"...The New York Times has suffered a major black eye ... ...and a fat lip!

...better put ice on it...

...the staff working on the project had primarily concentrated on cases in the more recent years. They had only gotten the easily obtainable cases from earlier years. I noted that it was strange that anyone would think that there were exactly 100 such attacks over the 50 years, and he indicated that 100 simply seemed like a convenient number to stop at.

These guys have no shame...and not enough intelligence to realize the ignorance of these statements...

Thanks for posting this.

The last thing the NY Slimes will want in this time of crisis is Dr John Lott going against them and documenting decades of lies re their stories on guns.

[Grampa Dave]

"When a reputable newspaper lies, it poisons the community. Every other newspaper story becomes suspect. Anyone stung by a newspaper story feels emboldened to call it a lie. Facts are not only impugned but made impotent. . . . The lie--the fabricated event, the made-up quote, the fictitious source--is the nightmare of any respected newsroom. It is intolerable not only because it discredits publications but because it debases communication, and democracy."
