State senator Dan Bishop didn't like something the N&O wrote, so he called them 'jihad media'
And then he doubled down on the quote by nattering on about how his 'platoon' was going to 'finish 'em off' and blow up dams. Or something.... Weird how people might find those statements inappropriate and inflammatory, particularly from an elected official.

Poor Dan doesn't seem cut out for public life. He is VERY thin skinned.
