Guns

On Thursday's New Day on CNN, the show plugged a stunt that was orchestrated by a gun control group that lured former NRA president David Keene into giving a speech for a fake graduation ceremony.

On Monday morning, CNN Newsroom gave free campaign advertising to one of the Democratic candidates for Ohio governor, Dayton mayor Nan Whaley, giving her a forum to call for more gun control in her state.

Univisión demostró una vez más que sus sesgos liberales trascienden la inmigración. Esta vez, la cadena tergiversó la nueva ley de portación abierta firmada por el gobernador de Texas, Greg Abbott.

Once again Univision shows that its liberal biases extend beyond immigration. This time, the network misrepresented Texas’ new open-carry law recently signed by Governor Greg Abbott. Watch as Univision anchor Jorge Ramos smears the new open-carry statute, by suggesting that Texans can bear arms without undergoing a background check.

After the past couple of weeks of CNN intensively pushing for more gun control, CNN anchors this week picked up on Senator Chris Murphy's attack on his Republican colleagues via Twitter, and host Ana Cabrera even promised to continue the lobbying until the government takes action on gun control.

In a segment on recent mass shootings, CNN eight times refers to "gun violence" but never once speaks of "criminals." The liberal media prefers to shift focus to inanimate objects and away from people committing the crimes. 

On Wednesday afternoon, CNN continued its recent anti-gun activism as host Ana Cabrera gave the mayor of San Jose, Sam Liccardo, a forum to advocate essentially taxing legal gun owners while blaming them for the costs of gun violence.

Today’s edition of the NewsBusters Podcast has a special treat for listeners. Stephen Gutowski, founder of The Reload, your home for sober and serious firearms news and analysis, joins Curtis Houck and I to talk about the liberal media’s ignorance about guns and gun culture, and their willful and dishonest use of certain statistics.

Regular CNN viewers will have noticed that since Tuesday, CNN's New Day and a number of other CNN shows have been displaying an on screen tabulation of the number of mass shootings and deaths from mass shootings so far this year, in much the same style the network had been using to keep track of COVID death statistics.

On Wednesday night’s The ReidOut, unhinged MSNBC host Joy Reid continued to promote leftist gun-control policy, using meaningless adjectives and rhetoric to attack Republican senators. This time she described Senators Ted Cruz, John Kennedy, and Marjorie Taylor Greene as “anti-democratic,” “Second Amendment fetishists.”

On Tuesday's New Day show on CNN, co-host Brianna Keilar devoted a segment to trying to undermine a soon-to-be law in Texas that will allow legal gun owners to carry concealed handguns without a permit.

On Monday morning, CNN's New Day show devoted a segment to letting gun control activist and frequent guest Fred Guttenberg trash Republicans and cheer for Democrats to enact more gun laws, supposedly to stop the kinds of shootings that happened over the past weekend.

CNN Newsroom host Alisyn Camerota welcomed Parkland activist David Hogg on to the Monday show to discuss not only the need for gun control in response to gun violence over the weekend, but also gun purchases since the beginning of the year. For Hogg, people purchase guns because they are bigoted individuals who fear those who are different.

On Thursday's New Day show, CNN had moderate Republican ex-Congresswoman Barbara Comstock on the show to react to the days news and be critical of her own party.
