EXCLUSIVE: Open mic captures press coordinating questions for Romney
The Right Scoop ^ | 9/12/12

Posted on 09/12/2012 11:27:01 AM PDT by KansasGirl

Before Romney issued his statement today, an open mic capture the press coordinating questions to ask Romney, with one saying “no matter who he calls on we’re covered on the one question”. I’ve transcribed it to the best of my ability but the audio is below for verification:

I’ve labeled one as the CBS News reporter as I believe it is Nancy Cordes who works for CBS News. I’ve I gotten that wrong I apologize and will correct.

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: …pointing out that the Republicans… *unintelligible* …Obama….

CBS REPORTER: That’s the question.

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: *unintelligible*

CBS REPORTER: Yeah that’s the question. I would just say do you regret your question.

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Your question? Your statement?

CBS REPORTER: I mean your statement. Not even the tone, because then he can go off on…

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: And then if he does, if we can just follow up and say ‘but this morning your answer is continuing to sound…’ – *becomes unintelligble*

CBS REPORTER: You can’t say that..

**Later**

CBS REPORTER: I’m just trying to make sure that we’re just talking about, no matter who he calls on we’re covered on the one question.

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Do you stand by your statement or regret your statement?

You do not have to prove it; the accusation is what matter to the press.

I dont think Obama even wants to win. He is going to be set up in a 35 million dollar home and live the good life in Hawaii.

Considering that the current situations in Egypt and Libya are in large part the result of Obama’s policies, I was surprised that the news media let him get away without answering a question. No, not really.

I really don’t understand how the GOP hopes to win any election when 99% of the media is actively supporting the DNC.

And the courts
And the academic community
And the Temples, Mosques and Churches (at least many)

But not the people.

I watched this morning as Romney took questions and the way the reporters spewed their hatred was sickening.

The GOP failed to point ut with facts how th emedia is bias or call them out, they are still not doing it and they think if they play nice with the media the media might like them.

frigging idiots, the media is left hard wing they hate the GOP and will do anything to get their messiah elected again.

The GOP needs ot get on teir live cameras and ask them “why do you ignore the uneomployment rate ?”
Why do you not ingorm your viewers that the state dept under obama said sorry for this attack”

Hell it is time fir the GOP to get balls and the likes of Peggy Noonan the elitist snotty nosed old guard of the party said Romney was wrong for going after jug ears

WTH

Rush L mentioned this earlier in his program today.

He said he did not know where the audio was from and his staff had been unable to locate a source for the audio.

GOP candidates of the conservative stripe need to learn from Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, John Kasich, Rick Scott, Nikki Haley, Kelly Ayotte, Haley barbour etc who are all smart politicians and WINNERS.

Their “offices” are “news vans” parked in parking lots.

The next president is going to inherit a mess of unimaginable proportions. If it's Obama, he and the media will blame Bush. If it's Romney, the press will blame him and his policies until the people BEG for Hillary to take his place in 2016.

Rush needs to check with WMAL in DC (WMAL carries his program 12-3). Chris Plante, who’s on from 9-12 had the audio up and running within minutes of Romney finishing his remarks. I don’t know if it was the keen ears of his producer that heard it or what, but he had it up within minutes....

From government schools to the media they’re trying to hold our minds behind an iron curtain of information.

Looks like Romney has an out for calling on CBS ever. If they whine he can just tell them he assumed they had coordinated their questions with other reporters so “they’re covered.”

The next president will have to deal with a financial and economic system collapse.

I’d much rather it was a nominal “Christian” who actually likes America

than an anti-American Marxist Muslim.

Me either. R/R CANNOT play nice with these folks. The gloves MUST come off. Hopefully, this will convince them of that, but I won't bet on it.
