With CBS and the whole 60 Minutes kerfuffle???
As we recently outlined, it has been a damaging, credibility-harming few weeks for CBS News. The network violated its own debate rules with a disputed-to-misleading ‘fact check’ of JD Vance at the Vice Presidential debate, then cut off his microphone as he calmly picked apart their assertion. Their morning show was thrown into chaos when some employees melted down over an anchor asking pointed, tough questions of an anti-Israel zealot, resulting in angry recriminations, tears, and a series of embarrassing leaks. Then there was the curious 60 Minutes edit of Kamala Harris’ answer regarding US-Israeli relations, which looked completely different in a teaser clip, compared to what aired on the broadcast itself.

I know we bitch about the MSM coverage of pretty much ‘everything’ these days, but this one is a head scratcher…
Normally, or maybe used to be normally, the company doing the interview would release at least a written transcript of said interview.
This time, zip, nada…
And word salad from CBS, on top of their earlier behavior. I can’t help but wonder if this is a ‘new’ procedure, based on the White House refusing to allow the FBI to release either a transcript or the actual tapes of Robert K. Hur’s interview with Biden over the classified documents scandal (that got quickly swept under the rug).
I guess the latest way to ‘handle’ stuff like this is to bury it, hoping something else will happen to distract the viewing public (like a hurricane or two), or some international crisis like Israel vs. Iran and proxies.
It’s pretty sad when the go to these days for news is overseas papers and media! Granted the reporting may be slanted, but at least it’s out in the open!
We are less than two weeks out from Nov 5th, which is election day. I don’t care WHO you vote for, but I am asking each of you to go vote!
RIGHT OF CITIZENS TO VOTE
FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT
SECTION 1. The right of citizens of the United States to
vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by
any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.
SECTION 2. The Congress shall have power to enforce this
article by appropriate legislation.
This was re enforced by the Voting Rights Act of 1965, HERE. But you still need to go exercise that right!!!
Cynical me keeps saying the winner will be determined by who counts the votes. Hope rests with Trump getting so many votes more than the Ho that the counters won’ be able to change the outcome.
I voted. Living in red state Colorado, my vote for Trump is irrelevant. However, the winner in Congressional District 8, per many pundits, might determine the House majority. I voted for the Republican.
I care who you vote for.
If you vote for a whore that challenges all that our Constitution supports, that sells out american citizens for foreign invaders, we can’t be friends. In fact, you are my enemy.
Why is our government suing states removing illegal alien, undocumented workers from the voting roles. It clearly states in the fourth word the conditions necessary to vote – Citizen. These people are Not in anyway, shape or form a citizen of the United States.
CBS is also taking flak for deceptively editing a recent interview with Speaker Mike Johnson. Fortunately, and to the benefit of all fair-minded Americans, Speaker Johnson brought his own camera and recorded the entire clip, making it painfully obvious that what was aired was taken way out of context. NEVER talk to the media without making your own recording!
All- Understood, and yes, they did the same thing to Johnson!
CBS has a long history of playing fast and loose with interviews. It started with Dan Rather.
Fire in postal collection boxes, ballots stolen from community mail boxes and thrown into storm sewers, judges negating honest and fair voting practices, massive non-citizen voting via various means. Déjà vu all over again, eh, Yogi?
Might have been smarter for Rs to have all agreed to vote at the last minute so Ds wouldn’t know exactly how many fraudulent votes to produce.
