Lie First, Lie Always: The Media And Guns

Katie Couric’s “docoumentary” “about” “guns in America” has been busted engaging in misleading editing to try to embarass pro-Human-rights activists.

Here’s what appeared on Couric’s broadcast:

However, raw audio of the interview between Katie Couric and the activists provided to theWashington Free Beacon shows the scene was deceptively edited. Instead of silence, Couric’s question is met immediately with answers from the activists. A back and forth between a number of the league’s members and Couric over the issue of background checks proceeds for more than four minutes after the original question is asked.

Here’s the raw audio:

 

The first, most obvious lesson? If you’re a human rights advocate, and someone from the media actually deigns to speak with you, and they want to do it in recorded form – record the interview. You’ll have to do it surreptitiously – mainstream media people often demand to have complete control of the narrative. So record them anyway. You are more likely than not to bust them in a lie.

Why?

Because this category is called “Lie First, Lie Always”.

Under the Gun bills itself as a documentary that “examines the events and people who have kept the gun debate fierce and the progress slow, even as gun deaths and mass shootings continue to increase.”

Which they have not.

But you knew that.

The only surprise would have been had they not been caught lying.

  1. Can’t say I’m surprised, since I saw a trailer for this “documentary” that put a couple of individuals identified as NRA members being treated to the “gotcha” question that asked them if they knew people on the Terror Watch List were still allowed to purchase and own guns.

    * face-palm *

    Yes, because denying people the exercise of their constitutional rights can be done on suspicion alone.

  2. If the perky one told me my nose was in the middle of my face I’d look in the mirror to make sure.

  3. I have to wonder how many times of deceptive editing need to be done before Ms. Couric and her staff are relieved of their jobs.

  4. I can’t belief that this witch is still on the air.

    I love how she stated, “some would say that the introduction of the Brady Bill…”

    No proof-just hear say type crap that libidiots rely on. They know that their minions are too lazy and too stupid to do their homework to find the truth.

  5. Couric is too dense to realize it, probably, but she just cashed in her career.

  6. Swift: Interpreted: She can now slink away in shame and obscurity – with her millions.
