TV News People Are Turning Into Editorializing Bullies by Walt Barrett

   I just watched a TV network news reporter interview Mr. David Keene who is the president of the National Rifle Association. 
Mr. Keene is a real gentleman and I must say a very patient man who knows how to handle himself when it comes to disrespectful  media people.  The Reporter was arguing with him over second amendment rights and was being very rude and overbearing like most reporters are these days. I don't know why the news media for that matter even bothers to invite any guests on at all these days because the reporters are always rude and are stepping all over their guests answers, cutting them off and always trying to force their extreme left wing views onto their guests.  All these reporters are really doing is sitting there editorializing their own opinions and those of the networks.  
As a point of reference, I like the Center myself.
   Although the news media does not totally run this country yet, remember that they would like to.  They would like to re-write our constitution, decide our elections, and dictate our foreign policy.
The news media is getting way to disrespectful toward certain people and organizations who are trying to do their best under terrible conditions.  They also give out far too much sensitive data about our military operations and they get in the way in combat zones and can get our personnel killed.
I am tired of news people with an agenda  who hide behind the same constitution that they are trying to deconstruct.  Believe me, the founders knew what they were doing when they wrote it.
News reporters act more like bullies than real journalists.  
I don't see them pointing out that if that Connecticut lunatic murderers mother had locked her guns up we would not even be talking now.  My heart goes out to the victims, but we should be enforcing the laws that we already have on the books.
Lets not let the media rush us into so extreme set of gun laws that we will all regret in the future.
