"Today, Jesse Jackson, the Brady bunch — not the TV folks but the anti-gun lobby — and other liberal activists will rally against "the national scourge of illegal guns" in cities around the nation."
"A classic example was a hit piece by "ABC World News Sunday" on July 8 blaming "rural" Pennsylvania's law makers for a 2007 crime wave of shootings in Philadelphia. After Rep. Steve Capelli, the single pro-gun rights legislator featured in the story, gave a statement, the camera went to a crime scene, followed by a gunshot, and then this from reporter David Kerley:
"That argument is being echoed across much of the country, as rural sensibilities continue to rule the gun debate. And cities like Philadelphia prepare for another night, and another shooting death."
Rural people, bad. Rural people with guns, worse. Rural people with guns cause Philadelphians to shoot each other.
Will the anti-gun lobby get good coverage for their rallies today?
You might as well ask, "Does the Brady bunch have CBS, NBC, and ABC on speed dial?""
