As if gun rights supporters needed any evidence of media bias, NewsBusters recently reported that major broadcast outlets basically ignored a student-led walkout to underscore the importance of our Second Amendment right.

The pro-gun walkout occurred on a Thursday morning, and only one of the major networks, CBS, had anything about it. CBS, though, waited until after its evening broadcast before publishing anything, and that was just an online reference. But that beat what the other broadcasters did.

Compare that with the Media Research Center’s report that the gun control walkout received more than 10 minutes of combined airtime on the big three networks.
