CBS Busted Again For Deceptive Edits And Manufacturing Responses During Interviews

This Time By Speaker Mike Johnson.  

One of the most blatant examples of media manipulation was recently discovered when CBS 60-Minutes deceptively edited* a response from Kamala Harris, replacing her ‘word salad’ answer with a completely different answer to an entirely different question.

This past Sunday, House Speaker Mike Johnson appeared on CBS Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan and the editing and manufacturing was done again before broadcast.  Unbeknownst to CBS, Speaker Johnson’s staff were recording the interview from his side of the camera.  Johnson released a series of video segments today (via Twitter) showing how CBS intentionally took out the important elements of his responses.
The segments are embedded below for review.  You can see how CBS chose to edit the answers to cut out the important components and citations for Speaker Johnson’s responses.  The manipulation is very clear. 
WATCH:

Segment #1: “I recently traveled to NC and victims of Hurricane Helene told me nearly two weeks after landfall, the Biden-Harris Administration had STILL not provided them with all the resources they desperately needed. But CBS selectively edited OUT ENTIRELY this first-hand perspective.”

Segment #2: “Apparently, CBS also doesn’t want you to hear about Virginia Gov. Youngkin, who is trying to clean the state’s voter rolls so non-American citizens can’t vote there. We need more states doing this, but the Biden-Harris Administration is SUING VIRGINIA and trying to STOP it.”

Segment #3: “The Biden-Harris Admin let millions of illegal aliens in our country. So, the House passed the SAVE Act to ensure only American citizens vote in American elections. CBS edited that out and focused on 2020 instead of immediate threats to election integrity.”
