http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/02/ ... hypocrisy/David Brock, the founder of Media Matters, had a personal assistant illegally publicly carry a concealed handgun in the District of Columbia in order "to protect Brock from threats.” Few organizations have declared their opposition to gun ownership or concealed carry laws as strongly as Media Matters.
No explanation was provided for why Media Matters advocates punishing permit holders who accidentally carry permitted concealed handguns into gun-free zones, but simultaneously think that it is fine for their organization to carry guns in Washington, D.C. where no other civilians are allowed to do so by law.
. . . .
Between November 1st and February 14th, Media Matters ran 34 pieces containing the word “NRA” in 81 business days. 41 stories contained the word “guns.” 26 stories contained the term “Second Amendment.” Yet, despite this obsessive advocacy of gun control and Brock’s prominence in the media, there has been a virtual news black out on his hypocrisy. A Google news search on February 14 turned up only two news stories on news websites: one from Fox News and the other from the Daily Caller. Three other stories were located on other types of websites.
Simply put: it is the traditional and obligatory Leftist double standard.
