CONFIRMED: CBS Refuse to Release Full Audio of Obama hot mic recording
Breitbart.com ^ | April 20, 2011 | Andrew Marcus

Posted on 04/20/2011 3:59:46 PM PDT by ransomnote

Last weekend, His Presidency Barack Obama was captured making potentially offensive comments to a group of big money donors who had paid large sums of money for special access to His Presidency.

We observed that CBS only released “selectively edited” moments from the raw tape. We know how much the mainstream media values complete and full disclosure of recordings of this nature, so we found it curious, to say the least, that there was not one drop of intellectual curiosity from these guardians of media purity regarding the content of the full recording.

Maybe CBS’s motive has nothing to do with protecting His Presidency from potential embarrassment. Perhaps, like Nixon before them, CBS accidentally erased the portions of the recording that they have not released. Anything is possible, right?

Alas, no. John Romano, Publisher of the blog “Yes, But, However!” has confirmed with CBS’s Mark Knoller (via Twitter) that CBS has decided that they are not going to release the complete recording.

@markknoller Why haven’t you released all of the audio of President Obama’s “donor meeting”? If you have please link?

@markknoller This is my third request. Why will you not release the full audio of Obama’s donor conversation?

@yesbuthowever My editors decided against it.

People can speculate as to what their motive is, but we suspect that they do not want to jeopardize their White House access leading into campaign season by being the ones to release the audio of His Presidency referring to Americans as “slugs.”

Of course not, they’re protecting “their boy”. Their yellow brand of journalism is as “transparent” as the Deceiver in Chief’s “presidency”.

CBS once again proves their utter irrelevancy.

What did our first foreign born Muslim in disguise President say? Did he use the J word in a derogatory manner like Hitlery?

You know, I thought FR would insist on my truncating such a long title so I grabbed a word, ‘Refuse’ out of it and searched on that. That search pulled other titles with the word ‘Refuse’ in it but not the thread you posted. I”ll try the full (long) title next time. Thanks for the link.

The media is always blocking and tackling for their man.

Reminds me of the LA Times not releasing the recording of the speech Obama gave to PLO organization during the campaign.

“In April 2008, the Los Angeles Times indicated they were in possession of a videotape showing Barack Obama at a party in honor of former PLO spokesman Rashid Khalidi. Terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn were also in attendance, and Khalidi lavished praise upon Obama as a friend of the Palestinian cause.

At Khalidi’s going-away party in 2003, the scholar lavished praise on Obama, telling the mostly Palestinian American crowd that the state senator deserved their help in winning a U.S. Senate seat. “You will not have a better senator under any circumstances,” Khalidi said.

The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.

Since then, the LA Times has stubbonly refused to release the videotape or provide any more information about its contents.”

I believe that it was an intentional hot mic and this news about about not releasing the rest of the audio has been created only to add authenticity to the bogus hot mic scam.

See BS wears large kneepads for the commie Barry the Bastard. Expect nothing less than scams from these jerks. This is the network of rather the magician don'tchaknow. Working 'fake bu accurate' for their little half-black godman is par for their course coarse.

The Communist Broadcasting System would have to get the OK from their “Minder” to do that.

Not even a glimmer of a chance of that. We already KNOW what to expect from this bunch of liars, propagandists and news "adjusters."

I also think it was intentional because Zero spoke with his usual TOTUS robot tone. /IMO

Trump will either buy someone inside or pay hackers to get the audio... it will just appear when leaked by someone or some group not connected to Trump.

And that's probably the most likely true and dominant reason.

But danamco can surely understand, just as he understands that Trump, as a billionaire businessman, contributing big bucks (paying extortion) to liberal causes and Jesse Jackson and such, was exercising neccessary business savvy, being able to do business in a territory owned by certain gangs.

Same thing here. It's the extortion the network pays to maintain access to our president. Not much more than that.
