And CBS resports this as 'serious' news ...

President-elect Donald Trump’s education secretary pick Betsy DeVos’ sparked outrage among Democrats and many on social media on Tuesday when she cited the threat posed by grizzly bears in her response to a question about guns in schools during a confirmation hearing on Capitol Hill.

Murphy, a Democrat, interrupts by asking, “You can’t say definitively today that guns shouldn’t be in schools?”

Murphy later tweeted that he was “shaken to the core” by her answer.
