“>>Cruz knew.
Prove it.”
Cruz knew because Daddy Cruz was one of two Cruz campaign people that heard Rubio’s actual comment.
But Tyler ignored that info and pushed a video and transcript that they knew was false.
So they circulated a slander of a man’s Christian faith, when they knew it was a slander.
Charming.

That doesn’t seem to add up on the timeline.

Tyler’s tweet reiterates the same question asked by the DP College kids:
“Wish we knew what book he was reading (perhaps Ted Cruz’s A Time for Truth?) Comment below and take a guess at what you think he was reading.”

Sunday, Feb. 21, 8:52 a.m.: Cruz Communications Director Rick Tyler tweets the link to the post on our blog with the video, saying “Watch Marco Rubio’s awkward remark about the book a Cruz staffer was reading in the hotel lobby. What book was it?†He posted the same comment on Facebook with the link around that time. He later deleted the posts.

Meanwhile the kids were still trying to tell “GOT” from “NOT” - while they were supposedly conspiring with the Cruzers?
[Sunday, Feb. 21, afternoon: While driving back to Philadelphia, we begin receiving comments on Twitter and the post itself about the contents of the video. Several people question whether Rubio said “not†or “got†before “many answers in there,†referring to the book. Later, some suggest maybe he is saying “every answer’s in there.†We examine the video, breaking down the audio to the very syllable at the beginning of the sentence. We continued to believe we heard an “N†sound.]
The risk from that sort of conspiracy blowing up would outweigh any potential benefits - especially considering there are college kids involved blabbing about everything they’re doing.
This realtime information stuff is challenging ehh? Too bad the failure to adapt is irresponsibly destroying people.
