needs to realize that what happened to Jamal Khashoggi is a threat to them.
The orange thing in the white house and those who are on the same team as he is (fascist dictator types) have essentially declared war on the press.
They need to start speaking out before it is too late. No more false equivalency; only one side wants them dead and it isn't the left.
The free press is in real danger at this point.

It's the rest of us who need to realize it, and start speaking out to defend the free press.

So, no, not all of them have figured it out.
Some of them get it, that only one side wants to kill them for reporting facts.

Will it make a difference? We'll see.
