CNN needs to stop deceptively editing videos

Did you see the the questionable video?

No, but the reality is that news outlets do edit material, and some of that edited material has been fuel for violence.

If there's intentional manipulation, then that's wrong.

Well, if there's no example,. then how can you believe the OP?

I went to CNN to try and find it, and they do have the wife's full cell phone video.

Then why are you here? Just to whine about something? Do you change your clothes? Do you feed yourself? You can google and rebut, or is your purpose to bait? If there is nothing there it shouldn't be hard to rebut.

It's all a conspiracy against the Donald!!!!1

For example, he never said "grab them by the *****." He REALLY said "grab them a drink and buy them a new ***** cat." CNN altered the audio.

Despite your snark, you are correct.

The issue of CNN and other news outlets deceptively editing videos IS the result of a conspiracy against Trump...though conspiracy is actually not a good word for it. Conspiracy connotes a hidden agenda and the agenda of those news outlets is not hidden at all.

Once upon a time journalists had integrity, and existed to challenge and expose malfeasance in our government. Now look at them. Sad state of affairs, but not at all surprising that even CNN has ascended into the gutter.

They've been there for a long time.

CNN is an unqualified joke. Before i started fact checking stories i took CNN as gospel. Not anymore.

All the mainstream media is an unqualified joke. I guess things are looking up since you know at least one of the presstitute media is an unqualified joke. ;)
 
all media (news) are a joke. Each have their own agenda they push out each and every day..
 
I'm curious to see who edits Trump's mea culpa so as to leave out the end where he mentions Bill & Hill.

Just now I essentially said that very same thing on another thread.
They were intended to be society's watchdogs not lapdogs.

First off, the American news networks are jokes. It's at best news-entertainment. Secondly, Fox does this too.

And the winning number is "10"...

That's how many post it took before a leftist had to bring up Fox News, even though they had nothing to do with the topic.

Congratz for being the lucky... ummm.. winner.

The duty of today's newspaper and broadcast station is to serve the interests of corporate ownership.

You have to remember that in the mind of the Trump brigade, the only reason why people don't like him and think he's a moron is because of the mythical "liberal" media telling them to hate Trump. Obviously Trump really is a good man who wants to "make America great again".

^ That.

Speaking simply from personal experience, I've disliked Trump for damn near 30 years.

I think Trump is a putz... but that's no excuse for the main stream news media to go out of their way to destroy him and get corrupt Hillary elected.

Trump's destroying himself.

The media just reports what comes out of his big mouth. Don't blame anyone else because the GOP primary voters voted for an uncouth clown as their nominee.

WTF are you talking about?

I have a suggestion... why don't you take a look at the topic of this thread and get back to me...
 
I say leave CNN alone.
I have faith in the American public, and believe that crooked media coverage merely lowers the mean IQ of those who view their show, it doesn't dumb-down America.
Fox News makes more revenue than the next 3 media corporations combined, and their success corroborates the acumen of the average American citizen.
