It's about time that these journalists who glorify violent scumbags are called out. This behavior is unacceptable no matter what your political persuasion is and leads to escalation and further violence and retaliation.
The only way to really change things is based on open conversation and engagement, which most of these people want to shut down. It undermines their movement because it looks like their arguments aren't good enough to stand on their own.... they have to rely on force.
