The last thing a liberal host wants is for any quest to inject logic and common sense into the discussion. David Gregory was stunned and unable to answer such an easy question

It is the media's job to cover up the fact the political machine in Chicago does not enforce the gun laws there and then the press gets to use the gun violence as hammer to beat gun rights advocates with.

while the point is completely valid, it technically is unfair to complain that Gregory couldn't answer the question... at least based on the linked video, as the video cuts off as soon as Gregory starts talking. Perhaps a more complete video will show Gregory couldn't answer?

Here you go, and the video is linked as well




“Let me hold up a mirror right now to the whole national news media and the White House,” LaPierre said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” Citing new 2012 data from Syracuse University, LaPierre said that out of 90 jurisdictions, Chicago ranks last.


“Why doesn’t NBC News start with ‘shocking news on Chicago, of all the jurisdictions in the country, Chicago is dead last in the enforcement of federal gun laws’?” he demanded. “Why don’t the national press corps, when they’re sitting down there with Jay Carney and the president and the vice president, why don’t they say, ‘Why is Chicago dead last in enforcement of the gun laws against gangs with guns, felons with guns, drugs dealers with guns?’”


NBC host David Gregory didn’t respond to LaPierre’s charge, instead asking only whether he and the NRA “support those as felonies.”


“Absolutely and we want them taken off the street,” LaPierre said. “If you’re the president and the vice president and the attorney general and your job is to enforce these laws against the — I’m talking about drug dealers, gangs and felons that are walking around with guns in the street — and you don’t do it, you bear some responsibility.”

I used to be a dedicated Meet the Press fan when Tim Russert was still alive.
Once he was gone. I saw how Greggory became nothing but a Liberal, Democrat Pawn assigned by NBC/GE
as the stand-in for Russert. But...that never happened.
So. I stopped watching.

I am wondering why every LINK to that video is shortened, and doesn't include Greggory's reply.
