A report commissioned by Planned Parenthood has found that the sting videos targeting its tissue donation practices contain intentionally deceptive edits and inaccurately transcribed conversations and are missing footage. But there is no evidence that the anti-abortion group behind the attack made up dialogue.
The report by research firm Fusion GPS attempts to undermine the videos political, legal and journalistic value. The Center for Medical Progress claims that the eight tapes it has released show evidence that Planned Parenthood is making money by trafficking fetal tissue and organs.
The womens health organization strongly denies those accusations and has repeatedly said the tapes are highly edited and misleading. The forensic report, which relied on video and transcription experts who were hired by Fusion GPS and not associated with Planned Parenthood, is the first comprehensive account of the videos discrepancies. It was sent to congressional leadership on Thursday to counter Hill investigations of Planned Parenthoods work.
Planned Parenthood also told lawmakers that only two of the 59 Planned Parenthood affiliates are currently involved in fetal tissue research and that there is no evidence any affiliate has broken federal or state laws.
The attacks on us have the intended purpose of making it appear that fetal tissue research is an enormous focus of Planned Parenthood, Cecile Richards, the president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, wrote in a letter to House Speaker John Boehner and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Leader Harry Reid. But the simple fact is that 99 percent of our health centers have no involvement in this work.

Hey Evil Baby Killers, give some specifics on how these were manipulated or shut up.

No need to read further.
Even if that is true, and I have no reason to believe people who have no qualms about butchering babies, the fact is that 100% of their "health centers" butcher babies.
Report commissioned by Al Capone shows FBI selective in prosecuting mafia figures.
(Yes,I know he was never tried)
Kinda like Iran inspecting their own nuclear sights no?
To say the obvious “the raw footage was edited” and equate that with deceit is no different than news organizations do every day.
What has to be irrefutably shown is manipulation of edited frame dialogue. IOW, there is no ‘there’ here.
Obfuscation, diversion (squirrel) and all that crap.
And all of the raw footage is available on line for inspection.
This “research firm” doesn’t work for the courts, the military, etc. It’s a dirt-digging political ops firm.
They are just attempting to put a bug in the ear of the low information people who support such stupidity....
Admitting the truth lower down in the article doesn’t really matter. The writer is counting on few people reading past the headline.
Sites.
“only two of the 59 Planned Parenthood affiliates are currently involved in fetal tissue research”
Denver, Houston, California..? I’m confused...
“Manipulated” can mean edited for time, length, clarity.....notice the headline didn’t say “inaccurate”.
In other news,
O.J. is still looking for the real killer.
The facts and content were not manipulated and thats ALL THAT MATTERS
there was no widespread evidence of substantive video manipulation.

From the article.
exactly, these baby killers are trying to deflect attention away from their killing of babies and selling parts, oh sorry tissue.
Every story ever broadcast by the lamestream media has been edited. The big difference is that the lamestream media refuses to release their unedited footage.
Remember Katie Couric’s interview of Sarah Palin? 99% of the footage was cut out and a very carefully edited 1% was broadcast.
From now on, I would like to see every Republican Presidential and Vice Presidential candidate demand copies of the complete raw feed of all interviews as a condition for giving any. The lamestream media company will be free to broadcast what they want, but as soon as they broadcast any of it then the candidates will be free to use any of the raw feed however they want.
