Aiding And Abetting

Common Dreams: Observers Slam CNN for Aiding and Abetting Hate Speech in GOP Debate - Watchdogs say corporate media is stoking racist and fear-mongering rhetoric
"It's horrifying to see our leading cable news network offering, as a litmus test for becoming president of United States, a willingness to kill thousands of innocent children," Naureckas argued. "To equate that with toughness and seriousness about protecting the United States is a violent fantasy of the sort that motivates the people who carry out mass shootings."

WAR !! WAR FEVER !! Nothing new here, remember what Hearst did in 1899 after the Maine exploded. The media is part of the CORP. War machine . Haven't you been watching the adds for the Navy and the Air Force and the Army lately? We are in a pre-War ramp up for the next big war. Oh yea, these blood thirsty assholes are preparing to send the Imperial storm troopers off to another BIG War against ISLAM. ( ISIL, Al Q Al Nusra, the Taliban whomever.)

I think you are right. War is on the collective mind of Americans right now and the GOP leadership has taken on this sole point as their driving force right up to the next election. Hopefully they do not own the majority, we will see come November.
