John Oliver late Sunday ripped the National Rifle Association's (NRA) streaming channel, saying NRATV paints a "bleak vision of America."

Oliver noted during his HBO show that while other companies had cut off ties with the NRA amid public pressure after last month's mass shooting at a Florida high school, streaming services like Apple, Amazon and Roku still offered the channel.

He showed clips from NRATV, including one of group spokeswoman Dana Loesch talking about the “clenched fist of truth” that went viral, and a show during which a veteran reenacts scenes from different action movies.

Oliver also noted the service’s news coverage, which he described as “essentially Fox News on a lower budget.”

And he highlighted a channel dedicated to women, which featured an NRA executive saying, “If you get the women, you get the family.”

Oliver largely focused on NRATV's themes, saying it highlights dangers in the U.S. in different videos.

“The final defining characteristic of the network is painting a bleak vision of America, with threats around every single corner and one solution,” Oliver said, before sharing clips of figures like Loesch and NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre describing threats in the U.S. like human trafficking and terror attacks.

Oliver also argued that much of the content is designed to sell products, noting that many of the shows are sponsored by gun companies like Smith & Wesson.

“To watch NRATV is to watch a constant stream of stories like those, many of them real but amplified to terrify you and sell you products,” Oliver said.

Several groups and petitions have called for the streaming services to stop offering NRATV following the Florida mass shooting.
