Popular Post Gurn Posted October 10 Popular Post Share Posted October 10 2 minutes ago, kilgore said: You know what is also a common tactic? For Trump supporters, who have long ago abandoned the idea expecting the leader they look up to being honourable, decent, honest, and not a rapist and felon. They take any scrap of a hint of a faux pas by the enemy, the Democrats, even grasping at alleged help from a third party, and blow it up as some kind of massive proof of deep state shenanigans. An interview show edits an answer down for time.....WHAT ARE THEY HIDING????. Then when its explained to the Trump cult that they released longer answer version as well.....IT DOESN'T MATTER, THEY CUT ONE VERSION DOWN TO HIDE HER WORD SALAD. or worse THE DEEP STATE AND OBAMA AND SOROS CONTROL ALL PRIVATE NETWORK NEWS (except Fox News of course) It could never be something as simple as that EVERY interview is edited down, including longer rambling answers by the guest, due to producing a polished show and fitting in all the questions they wanted to ask could it? Nah. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/10/donald-trump-falsely-accuses-cbs-of-doctoring-kamala-harris-interview-threatens-investigation/ The accusations seem to stem from right-wing media’s ire over the fact that a teaser for the interview showed Harris saying one part of her answer to a question about the war in Gaza, whereas the final interview shared a different moment. The Trump campaign accused CBS of taking an answer that was originally “word salad” and making it sound stronger. A statement from Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt claimed the answer “was deceptively edited to lessen Kamala’s idiotic response.” However, CBS has also published the clip of Harris’s full answer to the question, which includes the alleged “word salad,” suggesting it isn’t trying to hide anything and that its standard edit was due to length. The preposterous leap in logic that this "scandal", a private news show editing footage down (not altering it in any way) to fit it into an hour show vs. a preview of the show, gives PROOF that everything Donny said must be the truth.....and everything Kamala says must be lies....right? In reality, Harris campaign's lies so far: Trump campaign's lies But Kamal is somehow worse; because everyone expects that Drumpf is a lying, disgusting piece of trash.? Teflon Don syndrome. I'd guess there is an actual medical/psychiatric term for this type of thinking. I tend to stick to more 'everyman' wording- like false equivalency. -------------------------------------- I'd suggest that most of the Don's support, in this thread, is not from true believers, but rather from people that just like to upset other people. In the old days they'd be called trolls. And ignored- like I have done with many. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what is also fascinating in a social evolutionary way, is those kinds of human behaviours being on full display like never before. I for instance never thought that so many folks would be dumb enough to fall for a charlatan and life long criminal who is obviously in it only for himself and cares nothing about his own supporters. And what you said is true. That different standards can apply to different candidates simply based on the fact that one is a gushing sewer pipe, and the other lets a poorly chosen sentence, or a lie about a location date, drop once in a while so it stands out. It's huge news if the latter one makes even the tiniest of mistakes. That mistake is not compared to the other candidates lying history, but is instead compared to that same candidates past, normal, behaviour. Or some pure George Washington's "I cannot lie" standards. And as for that other candidate? The MSM also only compare Trump to Trump's past as well. And since nothing has changed, there is nothing to compare it to with the sheer amount of shit gushing out daily that they just give up. And that becomes the new normal for him. As for troll behaviour. Its some kind of juvenile thrill for them I guess. I just don't understand, if its all a game, and they are just posting pro Trump pro Fascist lies and exaggerated "scandals" by the other side for fun to rile up those that deal in reality,...........why? It makes you look like an idiot. Because others then actually believe that you are a patsy and believe what you post and must be as dumb as the morans you are defending. Such a shallow pool for them to get their laughs. Is that really worth the trouble? The easily amused. I guess they will always be with us 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should a national “news” network edit a candidate’s interview to make that person appear to interview better than they truly did? Just because something is done doesn’t make it right. If Trump’s interviews were edited to cut out his idiocy, there would be nothing left. Play interviews without edits. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want everything to be live again? Like the Sid Caesar show? 60 Minutes taped a bunch of people talking and then prepared 3 segments (or was it 4?) for broadcast. Editing occurred, just like it does every 60 minutes episode. 60 Minutes is a pretty good show right? Piles of Emmys and other awards. Of course, they do run into shit like this every once in a while. That's show biz for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about that it wasn't done to make her appear better, even though that is the maga spin, but was done to fit as many question's and answers in the 60 minutes, which is more like 40 minutes after commercials. I'm sure with every interview they do, they have reams of content. At least twice as much as they need. Then their editors go to work "cleaning" it up. Taking out repeated content, or unintelligible content soundwise, or even cut out parts of answers if they go on too long.....even if the byproduct of that is that it cuts out some of the word salad that her opponents could have made mincemeat out of. The maga spin that it was done for nefarious reasons is what is laughable. 60 Minutes was just doing what I'm sure they do for every interview, editing together a compelling show within the time frame they had to work with. It's not that they necessarily wanted her to "interview better than she truly did" its more that they wanted the show itself, with their name on it, to be as good and polished as they demanded of themselves production wise. At least what they believed to be a good product using the standards and techniques they have used for decades on that program Sure it would be great for them to also put out the complete unedited footage on a platform, afterwards, just for posterity if nothing else. And they have released the full answer. But this is more a question of TV platform limitations more than anything. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it's legal it's legal I guess. Or I guess thats why they call it due diligence, if a bank doesn't bother to check then tough beans I suppose. What would happen to you up here if you did this with your real estate holdings? If the court actually uphold the ruling, a lot of rich folks that fund these politicians and judges are going to jail. It is very corrupt especially in NYC. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
