Media Matters has the transcript of Fox News Military analysis Col. Hunt stating that the federal judge that ordered the release of the Abu Ghraib torture photos should be drawn and quartered.
I thought threatening federal judges is a crime. If it is not it should be. Living and practicing law in Chicago, I am all too familiar with the tragedy that occurred when a federal judge's family was murdered by someone whose threats were not taken seriously.
I do not want to sound like an alarmist, but I certainly hope Judge Hellerstein is not taking any chances and the federal marshalls are protecting him and his family. Although I don't believe Col. Hunt would resort to violence, the ilk that listen to O'Reilly and Fox News in general I am not so sure of. This kind of inflamatory rhetoric should not be condoned.
Who should we contact to voice our concerns over this? The FCC? FBI? Do we have any standing to report this activity?
