Maybe stupid isn’t the right word, ignorant is more like it.

---

According to my definition, stupidity is being ignorant of something you, personally, should know.

i.e. A professional dancer that does not know how to use or maintain the guns used by cops is ignorant. A cop that doesn’t know how to use or maintain his gun is not just ignorant. He’s stupid.

These reporters are, quite literally, stupid - or they have an agenda and think their audience is stupid.

My take:

Stupidity is not being able to think properly, to have a mental handicap.

Ignorance is not knowing something one could learn, or was never taught.
