Note to self: Print this out. Leave copies laying around in strategic locations.
I knew they had done some edits, but that’s over the top. They lopped out entire sections that show she had better command of the subject than they wanted to present.
ABC is no better that CBS & NBC in their bias and this proves it. Did they not think this would come back to bite them in the rear?
Done.
I would suggest that Palin start quoting her stuff that was edited out of the “interview.”
Palin: “As I said in the interview, ‘Yadda, yadda, yadda.”
Reporter/Questioner: “But you didn’t say that in the interview.”
Palin: “Why I certainly did! You mean they edited that out too?”
I disagree. Republicans should force the story line on the media...not the other way around. I suggest the Republicans NOT give interviews and have the media continue with their nonsense. Even with 24/7 Obamessiah worship and McCain/Palin bashing the polls are turning in McCain’s favor...BIGTIME!
Putting Palin in front of the press will do nothing to change this and only give them ammunition to use against her and McCain.
This isn’t grounds for pulling ABC’s license. Let’s get real.
I have phony outrage over this.
Thanks to other internet outlets, I was able to read the entire Palin - Gibson interview.
It’s interesting that the answers that made Governor Palin look good were left out.
How on earth can I trust ABC News to tell the whole story, much less the truth?
I don’t think Gibson’s / ABC’s best efforts will manage to secure a victory for Barak Obama.
Nice try.
No cigar.
Sincerely,

You signed up today just to defend this?
Are you kidding me?
My message to ABC:
You have lost a viewer. The blatant editing and manipulation of the Sarah Palin interview was the last straw. I used to be a faithful viewer but I am flabbergasted by this. Since when has the network news outlets become a propaganda outlet for the DNC? It appears that your primary objective was to damage Sarah Palin. You failed miserably. I am a Democrat voter but now I am beginning to question everything as it seems the media is dishonest.
Can the FCC make ABC reshow the ENTIRE interview (word for word without cuts) again on prime TV? As well as put it on their website (word for word without cuts)? Wouldn’t what they did fall under FRAUD or some kind of broadcasting crime? Where’s the ACLU on this? Oh, it has to be an interview by a conservative reporter/station for them to get involved. Forgot.
Not surprising. Obama’s interview with CBS was edited to make him appear more knowledgeable, eloquent and lucid than he really is, while Palin’s interview with ABC was edited to make her appear to be exactly the opposite...and also to shore up the left’s attempt to paint her as a radical “Christianist”, which must be meant as a progressive counter to the radical Islamists that same people want wiped off the earth. Unfair and unbalanced coverage as usual.
In addition to sending this to
- your email distribution lists
**send it to all Women’s rights organizations, Hillary/Puma forums etc.
The Pumas will love this stuff.
Has anybody noticed tht Mika with Morning Joe is starting to flip to Palin because of the unfair bias?
Yes, Charlie, they were.
By all means, yes, let's do get serious.
This explains why the “Palin Favors War Against Iran” and “Palin Favors War with Russia” headlines that popped up right after the interview was aired disappeared so suddenly.
This is all you have to say to Charlie:
