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.

Bttt.
5.56mm
And you sir or madam...are an idiot.
If one of the videos in question is merely a mirror image of the first, then there's only one video, i.e., the headline does not mislead, and Limbaugh should be embarrassed.
"Why are we taking a hearse? Why are we taking a hearse?"
Sadly, somebody or other out there is sure to believe that's actually what she said.
Your’re right.
rush has become totally irrelevant.
The stakes at this election are higher than in any other the past century.
You are damn right to think anyone who attacks Trump and gives succour to a candidate who will destroy our sovereignty and the Constitution is a traitor.
You’re an idiot if you believe that.
What? Rush, the uber Apple tech maven cheerleader unaware that videos can be mirrored both horizontally and vertically. Apple's Quicktime Pro had provisions for this for years.
My Android phone has a video app that can do the same.
That’s a mirror effect video.
It’s the same video but with a mirror image.
I haven't listed to Limbaugh since he wimped out on Obama's eligibility back in 2008. I have no interest in what that gutless coward has to say.
I was in the car and heard what Rush said. All he said was the 2nd video was a mirror of the 1st one and had the same information and no new camera angles or whatever. Rush just stated the obvious.
The headline is wrong.
Yea Rush is pretty much a twit.
Yet you comment on what is reported he said, though wrong, and take it to be true. That’s no better than how a liberal reacts.
We can single-issue ourselves to death.
Then why didn't Rush just say, "One of the videos is simply a mirror image of the first."?
Mr Highly Trained Broadcast Specialist can't seem to explain himself as well as the average Freeper. Lots of Freepers commented on the mirror image thing yesterday without tripping over their tongues.
Rush is totally never Hillary. You morons who think he’s in the same league as Levin or Beck either don’t listen or you’re a bunch of trolls.
Nothing he said denies Hillary has serious problems, and he spent the whole show today talking about that and her basket full of gaffes.
Tuh-rolling, tuh-rolling, tuh-rolling
He wasted an hour of my life but I cooperated since I was driving. For someone that can be good he can be pretty crappy.
As if he stopped the transportation.
Some people are really full of themselves.
