Why Alex Jones secretly recorded Megyn Kelly interview
NY Post ^ | June 16, 2017 | Chris Perez

Posted on 06/16/2017 7:00:26 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Alex Jones released audio on Thursday night of his entire interview with Megyn Kelly — saying he secretly recorded the controversial sit-down because he “knew it was all crap.”

The Infowars host posted a video online, along with a teaser clip, around 8:45 p.m. and claimed he would be posting the full tape on the conspiracy website later in the evening.

“I’ve never done this in 22 years, I’ve never recorded another journalist, but I knew it was a fraud, that it was a lie,” Jones said in the video, recalling how Kelly approached him about the interview.

“God, she was like, ‘I want to get steaks with you, I’m obsessed with you, oh my God,’ wiggling around in her seat. It was all crap,” he explained. “I knew it was all a lie. I said Sandy Hook happened, and she wouldn’t even put it in the promo pieces. So we’re going to release, oh yeah, we’re going to release the pre-interview. And then when they put their fraud out on Sunday — which I’ve asked them not to air because they’re misrepresenting who I am and saying I’m as bad as Saddam Hussein, or Jeffrey Dahmer, or Charles Manson — we’ve got the whole interviews here … We’ve got it all … It’s all going to come out.”

The clip that accompanied Jones’ tweet featured a short audio recording of Kelly, seemingly assuring the 43-year-old that her questions wouldn’t be tough.

“All I can do is give you my word and I don’t double-cross,” she can be heard saying at one point.

I’m glad he did.

Everyone should record their interviews with the Fake Media.

In fact, anyone should record anyone conversation has with anyone on the left, because all they do is lie.

Any time you are asked to give an interview with a journalist you should only agree to it if your own people are there to record it.

With so much mutual suspicion and animosity, why did either agree to an interview in the first place?

They’re so prone to getting cute with the editing to make any given conservative interviewee appear to have said something that they didn’t say, that I’m surprised anyone finds this controversial in the least. Only a fool would go into that lion’s den and not come out with concrete evidence of what was actually said.

HA!

I learned this over 35 years ago.

The USAF Commander for our multi-Billion $$ contract was interviewed by NBC.
They edited the crap out of it and made him look pretty bad.

The result was a change in DOD policy that ALL interviews be taped by DOD also.

Alex does a public service. More people are on to the Pravda Press. Look DJT now is at 50% in the polls even with the lying press.

Can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time

I was interviewed by a college paper years ago and the version in the paper was nothing like what I had said. A department head told me “You’re putting your reputation on the line when you do a print interview.”

Of course, now days a recorded interview is dangerous, too. One of the first things taught in a college radio production class was how to edit to make it sound like someone said something they didn’t say. I already knew that but I thought it was interesting they were teaching this to kids and obviously thought it was important. This was at the University of Texas.

Imagine if everyone did this, then released the actual video before the fame news edited one? The fake news media would die.

Alex Jones is just entertainment...he admitted that in court. He’s fake just like the fake news, but this sure is fun to watch.

I love that he is beating the fake news media at their own game. Too funny.

I prefer the way Alex Jones did it though. Secretly tape it is much better because then you expose the huxsters in the fake news media.

There’s no way he should have to do it secretly. I would make a condition of giving the interview that I also be able to record the interview so that I can release this if the interview is edited in a misleading manner when broadcast. I would be willing to agree not to release my copy before the thing airs, to protect their investment, but would certainly demand to be able to protect myself this way.

While such recording may be almost “legal” to reveal covertly recorded conversation publicly is still against a host of US communications laws.

Great move by Jones. He should have waited just a little longer so they don’t have time to fix some of the most outrageous editing.
