If you watched any of the coverage, you had to notice the confusion, contradictions, and attempts to fill air space with any words available. The term "feeding frenzy" comes to mind. That Piers Morgan showed up as a spokesman for the event shows the caliber of the reporting. The fact that most of the coverage was by people whose gun training was from adventure movies by action heros really helped. Be nice if reporters were required to have knowledge of what the covered. But that would probably infringe on their First Amendment rights.
