It did, and they did. And we rightfully called them silly.
Interesting...a computer clitch. It was a finger push.

The Distort and Morph plugin pack for iMovie contains the following Transitions:
"Morph Over"
This transition Morphs between two clips. These can be movies or images but as with many transitions, the duration of each must be at least half the duration of the Morph you want to produce.
1. Locate the two clips you wish to Morph between, making sure they are next to each other in the timeline. Select the second of the two.
2. Find the "Morph Over(ImageIP)" Transition in the transitions panel, and select it.
3. You should see a preview of the transtion played in the mini-preview window.
4. Choose the duration of the transitions by setting the speed slider.
5. You can press the "Preview" button to see a larger preview in the main window.
6. To "Apply" to render the transition, click on and drag the "Morph Over" transition icon down to the movie timeline and drop it between the two clips you have chosen.
This will produce a new transition clip which takes half it's time from the end of the first clip, and half from the beginning of the second.
*Note that the transition is based on the frames at the point where the transition begins and ends - NOT on the last and first frames of the original clips. For example - a transition lasting 20 frames will morph between the frame 10 from the end of clip1 and the 10th frame of clip2.
The sound of the clips is not affected.
That was a political ad, produced by GOP resources. CNN is supposed to be an "unbiased" news source.
The word rats was a brief afterglow from the word Democrats in a Republican Advertisement. It had absolutely nothing to do with a claimed technical glitch by a news network while a public political figure was giving a speech.
Get real. IT WAS AN AD BY THE REPUBLICANS THAT WAS IN QUESTION. DO YOU COPY THAT???
Good grief.
What was alleged in that instance was false. The word was moving across the screen. BUR also can be stopped similarly.
That was a paid political ad by the Republican party, not a live feed from an allegedly disinterested news network.
"And we rightfully called them silly."
And we still rightfully call them 'Rats - they made it obvious that the shoe fits.
