So why is it the media makes gun violence a issue, but not alcohol related deaths? Which do you think is a bigger issue? 75,000 related alcohol deaths or 15,000 gun related?

Media has a agenda. That agenda is the push the buttons of people's fear and emotions so they can prosper.

I think unfortunately that drunk driving is just so widespread that its not a big story. School shootings are not that widespread so they are a big story. Dont see any agenda other than to get people to watch their channels or buy their papers. If tonite there is a drunk driving accident and a mass shooting in your town, which is going to draw your attention?
