Oh my. Here are some examples of the press already spinning this:

The New York Times of course had to bring up the Alito duck hunting trip:

"Two years ago he went duck hunting with Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia in Louisiana, a trip that drew criticism because the Supreme Court had just agreed to hear a case involving Mr. Cheney's energy task force. "


Of course, ABC News had to post the same NRA photo (No media bias of course):

LaPierre, after concluding his keynote address to the 133rd annuanl NRA convention in this April 17, 2004 file photo in Pittsburgh.
