The NRA Just Announced It's Shutting Down NRA-TV, and People Are Responding in the Perfect Way

The NRA Just Announced It's Shutting Down NRA-TV, and People Are Responding in the Perfect Way
NRATV

Burn.

The National Rifle Association (NRA) announced it would be shuttering NRATV, the organization's online video network. While old content will still be accessible on NRATV, no new content will air.

The move comes as the NRA has severed all ties with its former advertising partner, Ackerman McQueen, which operates NRATV. The rogues' gallery of personalities who dutifully rail against common-sense gun control after each mass shooting will also likely no longer be employed by the NRA.


This includes Dana Loesch. The far-right commentator became a familiar face on NRATV and the world with her defense of assault rifles. Loesch made waves as well when representing the NRA at a CNN Town Hall on gun control with the survivors of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre.

With hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue per year, it's often seemed that the NRA's monetary hold over Republican politicians would keep the legislative bulwark against common-sense gun control standing forever. But with immense financial problems, lawsuits, and a public weary of mass shootings, the tides seem ready to turn.

As for the demise of NRATV, people have one thing to say.

People are especially sending condolences to Dana Loesch.

"Thoughts and prayers," for those who may not know, is the oft-repeated refrain of gun rights activists after yet another mass shooting. Unlike legislation, thoughts and prayers do virtually nothing.

While the NRA is still very much alive, the hysterical media it peddled to subscribers will be a thing of the past.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
