The actual headline of Pew Report:

Political Polarization in the American Public
How Increasing Ideological Uniformity and Partisan Antipathy Affect Politics, Compromise and Everyday Life

Compare that with the NR headline KT chose:

Hard-Core, Hardheaded, Hateful Partisans Are Crowding Out Our Politics
The “growing minority” of strict liberals and conservatives is overwhelming the sensible center.

One of these things is not like the other. One is conveying information in a serious manner, while the other one is engaging in precisely the kind of hair-on-fire outrage & polarization the report talks about.

Note on the Pages sidebar that Randall posted about the same report almost 5 hours ago, however he linked directly to Pew instead of fishing for an article that has an inflammatory headline and is filled with emotional hyperbole.

It’s a KT feature, not a bug.
