Washington Post article on selective editing by anti-gunners
Here's an interesting article on The Washington Post:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...cd5b_blog.html I can't see the videos here at work, due to our firewall, but the article looks like one of which we should be aware. It deals with selective editing of a video, which was then run as an anti-gun message. It's from the WaPo's "Fact Checker" and the video got a "Three Pinocchio" rating, out of a possible four.

At least they're balanced and link to the misleading NRA ad as well. I think nothing is gained when both sides stray from the facts.

The most amazing part of that is that they only gave it 3 Pinocchios. If that only gets 3, I can't imagine what it would take to get 4.
