Might have to watch it, though I doubt it'll be fair to our side.

It's CNBC. The piece might as well be directed by Bloomberg.

I've viewed the short clips on youtube and it looks like it *might* be pretty fair.

CNBC is the only "fair" network that NBC owns.

I thought it was tonight, not Thursday?

You are thinking of MSNBC. CNBC is a pretty fair bunch.

 

[sundaeman]

CNBC has a different demographic than MSNBC. I'm hoping for relatively fair.

Our team wanted to understand the AR-15’s immense popularity on both sides of the debate and go beyond the clichés. Portraying the AR-15 negatively is not the objective of the documentary and we can reassure all owners and enthusiasts that we aren’t choosing a side.

Here’s a clip from the special: http://cnb.cx/Zg19V7.

“America’s Gun: The Rise of the AR-15” premieres tomorrow Thursday, April 25th aat 10p ET/PT.

Well hello and welcome to MDShooters.com! I certainly wasn't expecting that!

I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we appreciate you taking an honest an unbiased look at it. I couldn't imagine someone from CNN or any other news network taking the time to make an account here and speaking with us about it. Thank you.

For this response alone, I'll watch it.

Could not have said it better myself!

Is this going to be on my regular CNBC channel (Baltimore Verizon FIOS 102) or some extra-fee channel?

Almost regardless of bias, they will help sell another million rifles this year.

This.

Thanks for posting my DVR is set. Like I said, the previews looks promising. The issue needs to be explored without bias and I hope this is it.

Any firearm enthusiast KNOWS that the ar15 isn't any more lethal than any other semi auto and in most cases, is actuall less so. I hope that is presented to the audience I hope it is also made clear that it is a semi automatic rifle and not an automatic rifle like the military uses. Lots of folks don't realize that... Understandably so since many politicians who aren't versed on firearm function often mistakenly refer to them as "automatic weapons" or firearms "designed for the battlefield."

Not to mention many news clips talking about the ar but showing video of an m4.

Set my DVR last night. Nice too see CNBC drop by to comment!

 

[occbrian]

Oh... And let this be a lesson to everyone. When people tell you that we have eyes on us, they aren't kidding

But your parent company GE is not going to provide loans to firearms companies.
