Serious question here. What are the liability laws like in the US for producers of propaganda? Can you hold say inforwars or brietbart (used as proxies here) liable if they insight or inflame this sort of person to go on a rampage?
You could easily prove in a court of law that what they peddle is not factual so I don't see how they can't have some liability. Freedom of speech is freedom to speak, not freedom from consequences.
