Join Current TV's Vanguard Journalist, Kaj Larsen, as he gives viewers a closer look at how guns are being used in America in the compelling new pod, "Machine Gun Shootout." On Wednesday, December 12th at 10 pm ET/PT viewers will be shocked to see what Larsen finds at the Knob Hill Gun Range in Kentucky from the operation of tanks and Napalm firing to a 9 year-old shooting machine guns. In this Vanguard special report, Current TV exposes one side of the gun culture issue at the largest machine gun shoot in the country an event most Americans probably didn¹t know existed.
The above text is from the promo email notifying me of the program.
"Viewers will be shocked"?
Sounds hysterical--we'll see. The title link takes you to the general website--I guess we'll need to wait for showtime to get a specific url.
I wonder if a "Vanguard Journalist" is even more special, hip, avant garde and just plain groovy than an "Authorized" one--I guess we'll find that out, too.
UPDATE: LINK NOW GOES DIRECTLY TO VIDEO--and it's not as hysterical as the promo email suggests--it is, in fact, surprisingly well-balanced and enjoyable. My first inclination is to say the PR folks did the segment a disservice by presenting this as a shock piece, but then again, for many who know no better, it probably is, and we can help change that.
