My guess is that outside campaign advisors told the Bachmann campaign to "pick a fight" with the media to make her look tough. I don't think those advisors meant that Bachmann's husband should try to pick a fist fight with a reporter and give a statement that a fifth grade bully might provide.
There have been a handful of other episodes where campaign workers have attacked journalists this year, most memorably with Joe Miller's 'security detail' of off-duty military who unlawfully detained a journalist.
