Following night two of the Republican National Convention, Wednesday’s NBC Today kept up its portrayal of the event being filled with “inflammatory rhetoric” and “raw red meat” as correspondent Peter Alexander declared: “Still, the night was heavy on harsh rhetoric, much of it directed at Hillary Clinton....Delegates repeatedly calling for Clinton to be thrown in jail.”
In a panel discussion minutes later, co-host Matt Lauer fretted: “Governor Chris Christie at sometimes prosecuting, literally and figuratively, Hillary Clinton. And it brought out a lot of the anger that we've been talking about over the course of this campaign that is in the electorate. We heard it in their chants of ‘Lock her up!’ and ‘Guilty!’ Does that anger work at an event like this?”
