This is the kind of coverage you couldn't buy. Sure, they give the obligatory nod to the antis, but overall, my source from Georgia Carry tells me:
Reporters can be won over. Ashley Olmstead ran a news story recently on the surge in firearms license applications in Georgia that had some factual and legal errors in it. When GCO members pointed this out to her, she immediately corrected the errors. In response, local GCO members invited her shooting this morning. She had never shot a pistol before, and neither had her cameraman. They ended up having a blast and stayed so long that they were late for a subsequent story. Here is a link to the news video that ran this evening. http://www.georgiacarry.org/ with the headline, Grassroots Group Fights for More Gun Rights. It is a good piece, and our members represented themselves very well.
