The original HotAir.com article contains several video clips showing the editing that CBS' "60 Minutes" did in order to preserve Kamala. It is true that we don't hate the media enough.

I’d like to see the FCC take their license away. We need bold action. “Outrage” doesn’t get us anywhere.

I was going to suggest that television network executives wake up with a horse's head in their beds.

But that's too cruel to the horses. Maybe they should wake up with Nina Totenberg's or Lesley Stahl's head in their beds instead.

60 Minutes is a major part of the News Organization of CBS, which has just created the Greatest Fraud in Broadcast History. CBS should lose its license, and it should be bid out to the Highest Bidder, as should all other Broadcast Licenses, because they are just as corrupt as CBS — and maybe even WORSE!

60 minutes has been selectively editing and manufacturing evidence since it’s inception... They have and always will be left leaning Democrat shills.

That is a legal avenue since CBS is not fulfilling the objective of its FCC license, namely informing the viewing public. However, I’m sure the FCC is also in bed with the Administration, as is DOJ, so that’s not going anywhere until Trump wins and starts cleaning house.

Stahl lied to cover it up.

Yep, they lied about that, so screw them.

Harris’s 60 Minutes “save my campaign” interview was incoherent, with her usual rambling word salads.
<><>she has avoided the national press and conducted zero press conferences.
<><>political pundits mercilessly mocked her
<><>Billy Binion, a Reason reporter, slammed her as “economically illiterate”
<><>Tim Young ripped her as the “dumbest candidate ever”
<><>one of the first times she sat down for a serious, unscripted interview,
<><>the 60 Minutes host asked honest questions
<><>how would she pay for her increased spending?
<><>she dumbly argued “billionaires” will pay for it.

Harris’ acceptance speech to the 2024 Democratic National Convention drew one of her most thunderous applause lines when she called for an end to the violence and suffering Israel is inflicting in Gaza and for the long-denied fulfillment of Palestinian rights to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination.

This enthusiastic reception by tens of thousands of die-hard Democrats at the convention, was a faithful reflection of where the base of the party stands on Palestinian-Israeli issues.

And now we hear that drjill Biden has been pressuring her husband on Israel’s war on Hamas, saying. “Stop it. Stop it now, Joe.” At a Ramadan event at the White House, Joe Biden reportedly told attendees about “Jill’s sophisticated geopolitical advice.”

60 minutes has been doing this for years. I remember some company they were doing a piece on but I can’t recall which company it was. The company suspected a hit piece so they filmed all the interviews themselves along with 60 minutes. When the piece aired, at one point a voice over says “when we asked the spokesman blah, blah, blah, he said” and then they showed the answer the spokesman gave, which made the company look really bad. The company released the actual footage and it revealed the spokesman was answering a completely different question than what voice over had said. And the answer to the actual question was totally reasonable.

a lot of low- to mid-information IQ voters still trust brands like 60 Minute

They have been pulling that crap for many, many decades. “60 Minutes of Communist Propaganda” is the correct name.

I’m not a saint, but I honestly try to do my best to be an honest and upright person. I simply cannot imagine what it’s like to be as utterly lacking in integrity as these people are

“60 minutes has been doing this for years ... so they filmed all the interviews themselves along with 60 minutes.”

I’m surprised that the interviewees are allowed to do their own filming of an episode. I also don’t understand how the unedited interview became public.

Perhaps CBS always makes unedited interview transcripts or film publicly available.
