Editing Out of Context

Charlie Gibson Has a 'Dan Rather' Moment

Do you remember the 'typed memo' from George Bush's commander? Yes, it was later shown to have been produced on a word processor that was not even invented at the time. We watched the ABC interview with the Vice Presidential nominee and my wife remarked: "They're sure cutting up her answers, aren't they." Score one for the observant woman watching at home.

Turns out it was worse than she thought. This Piece by Samuel Silver in Jewish World Review catches ABC in the willful fabrication of untruth. The twisting of Governor Palin praying for the troops into her saying that this is some sort of 'divine crusade.' Of course the whole segment totally misrepresented Governor Palin's actual words and sentiments.

Is it too much to ask that all candidates be given a fair forum, especially in the introductory interview?

Update:

Here Larry Elder Sheds the Light on the 'Bush Doctrine' Portion of the Interview. One more reason I read Jewish World Review! In fact, 'mainstream media' guys, take note: I'm far more interested in how the theology of James Cone might affect the presidency and the ideology of Bill Ayers. I think these are more clearly stated than this 'Bush Doctrine' thing.

Sean Hannity has more Associations We Should Be Concerened About.
