Then the other station respectfully interviews the SAME man (who is black) who discusses why he is wearing the rifle. No discussion of hate filled white people or assassinations or anything. Amazing, amazing.
It might be fun to have a separate thread on obviously inaccurate and slanted reporting done by the media at all levels and for both sides of the political spectrum.

I saw a couple of other reports showing this guy and his rifle but hadn't seen this report. MSNBC obviously and deliberately showed only his torso with the rifle and then tried to insinuate that only white people are angry enough to do this sort of thing. MSNBC caught red-handed in an unbelievably slanted report!
