any facts. It turns out the shooter’s motive was a years long irrational feud and lawsuits with the paper.
I don’t think guys like Rob or Cenk realize that statements like this devoid of facts only deepen Public distrust in Media. When people see emotional reactivity from the Press without regard for facts or objectivity, the Public calls into question everything the Press reports.
Think about the implications of @Reuters Global Editor stating as fact that the President has “blood on his hands”

• How does his view of the President affect daily coverage there?
• How does this help with public distrust of a biased media?
• How is this fair coverage?
