It appears National Public Radio is, once again, spreading misinformation, writes BecketAdams. 'Many newsrooms repeating the same anecdote from a report published in the early 1960s does not necessarily make it true.'
The beneficiary of the public dole reported last week that the AR-15, the ever-popular rifle, is “designed to blow targets apart.”
But perhaps NPR was talking about some of the larger, more powerful AR-15-specific cartridges that have only recently been made available. Funny story about that. The claim on its face is a difficult one to believe, and this is even before we get into the question of sourcing. The decapitation claim comes from a single anecdote from the conflict in Vietnam. It was repeated later by Gawker, then by the Intercept, and then once more by NPR.
The woman referred to her alleged attacker repeatedly as “him,” but the BBC quietly edited her quotes to avoid “misgendering” the accused, the Times of London reported last week. The woman told the BBC verbatim: “I was too young to argue and had been brainwashed by queer theory so he was a ‘woman’ even if every fiber of my being was screaming throughout, so I agreed to go home with him. He used physical force when I changed my mind upon seeing his penis and raped me.”
