CNN Calls Out the Harris Campaign's Dirty Willful Lies on Social Media

[lustylad]

Hmm... this came out last month.

God bless CNN. Maybe they're genuinely trying to call honest balls and strikes again. Maybe real journalism isn't dead?

But one thing we can count on - Kamala's dirty tricksters are as active and unbowed as ever. They will keep spewing out their lies right up until Election Day.

Yep. Despite all the disses from the right, CNN plays it pretty well down the center. Facts first, at least, before opinion.

You're ducking the point, tommy. We're not talking about facts versus opinion.

We're talking about "selective editing" - something Mr. Gristle started a few threads about.

Did you even read the link? Here's what CNN called out the Kamala campaign for:


1. Misleadingly describing a Trump comment about his supporters...

2. Deceptively clipping and misleadingly describing a Trump comment about immigration...

3. Deceptively clipping and misleadingly describing a Trump comment about his 2017 Charlottesville remark...

4. Deceptively clipping and inaccurately quoting a JD Vance quote about veterans’ health care...

5. Deceptively clipping and falsely describing a Trump quote about penalties for damaging monuments...

6. Deceptively clipping and misleadingly describing a Trump comment about taxes...

7. Cutting out critical words from a Vance comment about unions...

8. Falsely describing a comment from a Trump ally...


It's beginning to look like a pattern, dontcha think?

Selective editing. Sorta like this:

If I say "abortion should be banned in the last trimester of pregnancy"... would it be ok for you to run ads clipping the last 6 words?

Is that cool in your book?

Fox is doing the exact same heavy editing techniques with trump. Why is that ok for him, but not for Kamala?
