In case you missed it (and if you aren’t a masochist, you probably did), Chris Cuomo presided over a CNN town hall about “the gun crisis.” Oddly enough, the NRA didn’t send any representatives to participate. And Cuomo thought that was downright shameful:

Gee, we can’t for the life of us imagine why those NRA cowards would refuse to participate in such an honest and fair discussion of gun violence. And the nerve of them calling it a “spectacle”!
Gee, sounds like a fair moderator to me……I’d have been there in a heartbeat. pic.twitter.com/2NGOjtDUAR

Can’t imagine why they would turn down such a generous offer.

Can’t imagine why after they were treated so fairly the last time around…

Because they were treated so well the last time you did something like this…

We all remember how respectful they were to Dana Loesch.

Because the “honest conversation” is anything but honest or a conversation.

This says more about @cnn than the @NRA
