Having worked in a newsroom, I�d say reporting on unfamiliar subjects is common.

I’d say it’s SOP. See also: Gell-Mann effect.

Having worked in a newsroom, I’d say reporting on unfamiliar subjects is common. No subject though is as brazenly misreported by self-annointed “experts” as gun-control. It’s as if the subject requires none of the standard/basic fact-checking.

I must admit that this stull is fun to read. “bullet clip” has always been my favorite. Makes one wonder if people like him know anything about any other things that they write about. Jack.

OMG. If you put any more misinformation into a smaller space, it would collapse under its own weight and become an informational black hole where even logic couldn’t escape.

We should call that the “Spitzer Radius”.
