The makers of a new Katie Couric documentary on gun violence deceptively edited an interview between Couric and a group of gun rights activists in an apparent attempt to embarrass the activists, an audio recording of the full interview shows.
At the 21:48 mark of Under the Gun a scene of Katie Couric interviewing members of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, a gun rights organization, is shown.
Couric can be heard in the interview asking activists from the group, “If there are no background checks for gun purchasers, how do you prevent felons or terrorists from purchasing a gun?”
The documentary then shows the activists sitting silently for nine awkward seconds, unable to provide an answer. It then cuts to the next scene. (SNIP)
However, raw audio of the interview between Katie Couric and the activists provided to the Washington Free Beacon shows the scene was deceptively edited. Instead of silence, Couric’s question is met immediately with answers from the activists. A back and forth between a number of the league’s members and Couric over the issue of background checks proceeds for more than four minutes after the original question is asked.

I am sure you are correct and I am sure VCDL got just what they wanted out of this interview.
My mistake.
Gosh, I wish I understood the media as well as they seem to.
Dan Rather thanks you Katie!
He is no longer alone, in proving without a doubt and with damning evidence, how they both have abused the notion of “objectivity” in reporting to the point of being a total joke.
The mainstream media should distance themselves from both of them for the sake of their credibility, but like Michael Moore they just keep lying away, with no accountability to the truth and even ethics.
Mainstream media is proven generally no more credible than Moores “documentaries”, or any other agenda driven fiction (”Propaganda”) for that matter.
This wench is a threat and enemy of the Republic. This is not free speech, it’s intentionally designed fraud. Remove her from this country!
