[See NewsBusters for more.] The journalists at CBS This Morning on Tuesday examined the lack of civility in America and, somehow, managed to avoid discussing the attempted slaughter of Republican members of Congress by a rage-filled Bernie Sanders supporter. Trying to murder your political opponents would seem to be a rather uncivil action. Talking to CBS’s polling expert, Anthony Salvanto, co-host Gayle King managed to avoid the most topical issue relating to civility: “Let's talk about civility in American politics. They were asked about that. What did you find there? Because it seems like most people blame the other guy.”
