CBS, as well as the other two networks, routinely push gun control policies over gun rights by a large margin. So it was a welcome surprise to see the hosts of CBS This Morning on Wednesday actually quiz New Zealand’s Prime Minister over the morality and effectiveness of her newly enacted policies.

Talking to Jacinda Ardern about laws passed in the wake of the tragic Christchurch shooting, Tony Dokoupil demanded, “Are you punishing law-abiding citizens while letting criminals continue with their criminal activity?”

Dokoupil even wondered about whether gun buy backs do any good:

When ideas like buy backs come up in this country one of the criticisms, and I know you heard it in your country as well is, “Look, law-abiding people are going to give you the guns back. But the criminals and potential terrorists, people you don't want to have the weapons, it's not like they're going to listen to the ban.”

Of course, the hosts took time to praise teenage climate activist Greta Thunburg. Anthony Mason cheered, “One of the most-talked about, probably the most talked-about moment at the U.N. has been the speech by Greta Thunberg, a 16-year-old. Challenging the leaders of the world.”

He wondered, “Do you think she made an impact?” CBS hosts have routinely praised the child, hailing the “warrior’s” “panic” agenda.
