Another MSNBC Scandal? Blaze Readers at Campaign Event Claim Network Misled in Video of Rally Chant
The Blaze ^

Posted on 09/27/2012 2:51:45 PM PDT by Perdogg

On Wednesday, MSNBC aired a clip of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney leading what looks like a failed “Romney-Ryan” chant at a campaign stop in Ohio on Tuesday, prompting an embarrassed Joe Scarborough to mutter “Oh, sweet Jesus” and a purse-lipped Mika Brzezinski to ask “What’s wrong with those people?” You can see our coverage of Scarborough’s outburst here, but we’ve included the clip as a refresher:

Radio news yesterday called it a heckler (saying 4 More Years 4 More Years) and played tape. NO mention about the topic of Romney’s speech and it wasn’t even a “you lie” moment. Hardly worth giving any noting in the media at all. Stupid Obama voter was all it was. Other attendees could be heard saying “USA USA” over the Democrat plant.

I just can’t get over the fact that Obama has an entire news network working on his behalf, in MSNBC. You know, there are networks that obviously “lean” a certain direction, like ABC, CNN, CBS. But MSNBC makes no bones about it. Their primetime programming is a non-stop Romney bashing. To have a sitting president with his own news network ought to be criminal. Even if its not his fault. Someone has to tackle this problem head-on sooner or later. What makes me especially sick about MSNBC is they call in panelists that are entirely liberal. And I’m talking about O’Donnell (the worst of the pack), Madden, and Ed Schultz. They never invite a conservative to get into a scuffle with. Its blatant news trash of the worst variety and even though they get minimal ratings compared to CNN and Fox, I have no doubt they are doing damage to Romney and helping Obama. Makes me boiling mad.

MSNBC does not lead, they advocate.

MS is probably counting the days until they pull their name from that catastrophy.

Didn’t Joe Scarborough get into it with someone recently who said JS identified with liberals?

Joe Scarborough, you are NOT a Conservative. You are NOT. You are a paid for liberal who calls itself a Conservative so your show will look fair. Nobody is fooled.

The left-wing media is so desperate to trash Romney that it has now fabricated three FAKE news stories wholly out of misinformation to try to sway the campaign:

The desperation is clearly showing - and it’s (once again) just sad:

1) The “Romney doesn’t know why airplane windows don’t open”

When Romney was explaining why we was deathly fearful for his wife on a plane with a fire and smoke he said “... and there is no oxygen outside so you can’t just open the windows to let air in - (long pause and a smile). “Um, I don’t know why they don’t roll down” he clearly said as a joke. But the media picked it up to say “Romney does not know why plane windows do not roll down” Really?

A reporter on the scene later said “it was clearly a joke he was making.”

2) A total hack EX-republican Iowa state official who the media described as “closely following the Romney campaign” (big deal - he has no official affiliation with it) was describing what Ryan would have to do “IF ROMNEY LOSES” and he used the phrase “he would have to get the stench of the loss off of his name first.”

This was a purely hypothetical statement about what Ryan might have to do under non-existent circumstances. Yet another REALLY hack reporter from Politico made up wholly from cloth a satirical article where he claimed Ryan referred to Romney as “Stench” and had said thing like “if stench calls tell him I’m eating finger sandwiches with Peggy Noonan”. This was a fairy-tale article. IT NEVER HAPPENED, Ryan never said anything close to those words or used the term stench.

The Iowa official said “that was not at all what I meant, and I certainly never said Ryan had referred to Romney as a “stench”.”

But none less than Nobel Prize Winner (Really????) Paul Krugman and Laurence O’Donnell both reported the story of Ryan calling Romney “stench” as FACTUAL in the New York Times and on MSNBC. It was pure bullsh*t. Instead of an apology they gave an excuse “well, the Politico author didn’t say his article was a satire.” The author replied “Well, I thought it was obvious.” he had also said Powerpoint was invented to kill cows in slaughterhouses.

3). The latest joke is a supposed campaign rally where Romney led the crowd to chant - “Romney Ryan” instead of just “Ryan”. In fact, Ryan had just finished speaking and the crowd was chanting “Romney Romney” - yet MSNBC put up a graphic with the words “Ryan Ryan”to insinuate that was what the crowd was chanting, and reported that Romney tried to get them to add HIS name to to the chant.

No, it was the other way around. He was sticking up for his VP candidate who had just spoken. People on the scene contacted the news media to say “I was there, the chant was ‘Romney Romney’”

Listen to the crowd - there were a few “Ryans” but also many clearly chanting “Romney” when he interrupted them... he was just suggesting “say both names, not just one” (Big deal).

Watch the MSNBC video - the screen says “Ryan” but what do you hear?
