Jay Rosen, the NYU journalism professor who agrees that our “outdated Constitution” is a “[threat] to liberal democracy in the United States,” is relieved to see CNN hall monitor Brian Stelter taking threats to our democracy as seriously as he does:
I am glad to see it called a "hate movement," because that is what it is. (And I am a hate object myself in that book.) This is from @brianstelter's newsletter. pic.twitter.com/QweGr1GK8w

Real News, Mr. President: Calling out blatant media bias is now officially a “hate movement.” Thank goodness Brian has made that clear, otherwise we might’ve gone on busting media hacks for their hackery without knowing we were part of such a hateful movement.

So. Much. Journalism.
I'm so sorry this is happening to you

Wait, is that sarcasm? Pretty sure that constitutes hate now. We can only hope fellow hate movement victim Jim Acosta has enough room in his safe space for Brian Stelter.

Your bio reads you "critique the press," yet you disparage Levin for doing the same? Seems a little hypocritical, doesn't it?

Perhaps consider the “hate” is not personal, but rather for the partisan, biased demagoguery while attempting to portray it as “journalism”. I don’t know you and therefore cannot “hate” you, but I am 100% disgusted by the disingenuousness of overt partisanship of “media”/press.

“Unfreedom of the Press” is a mirror of yourselves and your brand of political activist journalism. Hence why you prefer demonizing it. You don’t like the way the book portrays your style of journalism? Try a mea culpa and change.

Is the press really so dumb that they dont realize they reveal their bias with the "Hate Movement " cracks, or have they became so arrogant they just dont care

Yes.
