This is how bad it’s become.
The Washington Post’s Paul Farhi reports that NPR is now offering one and a half hour training sessions for its political reporters geared toward helping those covering Trump rallies make it through unscathed.
“NPR wouldn’t discuss its training in detail, but Michael Oreskes, senior vice president of news, confirmed that the radio and digital news organization has made it available to its reporters. He described it as training for ‘dangerous or possibly hostile environments,’” writes Farhi.
