Journalist walks off as Sky News presenters refuse to link Orlando shooting to homophobia

Guardian journalist Owen Jones called the shooting "a deliberate attack on LGBT people.”

A guest on Sky News last night stormed off after a heated debate over the motives of the Orlando shooter, Omar Mateen who shot and killed 50 people and injured 53 in the LGBT nightclub attack in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Guardian journalist Owen Jones, who is also gay, joined presenters Mark Longhurst and Julia Hartley-Brewer on the newspaper review segment last night to discuss the devastating shooting in Orlando which President Obama described as "act of terror and an act of hate".
