Regarding the media and them feeding the outrage about the Sandy Hook shootings?

IF there was few minutes at the end of any new broadcast devoted to clearing up mistakes made during the show?

There probably would be NO news on the tube.

----------------------

During my bouts of insomnia I tune into the rebroadcasts of the days news, any talking head will make me stop and listen.

For the BS, the hairdos and to watch people foam at the mouth.

I also watch for stupidity. Then I watch some more and in the a.m. I do a little searching on the interwebz.

If it's there, I am a French model, right?

------------------------

Last night I managed to catch the last 5 minutes of my favorite stooge, Rachel Maddow.

She is still reporting that an 'assault rifle' was used in the Sandy Hook shootings, contrary to popular belief.

I flipped the channel to FOX news and there was a discussion about the father of a child shot during the massacre.

Bill O'Really (My spelling) was going on about a report from Martin Bashir, an MSNBC puppet head.

MB played a tape from a hearing where the dad was supposedly heckled by 'gun nuts' at the hearing.

----------------------

The tape played, without the cute editing, was nowhere near a crowd heckling that father.

During his testimony, the gentleman challenged the people in attendance as to why they needed assault weapons and the extended magazines.

He stoppped and said there was no one "brave enough" to answer his challenge, after silence from the crowd, he repeated his challenge and a few people spoke up.

A gentleman (one of the politicos) then asked the crowd to quiet down, or the gallery would be cleared.

---------------------

The snappy editing and sloppy reporting made is sound like the GUN NUTS in the seats were acting like morons and disrespecting the man/hearings.

There is enough of a problem with idiots shooting up public areas - now we have to worry about the media making up stories, fanning the flames and never being help responsible for lying to the people who 'rely' on them for a story.

I guess it's true that 'truth be damned'?
