Are Facts Obsolete?

In an article entitled “Are Facts Obsolete?,” Thomas Sowell writes:

“We learn from the media's filtered facts that there are countries with stronger gun-control laws than ours which have lower murder rates. We seldom, if ever, learn from the media about countries which have stronger gun-control laws than ours and whose murder rates are two or three times higher than ours.”
He concludes his piece by stating:

“Apparently scholars, as well as journalists, have made up their minds and don't want to be confused by the facts.”
