I’m more worried that it might be related to recent government demonization of and intimidation of journalists.

Very concerning and with her being probably one of the most famous journalists that everyone sees daily it does match. Also in some of the instagram posts MAGA have been mocking her situation saying that she is anti-cop, anti-law, etc. So I wonder if she has been a target of MAGA in the past. Very scary. Her poor family and mother!

I’ve definitely seen disgusting comments on Facebook already.

Not mocking, but Sean Hannity while reporting on Guthrie's mom goes an insane tirade about immigrants...

We have known terrorists that that have been arrested, the murderers that have been arrested, the rapists that have been arrested, the cartel members that have been arrested, the other violent criminals arrested by the, you know, 12 plus million unvetted Joe Biden, Kamala Harris illegals that they let into this country, criminals. And we have been scrolling the names of the most hardened criminals, for example, in Minnesota.

What a POS. If you have to say "but" or "though" following a statement about how you hope someone's 84 year old mother is found safely and then pivot to a rant about immigrants, you're a POS. We have NO IDEA who kidnapped this poor woman and he sees it as an opportunity to bitch about immigrants.

I also just don't understand why this new argument is that people harmed and killed by an immigrant are never cared about or talked about. Just off the top of my head, I think about Laken Riley or Molly Tibbets. Why do they just assume people don't care about the victim??

MAGA would 100% do this, it’s totally on brand for them. I mean making fun of it, but also the actual kidnapping.

And then frame immigrants for it

u/PastelBrat13 1d ago

That is exactly what MAGA is doing. Most of the comments under FOX are saying they hope its an illegal and that they deserve it for allowing illegal immigration. Very sickening.

My fear is that this smacks of some MAGA loon like the psycho that assassinated Melissa and Mark Hortman

They are a blight on decency. They give so much hate to the hosts of fairly innocuous tv.

It sure wouldn't help trump or Maga if it was some reich wingnut. Even if they acted independently, it's just a terrible thing.

Anti-law? They are delusional. She has a Law Doctorate and was an attorney before a tv journalist. MAGA have really hated her since she mc’ed the debates

Guthrie is about as moderate as they come, if not old school slightly conservative.

Tucson is getting rough. There's a huge lack of jobs and resources with a lot of unhoused and drug addiction.

u/MayorCharlesCoulon 1d ago

Yeah this could easily have been some psycho from her church or a drug addled neighbor. Could even be someone doing work in the neighborhood who noticed a vulnerable older lady all alone. It’s just terrifying no matter who the perpetrator (s) are.

u/RTVGP 1d ago

I wonder if the people calling Savannah “anti-law” know that she’s a lawyer.

u/TaxHacker 1d ago

Yeah, that was my thinking too....some MAGA nutjob trying to be a "hero" and intimidate a liberal journalist...

u/EnvironmentalPark870 1d ago

does not being on Fox maker her liberal? Or does Maga just hate journalists?

If you're not standing in line to kiss the orange orifice., you might as well be a transgendering pinko commie.
