ABC: Obama Enacting Gun Restrictions Without ‘Help’ From Congress

[See NewsBusters for more.] ABC and NBC on Tuesday offered one-sided spin on Barack Obama’s executive actions on gun control. Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts insisted that the President is enacting these restrictions without the “help” of Congress. Only CBS This Morning featured objections from Republican presidential candidates. On ABC’s GMA, Roberts and reporter Pierre Thomas allowed zero clips of those denouncing the plan. Instead, the co-host spun it as “ President Obama's big push to keep guns out of the hands of criminals” and “actions he hopes will reduce gun violence.” Incredibly, Roberts described the move this way: “All this without the help from Congress.”
