Can I get a show of hands from all of those still surprised by Ms Couric's behavior?[crickets]Thought so.
She should be blacklisted from having access to anyone active on the pro 2nd amendment side.Liberal snakes like her are never to be trusted and should be shunned.
Nora Ryan, the chief of staff for EPIX, the cable channel that is airing the documentary, told the Free Beacon in an email, “Under the Gun is a critically-acclaimed documentary that looks at the polarizing and politicized issue of gun violence, a subject that elicits strong reactions from people on both sides. EPIX stands behind Katie Couric, director Stephanie Soechtig, and their creative and editorial judgment. We encourage people to watch the film and decide for themselves.”

Viking - The problem with the modern world is that there aren't really any predators eating stupid people.
Fox News has picked up the story:http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2016/05/26/katie-couric-slammed-for-deceptive-documentary-about-gun-rights.htmlSo has CNN:http://money.cnn.com/2016/05/25/media/katie-couric-guns-stephanie-soechtig/index.html?section=money_latestFrom the second link, it looks like the director is being thrown under the bus.
I never intended to make anyone look bad and I apologize if anyone felt that way
In the years we’ve covered and watched media organizations, we’ve scarcely seen a thinner, more weaselly excuse than the one in the block above. For starters, it appears to count as an admission that this segment of the documentary was edited. The artistic “pause” provides the viewer not a “moment to consider this important question”; it provides viewers a moment to lower their estimation of gun owners. That’s it.
In all fairness to Katie, it was probably President Obama Clark and the Ministry of Truth that made her do it.
Even the uber-leftist Washington Post is coming down on Couric & Soechtig:https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2016/05/25/audiotape-katie-couric-documentary-falsely-depicts-gun-supporters-as-idiots/
Ha ha ha. She's getting creamed on her Facebook page.
Randy is suffering from severe constipation and has been unable to defecate for more than three weeks. After taking a laxative, Randy produces an abnormally large piece of excrement during an extremely painful bowel movement. Believing he has passed the world's biggest stool, he reaches out to the "European Fecal Standards and Measurements" office, headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland. The institute concludes he has the world record, weighing in at 8.6 courics – a fictional measurement unit (approximately 2.5 pounds) named after journalist Katie Couric.
Couric and Brian Williams should team up, given their fondness for fiction.
