Appearing on the Fox Business Network's Varney & Co., MRC President Brent Bozell blasted disgraced NBC anchor Brian Williams, who now covers breaking news on MSNBC, for immediately injecting a liberal gun control agenda into coverage of the Oregon college shooting on Thursday. Bozell called it "obnoxious" and "offensive" for the media to push for liberal action without waiting for the facts, and saw a media double standard in the cheers for President Obama's choice to "politicize" the shooting, even as journalists condemned Rep. Kevin McCarthy earlier this week for allegedly politicizing the Benghazi inquiry.
