PBS Frontline’s NRA Documentary Airs Tonight
« on: January 06, 2015, 07:11:18 PM »
Tonight (Tuesday) on PBS's Frontline -- Gunned Down: The Power of the NRA

Their teaser clip positions LaPierre as an "extremist" (ominous music and all) pushed to extremism by his extremist members. And ending the teaser with the assertion that the NRA wanted to "bash the president's brains out."

I look forward to a fair and balanced piece from PBS.

Just finished watching it. They basically blamed the NRA for the Gabby Giffords shooting, Columbine, and Sandy Hook. They precisely blamed the NRA for Al Gore's loss, and thus the sunset of the AWB, looser gun laws, and pro-gun SCOTUS decisions.  They stated, by both implication and direct accusation, that many politicians are afraid of bucking the NRA.

So in other words not worth my time to watch propaganda?

It's way overdue to eliminate supporting PBS with tax money.

I understand it makes less than 10% of their budget.
