Katie Couric Goes 'Under the Gun' to Blast Firearms in New Documentary
newsbusters.org ^ | 5/10/2016 | Randy Hall

Former ABC, CBS and NBC anchor Katie Couric takes on the National Rifle Association and other Second Amendment supporters in a new film entitled Under the Gun, which will debut at 8 p.m. on Sunday, May 15, on the Epix pay cable channel.

Currently an anchor for Yahoo! Google News, Couric is an executive producer and narrator of the documentary, which -- according to the movie's website -- “examines the events and people who have kept the gun debate fierce and the progress slow, even as gun deaths and mass shootings continue to increase.”

In case there was any inkling that the liberal activist has gone “fair and balanced,” the website also states:

Through the lens of families impacted by the mass shootings in Newtown, Aurora, Isla Vista and Tucson, as well as those who experience daily gun violence in Chicago, the documentary looks at why politicians are finding it difficult to act and what is being done at the state and local levels.

The film is executive produced and narrated by Katie Couric and directed by Stephanie Soechtig.

"..... even as gun deaths and mass shootings continue to increase.” First lie out of the gate. What about the "mass stabbing" in Taunton Mass and other edged weapons assaults? Huh? What about that? Guess it's gonna be a toss up of watching this or pre-recorded episodes of "the view". Nah, I'll just slit my wrists. LOL!

Isn't it past time for her to have another colonoscopy?

Her armed body guards no doubt agree with her.
Better for their business!

Seems to me she’s still under anesthesia. Or at the very least suffering long term side effects. Talk about ego. I’m pretty sure this will be a very low rated show as far as viewers. And what he heck Epix anyway? Don’t think my rabbit ears get that one. LOL!

P.S. Good thing katy was “lucky” as the lyin’ king thinks. Well, good for her.

Pro Hillary propaganda, aimed at middle aged women.

Isn’t Couric the one who used to sign off her newscast saying “Death to America?”

even as gun deaths and mass shootings continue to increase.

Notice they never compare “gun deaths” with other types of deaths such as automobile accidents or even drownings?

The little football cheerleader from Colgate is now an expert on everything in life.

Not so much.

” I’m pretty sure this will be a very low rated show as far as viewers.”

Especially as pay-pr-view.

But once it’s shown in public, it can be shown over and over and over in schools, right after Fahrenheit 911, Supersize Me, and Bowling for Columbine. That’s why the thing was made to begin with.

She was on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show last night selling her Mockumentary.

She showed a clip of NRA Members agreeing with Universal Background Checks and said 75% of NRA Members agree while 90% of the Public agrees as well.

Then she trashed the NRA and had a spiel about the Gun Lobby.

Coincidentally, EPIX is having a Free Preview this weekend when Katie’s Mockumentary airs.

Thanks, Katie. Gun sales will go up again.

She's "taking on" and "blasting" a group but she has no agenda and is an unbiased journalist. Has been the whole time, especially when she was a network news anchor. Uh huh.

She’s really a small player.
Baraq Obama will go down in history as America’s #1 gun salesman. Unless Hillary and a Dem Senate get elected.

Then it’s a bunch of SCOTUS appointees and bye bye 2nd Amendment. Gun sales would be incredible (assuming somebody can make enough to fill the pipeline).
