He obviously didn’t get the “Zimmerman” treatment...

On NBC Nightly News, Brian Williams gave the story just 17 seconds: “In Washington today, police say a man with a gun walked into the offices of the conservative lobbying group the Family Research Council, and opened fire. He never made it past the lobby. He shot a security guard in the arm before the guard was able to subdue him.”

On CBS Evening News, substitute anchor Bob Schieffer offered 20 seconds: “A gunman opened fire today at the Washington headquarters of the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian lobbying group. The man shot a security guard in the arm before that guard and others tackled him, and he was arrested. Police say that the suspect made negative comment about the council’s work just before the shooting.”

[...]On both NBC and CBS, the FRC brief was followed by a full story promoting President Obama’s new deferral program for illegal alien “Dream Act” students. NBC gave that two minutes, CBS two minutes and fifty seconds.

The fa**ots in the media (network, cable, and print) newsrooms need to step out of the closet. If don’t ask, don’t tell was so bad for the military then America’s news audience deserves to know the truth about how the media is slanting coverage of news items that have homosexual connections.

Same with the blackout on terrorist plots by liberals yet such hysteria that the Tea Party movement was breeding grounds for “anti-government violence”.

The mainstream media is DISHONEST. A sham. Partisan tripe from uber liberal democrats trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the home audience.

Anderson Cooper is a homosexualist? No one at the network knew? Certainly broke a lot of lonely women’s hearts the day that story broke. Maybe they wouldn’t have swallowed his continual message if they weren’t so interested in him as a “hunky mate”.
