John Nolte:
Deceptive journalistic practices at NBC News show no sign of slowing down. This latest attempt to selectively edit audio/video in order to benefit Barack Obama represents the seventh such act of willful, intentional journalistic malpractice. NBC News is already being sued over one instance involving George Zimmerman. Via Newsbusters, here is the latest, which occurred Thursday at MSNBC.
The whole idea behind this edit was to make it look as though Republican congressman Pete Sessions was claiming that giving food stamps to the poor meant you were giving food stamps to rapists and child molesters. In other words, poor people are criminals.
As you can see, though, what Sessions really said and meant was the exact opposite.
Since NBC News has begun this regular practice of deceptively editing audio, video, and photos in order to make Obama’s political critics and foes look bad, the rest of the media as a whole have hardly bothered to notice.
Oh, some who screw up in media are given all kinds of hell from their colleagues. Howard Kurtz, for example. But Kurtz’s honest (but big) mistake was to be critical of a left-wing sacred cow.
nbc ….what a class outfit ….must like looking up and seeing univision above them in the ratings
I’ll bet that Richard Wheeler doesn’t see anything wrong with what his “free press” is reporting. Stuff like this has been going on for many years, but since it all is directed against republicans, Rich thinks it is OK. How many black on white crimes are not being reported, or Muslim agains non-Muslim crimes, or the Muslim honor killings that are going on?
For many years I have wondered why people don’t sue the propaganda media for things they have done to some people. I would like to see all of those people get together and start a class action law suit.
If memory serves, NBC stands for Nothing But Crap.
I heard today on the FoxNews Geraldo Rivera show that the prosecution will say during the Zimmerman trial that on the 911 tape (for which the judge has disallowed arguments) the screaming stops after the shot, and that that proves Zimmerman shot Martin — and that it was Martin who was screaming.
Problem is this: It was Zimmerman who was getting the cr#ap beat out of his head, he was screaming, saw fading to black and shot Martin dead in self defense.
Zimmerman’s life was in danger. Once the threat was over, Zimmerman stops screaming. This was over a few minutes with Martin’s autopsy showing only a scratch on one of his little fingers. Zimmerman was the one who was beaten, bleeding, with a broken nose, scratches and scrapes.
It was Martin who previously with friends would go out and look for fights (not to be allowed in court) (how ridiculous). Martin was a thug.
The use of Martin’s picture in news stories from when he was a younger kid demonstrates the repugnant fraud that the media (MSM) is INCLUDING FOX NEWS! They wanted sympathy for the culprit.
Zimmerman is innocent. With the fact and evidence that Zimmerman was the injured person, it makes sense that it would have been he who was screaming and in mortal danger. Pounding someone’s head hard on the pavement or ground as Martin did to Zimmerman can kill a person. Zimmerman had to defend his life by killing Martin dead.
Special note: It was a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” situation for the judge in the Zimmerman trial when it came to considering whether or not the 911 recording would be allowed to be supported by arguments from various “specialists”.
If she let them argue different and confusing conclusions, they introduce reasonable doubt BIG TIME.
If she doesn’t allow argument by “experts” on the tapes (which was her decision), she drops the prosecutions main piece of evidence (even though there has never been agreement among the experts as to who is screaming).
I do believe in the idea that it was Zimmerman who was screaming, since as I stated above, he was the one who was getting beaten badly and the injuries to the back of Zimmerman’s head could only have been caused by Martin situated above Zimmerman in order to slam his head on ground or pavement; making the cuts and bruises on the back of Zimmerman’s head and a broken nose. I do believe that Zimmerman is justified in having killed Martin.
End of story.
I guess MSNBC really meant it when they said journalism is no longer part of their brand.
Wouldn’t it be great if they filmed themselves all through their editing process so we could learn all about ”objective” reporters?
/off.
Maybe now we all will understand that the MSM is no friend to freedom. When Bush’s attorney General legally fired a federal attorney, he was vilified for months in the media, constant pressure to resign. contrast that with their handling of Fast and Furious, Benghazi, Nsa etc. The biggest lie of course is the handling of where the imposter in chief was born and to whom. We are being led down the one world order path and very few in elected office cares, no on the contrary, people like McCain And his sock puppet Graham and now Jeff Flake, are on board. maybe we still have time to right the ship, but with vote fraud now a science to the left ,and quite frankly the rino right, can we get a fair and honest election? Never in my 70 years Have I been more afraid for our country and way of life, even after all I have lived through. We had Viet Nam and its birth of the foaming at the mouth demonstrators here in this country. We had the riots in our inner cities Detroit and else where. By the way what has Detroit turned into since? No my friends the MSM is not a friend to freedom and our way of life and must be fought.
@jainphx: I totally agree with your assessments… it’s BAD.. REAL BAD and getting worse

I’m sure there is a manual that the new hires have to go by.

Let’s not forget about Clinton firing all of the federal attorneys, but the propaganda media didn’t say anything. Just Fox News.
