Shades of Dan Rather! The anti-gun, Anti Second Amendment chickens are coming home to roost on Katie Couric and director Stephanie Soechtig’s head.

A Virginia gun-rights group is suing Katie Couric and the producers of the documentary “Under the Gun” for $12 million in defamation over an interview that was revealed to have been deceptively edited.
The Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) and two gun-rights activists featured in the film, Daniel Hawes and Patricia Webb, are suing Ms. Couric, who produced the documentary and led the interview in question, as well as director Stephanie Soechtig, Atlas Films and Epix, the film’s distributor.

Bearing Arms editor Bob Owens broke the story. $12 million dollars isn’t chump change by any means. And, in fact, the VCDL may very well have a case. You can read the entire complaint here.

During the aired footage from the “Under the Gun” documentary Couric asked VCDL a question about background checks.

The video shows 8 seconds of pure silence. Only there’s a BIG problem with that supposed “silence.” Its called selective editing. Reporters from the Washington Free Beacon obtained the original audio. It tells a VERY different story.
