stanc Wrote:Re "perception": Perhaps your obvious anti-media bias causes you to perceive the national news as having an anti-gun "agenda."Since my bias is pro gun, I guess my bias is true but to deny the media's anti-gun bias is being willfully naive. Days, weeks, months and years of rehashing of mass shootings with false or exaggerated narratives shows the medias anti-gun bias. Very little if any news about the CDC's burying their study of privately held firearms preventing crimes is another example of their agenda driven anti-gun bias. https://capitalresearch.org/article/why-...tatistics/
stanc Wrote:The national news shows typically -- and understandably -- report only on events which are deemed to be of nationwide interest.When the national news decides to promote only one side of a very divisive political argument using the false premise of " yea or nay national news worthy", is what we call propaganda driven media. That is the very essence of bias. Under that logic, a mass shooting should only be local news worthy.

Getting all the news and information is vitally important for decision making. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYi_hq2p1Ac
