Yeah, we have well known posters like Crowder, and big name shows like Shooting USA, but does the main stream media pay attention to AR15.com?

It appears that when I watch the news from some of the major networks/syndicates especially when it concerns firearms, there are strangely similar "quotes" that seem to originate from here.

I really have no specifics I can offer up at this time, but in the past I've noticed strange coincidences that mirror threads that have appeared about particular incidents and political situations where certain turns of phrase seem to have been taken from threads and turned into sound bites from the talking heads and familiar sounding "informed sources".

No.

ETA - Pay attention to?  No.  Search Google and this site is in a fair number of results, especially those related to evil, baby killing AR-15s?  I'd bet so.

Have you seen them 'report' on firearms, ammo or anything even remotely related to anything on this site?

It's so shitty there is no way possible they even spent 5 minutes here.

When the rebel flag was coming down from S. Carolina govt property an article took a quote from a post on this site.

Well, I never said they didn't quote the wrong people.

But yeah, I've seen at least 2 anti gun reporters outed here for trying to stir up the smack.

Last one was about a year ago, some fedora wearing schmuck that was trying to get people to admit to illegal practices.
