This is disturbing. One of the few consolations is that there are groups like the Press Freedom group acting as 'watchdogs.' I might quibble about two points. While it is true that the conflicts between police and journalists have been going on for some time, Trump's rhetoric hasn't just added to the problem. It has multiplied the problem many times over. Secondly you write "they've been failed systematically." Or is it that the problem is systemic?
