You can write any kind of claptrap these days, and as long as you call it a “blog,” you don’t have to worry about backing up any of your assertions with facts.
Case in point: Laura Washington’s silly little diatribe, called “Let’s Pry Open Those Cold Dead Hands.”
She starts by claiming that Americans are crying out for more gun control. Apparently, the standards in Journalism school have sunk to such a degree that the only attribution required is, “national news polls.” It seems that corporate entertainment product has replaced research these days.
