Well in person testimony is subject to cross examination. So there’s a difference.
Gateway pundit does that crap on purpose.

Lying on one still constitutes perjury.

I believe that in order for an affidavit to be accepted into evidence at trial, that the affiant needs to be available to be cross-examined? I am not an attorney, but this would seem to be necessary

"Well in person testimony is subject to cross examination."

The poster was probably confusing affidavits (written testimony) with in-person depositions. At the time of writing such documents, there is no "cross examination". That only occurs in court. Legal types?

And if it goes to court, the authors of the affidavits can be required to testify in person.

Gateway Pundit overstates things all the time, but this is nothing on that scale. Affidavits are testimony.
