I know it is hard to believe, but the OldDominantLiberalMedia spikes stories like this as a part of policy.
John Lott has even written a scholarly book about it, titled "The Bias Against Guns". I need to get a copy as a refernce. I do recall, however, that on one national story, where guns were used to stop a school shooting, something like 302 out of 304 total stories that could be found failed to mention that fact.
Much of this is due to a rabidly antigun culture at Associated Press, which serves as a filter to the news for most of the nations newspapers.
"I know it is hard to believe, but the OldDominantLiberalMedia spikes stories like this as a part of policy."
That goes without saying, but where is the NRA jumping all over this ?
If any of the people were colored, where is Jesse Jackson and the ACLU ?
