A Highland Park shooting survivor interrupted Fox News' TV coverage of a deadly Nashville school shooting, jumping on the live mic to demand lawmakers pass gun control.
Fox News and local news outlets were reporting on the scene when a woman walked up to the mic and gave an impassioned plea for gun reform.
The woman — whose name wasn't heard on the broadcast — said she was a survivor of the Highland Park, Illinois, shooting on July 4th, 2022, that left 7 people dead.
"Aren't you guys tired of covering this?" she said. "Aren't you guys tired of being here and having to cover all of these mass shootings?"
She said was visiting the Nashville area on a family vacation with her son to visit her sister-in-law when she heard about the latest deadly shooting — which left 3 children and 3 adults at a Christian school dead.
"I have been lobbying in DC since we survived a mass shooting in July," she said in front of a group of reporters on the scene, which was broadcast on Fox News. "I have met with over 130 lawmakers. How is this still happening? How are our children still dying and why are we still failing them?"
She continued: "These mass shootings will continue to happen until our lawmakers step up and pass gun legislation."
Fox News abruptly cut away from her, with a reporter responding to the woman's speech, saying she "said it quite succinctly: 'Aren't you tired of this?' Yes, we are tired of this."
Nashville Metro Police say a 28-year-old woman opened fire at The Covenant School Monday. The shooter, who has not yet been identified, was shot and killed by police.
