Disgraceful. Another example of the media making news instead of reporting news.

McCain and Palin should only do live interviews and make it known that the reason is because of the editing process many "new" organizations use. I would assume the one interviewing Palin or McCain will end up being the one looking like the ignorant fool.

wait, that's why they have to edit, because they have to make their bumbling idiot newsmen appear intelligent and wipe out all their gaffes.

Somewhere last night I read a summary of this that said:

Those that were against her are still against her - and
those that were for her are still for her.

I think that’s a fair assessment and represents a win for Sarah given the way ABC acted.

I would like to see a juxtaposition of the questions Gibson asked Obama during his first interview with him and the questions he asked Sarah.

GIBSON: You believe unprovoked.

Like I said before......

The debates will clinch it. Palin will nuke Biden and McCain (who has finally found his brass knuckles) will KO NObama.

I can't wait 'til Sarah debates the gaffer Biden. And if McCain can just get (one) townhall debate with the Oboomerang du-du-au-au lost my teleprompter Hussein, the polls will go out the top.

I see a landslide victory for the McCain/Palin ticket and the Republicans running for congress from these debates. When Evil is exposed to the Truth it loses its false powers and consumes itself in it's own excrement.

“ABC News Edited Out Key Parts of Sarah Palin Interview”

And we would expect less than a hatchet job by the MSM on Sarah because...? ;)

She did extremely well considering the circumstances.

That said, I would not give these clowns at the MSM the time of day after this performance. They should have demanded a copy of the raw video on this one.

Not yet but it will probably be discussed on the Sunday circuit.

“The rest of the MSM should be furious with Gibson because he may have just blown any chances they had to get interviews.”

McCain team should refer to this interview and the hack job they did when the rest of the media cries out that Sarah is not granting interviews. Then should point to the boohoo Hollywood crowd and mention that they should know what he is talking about because the tactic has been used with them for years in gossip mags and television interviews.
Its a shame that the supposed real media has descended into the levels of inaccurate gossip mags.

This is why Palin has to start holding press conferences.

The press has been screaming for them, she has to start providing them.

They can’t edit press conferences. (Sound-biting them isn’t the same as editing them. Too many opportunities for differing sound-bites, while an edit is a complete make-over.)

They can’t squelch the coverage of a press conferences.

Now it’s true, press conferences open you up to making mistakes.

But that’s a chance I think the McCain campaign should take.

I think it’s worth the risk to try to open up a big hole in the Media Line and run the ball right up the middle.

I bet Palin can pull it off. Just give her the ball. Let her run with it.

My comment:
I don't watch Network News anymore. (I used to be a very regular viewer.) But I was interested in the Palin interview so I tuned in Thursday (?) evening. It was an opportunity for you to bring me back.

But you failed miserably.

Instead you reconfirmed all of the negative opinions I have built up over the years about what you and the other mainstream news sources do. Your interview wasn't an interview. It was an interrogation.

I could go on; but your text limit forbids me.

Shame!

Well they had to edit it in order to have time for 15 minutes lead-in hit piece from that female DNC spokeswoman. And also all the DNC review panels and commentators who parsed, ridiculed and opposed every word she said.

Selective editing is nothing new to the leftist reporters. No, make that AGENTS instead of reporters.

The raw video is out there but only if you have access to the Internet. Hopefully, more and more of it will come out via Fox as well as alphabet tv and am/fm radio stations. The live debates will give McCain and Palin the opportunity to bring out what was buried as well.
