I originally posted this on my personal blog, Random Acts of Gibberish, but it’s too funny not to share with a wider audience.
Oopsie, someone has a little explaining to do
…to the ATF.
AJC.com, the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation just published a story claiming a reporter built an assault rifle.
I helpfully emailed authorized urinalist, Ken Foskett to explain that if that’s true, someone is going to prison.
Interestingly, it took some searching to find Foskett’s email address. AJC killed the link to the reporter staff directory. I guess they got tired of getting negative feedback from people who know they’re full of shit. Fortunately, they left the actual directory online; you should bookmark it.
Nice try, Foskett.
Yeah, you edited the article from this
to this
but you forgot to change the graphic.
I just had to send Foskett one more email.
Nice try.
But you forgot to change the graphic.
Fortunately, I kept screen shots of everything in case the ATF should ask.
I expect that graphic will disappear from the AJC site in 3… 2… 1…
UPDATE, 2/8/2018: They finally realized they still had the “assault rifle” image loading. It’s now gone. Further, they’ve set the original URL…
http://investigations.blog.ajc.com/2018/02/06/home-diy-project-build-your-own-ar-15-semi-automatic-assault-rifle/
..to redirect to this one, so “assault rifle” no longer appears in the address bar.
https://www.myajc.com/blog/investigations/home-diy-project-build-your-own-untraceable/GP69yaLThpUXrLeCLYYxKN/
But no mention that they edited the original story for content.
