NBC caught fabricating the news. Again.

"This is just ridiculous, even for American "news" television. A report from NBC News was exposed — and rightfully so — by Errata Security for being so misleading that, frankly, we almost don't know where to begin."

I believe them to be capable of anything except honesty.

I'm trying to figure out which is worse: Lying by commission or lying by omission. Like when NBC just didn't talk about the Obamacare rollout problems for, what was it?, 10, 15, 120 days. Or was it ABC? Doesn't matter much, they're all the same. "No Pravda in Izvestia and no Izvestia in Pravda."

I can't mint it, but here's a good report on how ABC recently tried to slander gun owners:

Yes, I watched the Nightly News bits. It was laughably obvious propaganda but they get some points for showing the "gun parties" or "shooting parties" or whatever the exact terminology was. They framed them in such a way that they might as well have called them "Bubba parties". The idea is a valid one, though. I had my son trained up so he could take part in action shooting matches using pistol, rifle and shotgun when he turned 12, the earliest participating age permitted at my club. He even got a private lesson from an L.A. Sheriff's Dept. firearms instructor. Too bad they didn't show that. At least he doesn't go all loopy at the thought of a gun like his gun-deprived buddies do, the difference between training and deprivation.
