Rangeland – Ammon Bundy Name Drop This article from Real Liberty Media examined a Season 4 episode of the CBS series FBI: Most Wanted titled “Rangeland,” which served as a clear mainstream media reflection of the real-life conflicts involving Ammon Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).Several key observations and parallels were noted:• Fictional Parallels: The episode depicted a standoff between Wyoming ranchers and the federal government. Focus was placed on the antagonist, Will Dewey, who refused to pay grazing fees, labeled the BLM a “cartel,” and argued that the U.S. government had no rights to land outside of D.C.—arguments that mirrored real-world resistance.• The “Ammon Bundy” Name Drop: A specific scene was highlighted where a character explicitly called for the National Guard to avoid “another Ammon Bundy standoff,” suggesting that the fictional threat was intentionally framed as potentially more dangerous than actual events.• Real-World Context: This TV episode was presented as part of a larger “barrage” of retaliation against Ammon for his resistance against federal policies, specifically referencing the 2014 Bunkerville standoff and the 2016 occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.• Ideological Themes: The analysis pointed out how the show utilized themes central to the Bundy disputes, including the use of “pocket Constitutions,” claims of county sovereignty, and the belief that sheriffs are the highest legal authority in the land.• Bundy’s Response: The piece includes a link to a video where Ammon himself discussed the episode on his YouTube channel, bridging the gap between this fictional portrayal and his public persona.Vincent Easley IIReal Liberty Mediahttps://web.archive.org/web/20240418120506/https://www.reallibertymedia.com/2023/04/ammon-bundy-in-fbi-most-wanted-rangeland/
