Andrea Mitchell: NBC Hasn't "Authenticated" Obama Redistribution Clip, Won't Air
Real Clear Politics ^ | 09/19/2012 | Staff

Posted on 09/19/2012 10:42:07 AM PDT by nhwingut

On her MSNBC program this afternoon, NBC News' Andrea Mitchell said the network would not air the clip of then-State Senator Barack Obama endorsing redistribution in 1988 because the network could not "authenticate" the clip.

"Let's explain this redistribution issue because we have not authenticated this 14-year-old tape from Loyola College when Barack Obama was a state senator. So because we have not independently at NBC news and MSNBC authenticated it, we're not airing it," Mitchell said.

"But the basic issue is they're accusing President Obama, as John Sununu said to be yesterday, of class warfare. That is trying to change the subject," Mitchell added.

They could not and did not authenticate Obama’s entire early life. Oh well.

Well, it’s fully understandable, I say, the video tape might have been, uh, photoshopped!

Only Democrats are allowed to change the subject.

It's the law.

As opposed to the 5 people in the MSNBC audience who would miss it.

There are times when I think we should physically attack journalists. It seems to work for the Muslims.

`Liar Liar’ dialogue, updated: “A Day In the Life of Andrea”

Andrea: [while hearing Senator Obama argue for redistribution on a video]
Andrea: Oh, come on! How can it be proved that the male voice on that tape is not Mr. Romney himself?
Obama: [voice on tape, muffled] Larry, you are such a better lover than my wife!
Andrea: NBC objects! I object!
Public: And why is that, Ms Mitchell?
Andrea: It’s devastating to our candidate!
Public: Overruled.
Andrea: Good call!

Andrea: [having farted in an elevator] It was me!

Office Worker: Hey, Andrea, how’s it hanging?
Andrea: [groans] Short, shriveled, and always to the left.

Guy in the Washroom: What the hell are you doing?
Andrea: I’m kicking my ass! Do you mind?

Was this videotape faxed from a Kinkos near Waco?

He said it 4 years ago to Joe the Plumber

Michele Obama said there was no American dream

Hillary said “We’re going to take things away from you for the common good”

how is it not authenticated?

M Kelly showed this early tape plus 3 more (one with Joe the Plumber) where BO is talking about liking redistribution of wealth on her FOX broadcast today.

Maybe Andrea looked up the definition of redistributing the wealth, which is “socialism/communism.

UPDATE (@2:31PM ET):: MSNBC's Tamron Hall just announced on air that the network has now authenticated the tape.

What's the excuse now?
