Guns

A good guy with a gun saved countless lives at an Indiana mall on Sunday night, stopping a mass shooter before he could cause more mayhem and carnage. CBS Mornings on dispatched that inconvenient part of the story in one sentence and allowed just 26 seconds to the story overall. 

A mash-up of inane and obnoxious comments by Tiffany Cross on her MSNBC show of Saturday, July 16th.

WASHINGTON -- There are some 400 million guns in private hands in America. Possibly I exaggerate. Let us say there are only 350 million guns in private hands in America. That still means there are more guns than citizens in America. It is going to take a lot of cops to gather those weapons up. The next time you hear a progressive urging the defunding of police, show him or her these figures.…

The foremost defenders of undocumented immigrants at the national Spanish-speaking media, suddenly bit their tongues and skipped telling their audiences that the two Guatemalan men arrested in Richmond, Virginia, for allegedly planning a 4^th of July mass shooting, were, in effect, illegal immigrants who have connections to a drug gang that operates in Mexico and the U.S.…

On Thursday morning, Fox News Channel forthrightly informed their viewers that police in Richmond, Virginia, believe they stopped a mass shooting plot by two illegal immigrants that would have targeted July 4th celebrations. CNN, MSNBC, and the other networks have barely touched the story and mostly buried the illegal immigration angle.

On Jonathan Capehart's MSNBC show, David Hogg suggests that the Highland Park shooting suspect was a white nationalist, although the law enforcement spokesman has said there is no evidence to that effect. Hogg and Capehart condemn Mitch McConnell for saying that mental health was the issue in the shootings. Hogg also blames redlining for the insufficient availability in minority communities of…

On CNN’s State of the Union, host Jake Tapper confronted Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker on a common theme that even casual observers of leftist politicians and media have noticed. That is they always focus on tragic one time incidents like mass shootings, yet ignore the daily shootings in Chicago which cause more deaths on a weekly basis than mass shootings. 

New York Times columnist David Brooks is, in theory, supposed to be the conservative counterweight to Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart when the two join PBS NewsHour host Judy Woodruff every Friday to recap the week’s news, but in reality Brooks mostly ends up repeating liberal talking points. A case in point was Friday’s episode where he wondered…

With CBS Mornings trashing former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe as “a polarizing figure” and “nationalist” with “controversial” views just hours after being assassinated, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today were more conciliatory on Friday, remembering him as a “giant” and “popular leader.” However, they sought to tie his killing to mass shootings in the…

Much of the world awoke Friday to news that former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had been assassinated by a deranged suspect with a homemade shotgun. Instead of eulogizing Abe and expressing condolences to the Japanese people, CBS Mornings decided it would join the Associated Press and National Public Radio (NPR) in smearing Abe as “a polarizing figure,” “right-wing nationalist,…

The Washington Post noticed the attention gap between seven shot dead in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park, while ten were shot dead in Chicago over the weekend. But Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show only focused on the suburbs, apparently because people move there "because it's safe." 

Even though Highland Park, Illinois, mass shooter purchased his guns in-state, MSNBC's The 11th Hour made it sound on Tuesday night like he might have gotten them from another state where it's easier to buy guns with MSNBC anchor and weekend pundit Ali Velshi complaining about guns being brought in from other states.

On Wednesday night's episode of MSNBC's All In, host Chris Hayes and leftist journalist Aaron Rupar admonished Fox News for not covering the shooting in Highland Park, Illinois in the manner they demand. To Hayes and Rupar, if you don't cover mass shootings from the leftist gun control perspective, you aren't covering the story properly. Any solution other than gun control is…

In the wake of the mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois over the Fourth of July weekend, on Tuesday, CNN Newsroom co-host Alisyn Camerota proposed Orwellian laws designed to monitor and profile gun owners and bar them from exercising their Second Amendment rights. Yet surprisingly, she got some push back from a left-leaning former police commissioner and got schooled on how gun…
