The story is now making the rounds in larger news sources. What amazes me is how fixated these guys are on the NRA. Check this out:

Now I was here when it happened. We all were. It was a during long weekend. Nobody from the NRA said bupkus. Indeed I think their response came well after Remington's. There was no secret email going out to members instructing them to get Zumbo.
They're determined to paint us as some sort of robot army of the NRA, which is so wrong as to be hilarious. They had nothing to do with anything.
News Item: Outdoorsman TV host Jim Zumbo comments on semi- automatic assault rifles, calling them "terrorist weapons" and saying, "Maybe I'm a traditionalist, but I see no place for these weapons among our hunting fraternity."
News Item: National Rifle Association coordinates "grass-roots response" to Zumbo's remark.
News Item: Zumbo loses his weekly TV program on the Outdoor Channel and is forced to resign from Outdoor Life magazine.
Remember: The NRA makes its bucks off the Second Amendment.

Having made an example of Zumbo, the NRA lost no time in telling Congress You're Next if it attempts "to create a new ban on semi-automatic firearms." As if Congress lives off Mossy Oak, Cabela's and Viagra ads like commerical media. Or 5,000 angry emails would sway an election.
