Do you think the attacks on politicians are partially due to the media?

The media commentators are engaging in much more tasteless rhetoric than was allowed 20 or 30 yrs ago!

I think it (media, including social media) plays a role in inciting violence of all types. Whenever you give hatred, violence and the underbelly of society a platform, you are going to influence those on the fringe to step over the line and get revenge for some perceived slight or wrong done them.
