The Media’s Gun Control feeding frenzy
Anyone who thinks the media is skewed to the right needs to have their head examined. I have Bloomberg on all day here at work and it was all about gun legislation all day yesterday. I am watching KTVU this morning and the docket went something like this:
Controlling Gun Violence
Revisiting the massacre
(shooter name) Going over his background and how he destroyed his computer by hammer or screwdriver so nobody could see what he was doing.
Traffic Report
Gun Sales skyrocketing in Oregon, Washington and California
Standoff lasted 5 hours last night
Libertarians think Teachers should go through training and pack heat in school.
Weather
Gun sales in Texas WTF?
Proposing gun control


Really?

Is it this bad where you are at?

The same on CNN. I have decided to change my televisions at work to ESPN until after Christmas (barring a Bowl Football Game) because of the overabundance of the agenda. It is making for a morose atmosphere.

From what I can tell, the other media you consume also largely fits that description.

In your opinion. Fact is they have been more accurate than the corporate-state controlled media.

All the better to take advantage of. It's like they're in glee about it.

What we need is drone control.

The more they trumpet it... and the longer it goes on... the more glory in it for future killers in their warped perspective.

Something tragic happened. It sucks. But the media glorifying it and using it to forward a political agenda pisses me off.

It creates future copy killers who try to out-do the past nut jobs.

It gives the obviously attention starved the only attention they can get.

I don't understand the media. They brand anyone who does not agree with them as unintelligent, yet they discount basic psychology at what seems about every turn.

I listen to WBBM newsradio in the morning and in the car - almost exclusively for traffic and weather, but occasionally they manage to get out little snippets of actual news between their commie agenda pieces. Typical WBBM cycle

Rehash Connecticut shooting. Make snide gun reference
Air highlights of Rahmbo's latest press conference, where he blatantly lies about gun violence and vows to crush our constitutional rights.
Jesse Jackson Jr. still hiding in psyche ward from election fraud charges.
Traffic
Weather
Charles Osgood exasperated, whines about Americans daring to exercise their constitutional rights
Lovie Smith snippets about latest Bears debacle
Another honor student gunned down by thug with illegal weapon on South Side
Traffic
Weather
