    Default Media dishonesty on full display

    https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb...about-gun-laws

    Well look at the media selectively editing this poor father in his grief? They edited out the important part where he said "It isn't about new gun laws right now"

    He is right.

    Now why would the news media edit that out?

    Anyone?

    fake news isn't just making up crap from anonymous sources,
    it's also editing out/not covering news that doesn't fit the LW narrative

    It is easy to assemble truth and facts into a dishonest and politically motivated story.

    You are correct that ABC and NBC are not very reputable.

    Translation: I have no other defense, so I will attack the source of news I don't like

    Obviously you know leaving out that last part really changes the discussion. It wasn't a minor omission was it?

    Thank you for your concession. I appreciate and accept it.

    When you get this childish it's just an indication of your desperation

    Full context................


    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
