Instead the mass media quickly buried the story since it doesn't "fit the gun control narrative". <<The Grand Jury indictment came one week after D.C. police and FBI agents apprehended Corkins minutes after he allegedly walked into the lobby of the FRC building and told FRC security officer Leo Johnson “I don’t like your politics” before firing a handgun and hitting Johnson in the arm, according to an arrest affidavit filed in court.>>

For the most part, when you see someone here complaining about the "MSM" or the "liberal media", they're echoing something the noise machine put into their minds. When some of us complain about the noise machine, it's exactly the opposite: at least for me, I know that when I post something negative about Drudge Report's bias, it's a result of something I read myself on Drudge Report. Same thing when I quote Rush Limbaugh - it's either something from his website or his actual words on his broadcast. Fox News: same thing - I look at foxnews.com or watch the actual show. It's not as if I ignore all of the source material that's easily available, and just turn on MSNBC or read Huffington Post to decide how the noise machine is covering something. Yet this seems to be a totally foreign concept to noise machine victims.
