The year of 2015 has been a year filled with high profile events. These events are almost always involved a mass shooting. A mass shooting can be defined as an incident involving multiple victims of gun violence. However, the FBI has no true definition of a mass shooting, it can be prepared to mass murders as killing 3 or more people in a short amount of time. Just in 2015 alone this definition fits almost an unlimited number of high profile cases. However, these shooting are not shown as simply as these definitions. During and after the crime is committed, it’s the media that truly spins what the crime detailed and what the true definition is. To the media nothing is simply black and white, and a shooting is a lot more than an actually shooting. This is what the paper will be discussing.
