Media rant

The state run media getting their facts straight? The hell are you smoking?
This is the American media, it's obvious that it is bias so any intelligent person should be skeptical of anything said in the media. Then again, that would require people to be critical thinkers.
You have to remember, the media in America is biased towards and agenda and that agenda wants guns to go away and they don't care if they have to blatantly lie in order to get that agenda passed.
I leave you with this quote by Josh Sugarmann from the Violence Policy Center:
Their spokesman has come out and publicly stated at other points that capitalizing on the confusion of the public is a way to get their agenda across. People in the media know they can't win with facts or truth so they resort to misinformation, confusion and lies.

...the public's confusion over fully-automatic
machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons

is assumed to be a machine gun...

Incase I may toss a few words in myself:
The American mass media isn't the only one that is superb at spreading retarded crap, but you certainly manage to surprise me every time again.
Anyways, however that may be, it is part of any show / channel / magazine etc. that relies on information to alter it to make it sound more distressing / pleasing etc.
To quote Mark Twain:
"Get your facts straight first, than you can distort them as you please"
