Leslie Stahl on the 60 Minutes segment actually behaved like a journalist, presenting both sides. (I didn't sit there with a stopwatch to see if she gave exactly equal time to both sides.) She even emphasized that people at the gun show were filling out paperwork and going through the FBI background checks in order to buy guns.
This was in stark contrast to Dianne Sawyer's garbage on the earlier 20/20 segment - Ms. Sawyer ought to be ashamed to term herself "journalist" for the agenda-driven propaganda hit piece she produced - a performance that would do "Baghdad Bob" proud. (Come on, her segment had teenagers set up to "accidentally find" a gun using a flashlight to look down the barrel of a .357 revolver to see if it was loaded!! Either the gene pool is amazingly shallow, or it was all choreagraphed and rehearsed.)
