@AP Claim? It is proven, not just a "claim". Report the facts news people, how hard can that be?

As Twitchy told you, thanks to some intrepid reporting at The Washington Free Beacon, Katie Couric has been outed (OK, confirmed) as a shameless liar and propagandist for hawking her deceptively edited anti-gun doc “Under the Gun.”
But here’s how the AP reported the bombshell:
Gun supporters claim #KatieCouric documentary deceptivehttps://t.co/C9imcVjaG0 pic.twitter.com/uNtgAzT097

They didn't just "claim." They proved it conclusively, and forced @stephsoechtig to admit it.#GunGate https://t.co/uV35FwmXBh

"Gun supporters claim"? Subjects have audio & director admits they inserted empty pause. Clear malicious intent to deceive.

Just pathetic, AP. But we’d expect nothing better from you.
