Even for Legacy Press Fact Checkers

With President Joe Biden securely in office and the 2024 presidential election 43 months away, the mainstream press has determined it an acceptable time to expose the frequent fibber’s most flagrant falsehoods. This week saw a plethora of so-called “fact-checkers” take issue with the blatantly false statements Biden made while announcing his “initial actions” on gun control on April 8.
In touting H.R. 8, which would criminalize the private transfer of firearms, Biden stated,
These bills, one, require background checks for anyone purchasing a gun at a gun show or an online sale.
Most people don’t know: If you walk into a store and you buy a gun, you have a background check. But you go to a gun show, you can buy whatever you want and no background check.
This decades-old gun show talking point is a lie.
There is no “gun show loophole” or “online sales loophole.” Federal law requires all firearm dealers to be licensed and to initiate a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check before transferring a firearm to a non-dealer, regardless of where the transfer takes place. Further, those “dealing in firearms as a regular course of trade or business with the principal objective of livelihood and profit” are required to be licensed as firearms dealers.
..... 
It is certainly beyond time that lies and false information should be exposed, but unfortunately even if attention is drawn it is usually too late to undo the public's gullible acceptance of same. As has often been stated - "tell a lie often enough and it will eventually be believed", something well supported by the biased MSM.
