Odd that the debate here is all around what is in "the news", vs what is in the other tv shows people are watching. The amount of violence in the stories we watch is astounding; I wonder if that doesn't influence peoples perceptions much more than the news does. try counting how many times in the last week you saw a gun being drawn (on TV/Netflix/hulu).
