It doesn't matter. All that counts is that he makes some statement that the "popular opinion polls" show is supported by the masses who shape their opinions based on TV shows.

It didn't help when, during the "assault" weapon ban debate, every nightly newscast without fail showed a film clip of a full auto weapon being fired.

People base the "opinions" on shows like Law and Order. The rest is done by our factual MSM which reports about bolt action 22 caliber assault rifles.

during the "assault" weapon ban debate

The absolutely best statement of ignorance I have ever heard came from Detroit's WXYZ reporter Bill Proctor who was reporting on a shooting that occured in Detroit.

He said "...police are looking for a SMITH AND WESSON .45 CALIBER GLOCK PISTOL......

He not only said it once but twice in the 6:00 a.m. news hour so it was not a mistake of my hearing going bad........
