I don't get how "we're going to look bad in the media" still carries any weight whatsoever. We're always going to look bad in the media. The media is irrelevant. Who relies on the MSM for primary news? People over 65.
Last summer when BLM was rioting in cities like St. Louis, Charlotte, Dallas, etc, how many people said "I'd never let my car get stopped and surrounded like that, I'd plow through!"? Isn't that what this guy did?
I swear, some people are like "Oh noes, we are gonna look bad on ABC World News Tonight. We better call it quits for WN 2.0"
