tvc184 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Posted January 11, 2015 Don't tell me the news media blew it up out of proportion. Surely that could not have happened. PN-G bamatex 1 Quote
bullets13 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Posted January 11, 2015 In the media's eyes, the next best thing to a mass shooting is any story they can twist to appear like one. There was another incident at a hospital last week where a guy shot and killed a doctor and then himself. It was clearly an isolated incident but the media had us believing it was a mass shooting for several hours to boost ratings and page clicks Quote
