Error? This was no error.
Find someone of retirement age and let him or her take the fall.
It is a little ironic that NBC can mean either “Natural Born Citizen” i.e. the “Birther Movement” or “Newly Born Communist” or “Not Believable Commentary” or well, whatever.
Wouldn’t it be great if NBC would actually focus on Obama’s NBC status for a few months without mocking people who really have inquiring minds?
Before this is over, it will be very crowded under that bus.
Why do I smell a bigtime “coverup”? Oh, let’s see. It’s NBC. That explains it.
If I had ever done this selective editing my editors would have hung my balls on the wall as a lesson to other reporters. They had integrity.
Today’s news media executives have no honor, integrity, professionalism, and common sense.
In other words, they suck!
I think I’ll go out an burn my old press card, or frame it as a relic from a time when there was honor in journalism.
I see a promotion coming.
Please let it be Matt Lauer.
Lying bastards...
Ya got to be drooling in a cup to sit around and watch these state run broadcasters concoct lies. They have no credibility and haven’t for many years.
Error?
It was calculating and bald faced lie.
Unless the means of disseminating news/information is completely reinvented, we are pretty much toast as a country. I thought Steve Jobs could’ve pulled it off, but I’m not very optimistic now. Propoganda is too easy for the bad guys to spread and for the gullible to lap up.
“There was no clear indication on Thursday of what, if any, disciplinary actions would be taken against the producer or other staff involved in the incident.”
They’ll probably be nominated for a Pulizer prize!
I’m curious why no one is attacking the dispatcher who dared ask this controversial question?
OTOH, I’m glad this altering of the audio happened. Somewhat. Maybe it’ll wake up some people to not worship everything the media spews.
That has got to rank up there with:
fake but accurate
It depends on what the meaning of the word "is" is.
“Error”? No, it was a flat out purposeful lie.
This is horse manure.
Those scumbags at NBC knew in 30 seconds with one phone call who edited that clip.
The stench of this thing is overwhelming.
NBC— we don’t cover the news, we create it!
Misleading? Deceptive, slanderous, perverse, manipulative...
NBC reminds of Emily Litella, Gilda Radner’s SNL character. When she’s wrong she just smiled and said “Never mind”. That’s exactly what NBC will try to do unless forced to do the right thing. Yeah. Hold your breath on that one.
It’s good that he’s “seasoned” cuz even at NBC, he’s done.
