PBS NewsHour reported that two physicians, Dr. Sandy McKay and Dr. Joseph Sakran, took part in a segment of its Horizons program on preventing gun violence, moderated by William Brangham. According to the program's description, the discussion explores gun safety and public health.
PBS NewsHour's description states that America has an "epidemic of gun violence" that claims over 120 people every day. The same description says the country has debated what to do about the problem for years, but that little has changed. No separate source for the 120-a-day figure was provided with the description, so the figure is reported here as PBS NewsHour's own statement.
The description identifies McKay and Sakran as two experts with prevention ideas that they argue every American can get behind. It does not list those ideas, so this report does not detail them.
PBS NewsHour's description identifies Brangham as the moderator of Horizons. The description is a brief summary of the segment and does not include the doctors' full remarks or any additional data beyond the figure cited above.
