    I was waiting to post this but right here seems to fit.

    It looks as though Katie Couric stunned her interviewees. Knocked them out with a bombshell inquiry: “Let me ask you another question: If there are no background checks for gun purchasers, how do you prevent felons or terrorists from purchasing a gun?” Now check out the blank stares:....Nearly 10 seconds of silence, as if no one has an answer to Couric’s rather straightforward question. The scene comes from “Under the Gun,” a film written, produced and directed by Stephanie Soechtig and narrated by Couric, the global anchor for Yahoo News; Couric also serves as executive producer. The session depicted in the video above features Couric and members of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, a group whose motto is “Defending Your Right to Defend Yourself.”

    And to hear the VCDL tell the story, those awkward seconds are a fabrication, a byproduct of deceptive editing. To prove the point, VCDL President Philip Van Cleave has released an audiotape of the session, which is available on the site of the Washington Free Beacon as part of a story by Stephen Gutowski. In that recording, the question from Couric is a bit different from the one in the video. She says, “If there are no background checks, how do you prevent — I know how you all are going to answer this, but I’m going to ask it anyway. If there are no background checks for gun purchasers, how do you prevent felons or terrorists from walking into, say, a licensed gun dealer and purchasing a gun?”

    On the audiotape, a reply comes immediately from one of the VCDL members: “Well, one — if you’re not in jail, you should still have your basic rights.” More chatter follows."

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/blog...ary-falsely-depicts-gun-supporters-as-idiots/

    And today, Couric apologized....sort of...with another lie.

    “As executive producer of ‘Under the Gun,’ a documentary film that explores the epidemic of gun violence, I take responsibility for a decision that misrepresented an exchange I had with members of the Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL),” she wrote. “My question to the VCDL regarding the ability of convicted felons and those on the terror watch list to legally obtain a gun, was followed by an extended pause, making the participants appear to be speechless.
    “When I screened an early version of the film with the director, Stephanie Soechtig, I questioned her and the editor about the pause and was told that a ‘beat’ was added for, as she described it, ‘dramatic effect,’ to give the audience a moment to consider the question. When VCDL members recently pointed out that they had in fact immediately answered this question, I went back and reviewed it and agree that those eight seconds do not accurately represent their response….I regret that those eight seconds were misleading and that I did not raise my initial concerns more vigorously.”

    Unreal. A "documentary" that was manipulated to make gun right's activists looks stupid and moronic and both Couric and the director want us to believe that the silence was "just a beat"? Usain Bolt runs the 100 faster than that beat. The media continues to lie and contort the truth. Thems the idiots.

    The meth heads are going to be armed whether it's legal or not. Now it's legal for all 8 non inbred West Virginians to legally defend themselves

    Liberals think that those 8 should be good cooperative victims. How dare they take steps to defend themselves and their families from thugs and murderers.

    That's what the libs seem to just never understand or at least refuse to admit. The bad guys ALREADY HAVE GUNS. These carry laws are not putting any more guns in the bad guys hands they already have them and will have them regardless of the laws. Only thing the carry laws do is let the decent folks who actually follow laws carry their own legally. A felon still can't have a guns legally regardless so it's not letting them carry legally. It only allows the legal folks to stay legal. I mean what is it the the libs don't get? A criminal is a criminal for a reason...they break the law. So a law saying you can't carry means nothing to them it only affects those who obey the law. Plus once someone is a felon can't legally have one anyways regardless of carry law. I mean good grief how naive can someone be to think that a criminal is going to follow a law that says they can't carry?
