Original Message
An honest account of media misinformation after the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy has to take into account Rupert Murdoch's tweet about the need to ban "automatic weapons," when none was used to kill any of the 26 people. Can the chairman of News Corporation, the parent of Fox News, be this ignorant about the nature of gun laws and guns in America?
He asked, "When will politicians find courage to ban automatic weapons?" He urged Obama to exercise "bold leadership" on the issue.
Deep inside his story about the comments, Gabriel Sherman of New York magazine noted, "Despite Murdoch's plea, automatic weapons are already illegal in the United States; Adam Lanza [the killer] used semiautomatics."
