“That is one of the worst articles I’ve ever read.”

Wow. You said it. That reporter needs to be ashamed of himself or herself. And the editor. The woman was not murdered, she was caught in a crossfire between her kids and some other kids. The emotional manipulation is breathtaking, and ascribing the tragedy to gun manufacturers is like blaming Ford for drunk driving tragedies. This wasn’t a news story, it was an editorial, a blatantly one-sided editorial at that.

The Daily News sometimes almost always posts editorials in the News section, which is why I posted this one to editorial here.

It wasn't even an editorial -- editorials are usually halfway honest. This was pure, vile, emotive agitprop, right out of Goebbels.

So what's this newsie doing -- doing evil right here in America, committing journalistic malpractice of the first water?

Why does he still have a job, writing schlock like that?
