ABC: Don’t Worry about Terror Because Gun Violence So Much Worse

[See NewsBusters for more.] Good Morning America’s Dan Harris on Sunday lectured viewers on worrying too much about terrorism and instead pushed gun control. Regarding Islamic plots, he wondered, “But, how serious is this threat, really?” Harris noted, “Terror attacks are quite rare. Since 9/11, Islamic extremists have killed 45 Americans on U.S. soil. Five a year on average.”  Harris added, “Not even close to the 11,000 Americans killed every year by gun violence.” Of course, this skepticism came within a panicky segment about what to do in a workplace terror attack.
