    Default GMA3 reporting on Monterey Shooting

    Should come as no surprise to anyone - but decided to post it anyway to further highlight the kind of evil we are up against. So I stopped home during lunch today, and my parents were channel surfing and they landed on ABC GMA3 and they were reporting on the Monterey shooting. I told them to stop so I could see how biased the coverage was. Evidently, since the shooter used a pistol, instead of a AR-15, the news caster decided to say the shooter used a 9mm "Assault" pistol, and since they couldn't claim it was "white supremacy / bigotry" they brought in a Medical expert to explain the the social effects of mass shootings - and low and behold in the top right corner of the graphic listing the effects, was a picture of a white male, in a white shirt and tie pointing an AR at the tv viewers - guess they had to get that white shooter reference in somewhere. Infuriating. link to video below:

Infuriating. It was on at noon - so till too early for it to be posted on their websites - will try to find and link it. If you find it before me - feel free to add to the thread.
    langley outdoors point out that the new attack on guns is the assault pistol.

    If it were a black shooter and nobody pointed out that it was a black shooter, you people would be crying foul all over the place, especially that one poster that seems to post nothing else...can't remember his name. Shooter something or another I think.

    But the shooter wasn't white, he was Asian, so the picture should have been an Asian guy holding a pistol to reflect the actual incident.

    I think what disturbed me more was the shirt and tie on the shooter in the photo - it was like the inside/outside sales middle class white guy just picking up his free Wawa coffee is gonna kill you for sure. Very insidious.

    Sadly, this information was left out of the post I responded to.

    Thanks for clarifying the complaint.
