Rush Limbaugh Thinks That Video of Clinton Collapse Is Fake
Mediaite ^ | September 12th, 2016 | Sam Reisman

Posted on 09/12/2016 1:01:01 PM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Rush Limbaugh thinks that there are two separate videos of Hillary Clinton stumbling into her car — but one of them is a fake.

Limbaugh came upon this idea apparently because the radio host does not understand that, often, pirated videos will appear on YouTube having been mirrored, or flipped, from the original source.

Limbaugh said:

In the first video, the van approaches from the left. So what they want you to believe is that they’ve simply flipped this to show you a new angle. But you can’t flip the video. I mean, you can play a video backwards, forwards, but it doesn’t change the angle you’re looking at. The footage is identical.

The second video purports to show a new angle. And this new angle shows Hillary in even greater distress, or I should say gives you a better view of the distress, than the first video. But what is intriguing to me is that nobody seems to have noticed that it can’t be the same video. How can, in one video, the van approach from the left and the door on the right side of the van open and Mrs. Clinton gets in. In the next video, same setting, but the van approaches from the right with the street being on the left of it. And then the door opens in the van, which would be the left side of the van and then Mrs. Clinton gets in.

And all of the people in the video appear to be properly placed, and they appear to be reversed, lapel pins are on the opposite lapel in the second video. It’s a really great trick, but the second video can’t be — one of the two can’t be real.

Check out “hillary curses at staff during coughing fit”

It could fool a lot of people except the dubbers voice is less grating than her.

That being the transcript it’s clear he should have sorted the mirror issue out before going on air. His own confusion about the videos did no service to his point about her health. And now look what his own neophyte discussion engendered. Confusion.

Read his words with some objectivity instead of malice.

I didn't read the transcript, but I read enough quoted excerpts here on this thread to form an opinion. Perhaps my opinion is wrong. I can only judge based on what data I have, but from what I've seen, Rush made a bit of a mess today.

Malice? Hardly.

“he should have sorted the mirror issue out before going on air. “

He keeps showing up unprepared. Last week he went on the air Thursday and said he forgot to watch the presidential forum!

You keep asking that question on almost every Rush thread, ad nauseum.......So what's your point

We know you don't like Rush so give it up jerk..There comes a time when even the most obnoxious jackass eventually realizes it's not welcome in the barn...........

Rush clearly stated that you play the video and record it from a mirror

Aye, aye, aye.....

Please tell me you're only paraphrasing what he said. He can't really believe that's how it's done, can he?

“tech wiz” Rush should shfph sometimes. Dan Bongino, an actual Secret Service agent, put the lie to all the nonsensical bs yesterday. It was SOP and the big black dude is an agent because Bongino confirmed as much. And as far as there being an alternate tape, it is simply not feasible, not enough time and all the players are the same.

I did review the mirrored video and the original video. I came across a You Tube video that makes the case that the second video, which they mirrored, but was taken by someone standing next to the original video maker. There is a slight change of camera angle in the video that was mirrored. It did give me another look at the EpiPen rolling around their feet. However, the original video shows that pen rolling out to the right of that upright piller and getting bumped against the man’s shoe. You see it clearly. That is the real evidence we should be talking about.

This is the video talking about two videos taken side by side with one being mirrored:

This is the two mirrored videos that focus on the EpiPen on the ground. Look closely:

No that’s the real one. You can tell because it has audio.

I listened to Rush since pre Clinton times but, in the last year He has just become too tiresome for me.
I started to find him long winded and so slow to make a point anymore.
I’ll tune him in again after the election.

...if the same individual who copied it into a mirror image was the same person who put it up on Drudge, they went out of their way to add font saying it was a, "Closeup from a different angle". I'm just sayin. Who knows.

Yeah. Could'a happened just like that.

No doubt, Matt was moving like the wind to get the stuff posted. His gut instinct would have been pinging like crazy about this being one of the biggest stories of the whole election.

Thanks for posting that excerpt of the transcript, Jane.

It proves without a doubt that Rush is woefully ignorant about current technology on such things. That’s actually really embarrassing.

Very early in the primaries it was Rush who pointed out Trump and his brave new openness that made me stop and take a good look at Trump. Trump then made a few missteps. After that he started to turn to Cruz (so did I until Cruz turned creepy) and started calling us Trumpsters and Trumpists which made me stop listening to him for a while. I have given him another chance but I listen with baited breath. No one but Trump for me now!

Yes, the video was FLIPPED! Look at the background buildings. This is not rocket science Rush.

This is as idiotic as the ‘other video showing a different angle’ when it was simply the original video playing on TV as it was being recorded with a cell phone at an angle to the TV! LOL.

Pathetic. There is ONLY one video.

...something coming down the tube...billy has shut-up and disappeared...

Oh man, you just made that lingering thought in my mind pop right to the surface.

I've been noticing that too, but with all of the rapid fire news coming out, I didn't give that one thought time to percolate.

You're right. That's a sign.

I think Free Republic has been taken over by a lot of Democrat Underground trolls.

It is amazing to see that the mods are allowing this.
