Yesterday, a shooting at a school in Highlands Ranch, CO, left one student dead and eight injured. To discuss the tragedy, Fox anchor Shannon Bream on Fox “news”-side show Fox News @ Night brought on NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch, who derided people for blaming guns after shootings.

Loesch also accused actress Alyssa Milano and gun safety activist and founder of Moms Demand Action Shannon Watts of politicizing the tragedy in their tweets condemning the school shooting and criticizing the NRA, asking, “What is wrong with these ladies’ hearts that their first response to a tragedy, before we even know who the victim is, is to rush to politicize it?”

Fox featured on screen a tweet attributed to Watts that was actually two tweets the network had misleadingly spliced together -- one posted after the shooting and part of another she had posted the day before. Fox has a history of propping up the NRA and the embattled organization’s legislative priorities. The NRA frequently accuses activists of politicizing deadly shootings.

Also, @FoxNews did a bad job of chopping up my tweet. I’m glad, though, that they added the part about the @NRA being weaker than they’ve ever been. Not #FakeNews! pic.twitter.com/gx3wxAr05D

So grateful for politicians like @CoryBooker who are prioritizing gun safety in their policy platforms. This is a sea change: Presidential candidates are competing to be the best on this issue - meanwhile, the @NRA is weaker than it’s ever been. 2020, here we come! pic.twitter.com/gyfRpWzNSl
