In the sense that "establishment media" is rooted in the liberal, democratic, and constitutional state (you know, the one where free speech, freedom of the press and and many other civil liberties are actually protected) and has a problem with people who expound or even glorify ideas that would seek to abolish such a state (as proven by history)? Let's talk about civil liberties and free press in Nazi Germany, I'm pretty sure it becomes apparent why a free press is against a non-free society.

Then, maybe it really is just bad taste to show up with a Nazi armband but then, in a free country, a free press can and should point out that this is bad taste and that, maybe, we would like to consider if we want to vote or otherwise support someone with this kind of poor judgement into power. It is not a rehearsed speech just because you dislike the message.

I actually agree with you more or less entirely. I only suspect that the motivation for making such comparisons is not always so noble, however. Some of it is just plain old smearing.

No argument here ;)
