They also show the weapon used as a backward image of a 1911 (i.e. the controls are on the wrong side). And examples of Makarovs in training. The media really has no clue when it comes to handguns. To them a modern style handgun is a Glock or 1911.

The media isn't expected to know anything, just a bunch of talking heads.
