There is definitely intent from liberal "news" outlets to vilify gun owners. It's out there every day...
They use sensationalistic headlines like: "Arsenal Found!" or "Cache of weapons found"- which turns out being a couple of bolt action rifles and a non-functional starters pistol. That's not even a good start at a true arsenal... They found "Thousands of rounds of ammunition!" which is probably a few bricks of .22 caliber ammo. Then they go on to group a number of books on mental health issues with a NRA guide to pistol shooting (crazy people have books from the NRA...). And later in the article, they found eye and ear protection, "numerous" paper targets and a NRA certificate... Only crazy people have "numerous" targets... oh.. and an NRA certificate... It's subtle, but you start to see patterns. The author is quite likely a city dwelling hipster doofus that wouldn't know which end of a firearm is the business end, but that doesn't change "how" the information in the article is presented. -- Jeff -------- Original Message -------- > From: "Jerry Milo Johnson" <jmi...@gmail.com> > Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2013 10:12 AM > To: "cf-community" <cf-community@houseoffusion.com> > Subject: Re: Article on Findings in Newtown > > Yellow journalism implies intent. > > I think uninformed, minimum wage, recent college grads throwing out copy as > fast as they can is more likely. > > If that were the only article on the site showing sloppy research and > hackish writing, you might have a point. > > > On Thu, Mar 28, 2013 at 1:08 PM, Jeff Garza <j...@garzasixpack.com> wrote: > > > > > More like yellow journalism if you ask me... > > > > -- > > Jeff > > > > -------- Original Message -------- > > > From: "C.
