The following voice mail message was inadvertently left on the cell phone of Joe Miller campaign spokesperson Randy DeSoto.

The voices are believed to be those of the news director for CBS Anchorage affiliate KTVA, along with assignment editor Nick McDermott, and other reporters, openly discussing creating, if not fabricating, two stories about Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, Joe Miller.

The following is a transcript of a call recorded after CBS Alaska affiliate KTVA called Joe Miller’s Senate campaign spokesperson. The call failed to disconnect properly. It was later authenticated by McDermott, who sent a text to Randy DeSoto stating, “Damn iPhone… I left you a long message. I thought I hung up. Sorry.”


TRANSCRIPT OF KTVA AUDIO

FROM OCTOBER 28, 2010


FEMALE REPORTER: That’s up to you because you have the experience but that’s what I would do...I’d wait until you see who shows up because that indicates we already know something...

[Laughter]

[INAUDIBLE]

FEMALE REPORTER: Child molesters...

MALE REPORTER: Oh yes...Joe Miller’s...uh...get a list of people/campaign workers which one's the molester

[INAUDIBLE]

FEMALE VOICE: You know that of all the people that will show up tonight, at least one of them will be a registered sex offender.

[Laughter]

MALE REPORTER: We need to find that one person...

[INAUDIBLE]

FEMALE REPORTER: The one thing we can do is ....we won’t know....we won’t know but if there is any sort of chaos whatsoever we can put out a twitter/facebook alert: saying what the... ‘Hey Joe Miller punched at rally.’

FEMALE REPORTER: Kinda like Rand Paul...I like that.

[Laughter]

FEMALE REPORTER: That’s a good one.

Sarah’s comment about them (”those Corrupt Bastards”)

Sarah said that? Holy cow, Batman!

That won't go viral -- it'll go nuclear.

Global film at five.

I'm sure some of you can come up with many more examples of CBS' on-air expressions of hatred against politicians and causes they wanted to see defeated.

Besides the Tet canard (U.S. and ARVN forces were, even as "Uncle Walter" spoke, taking apart the dreaded and elusive Viet Cong cadres like so many boiled chickens -- the VC were never again a military factor in the war), CBS News producer George Crile engineered the Westmoreland smear that accused Westmoreland of rigging intelligence estimates for political reasons (the judge's instructions to the jury essentially ruled out any finding for the general, and his attorneys persuaded Gen. W to settle the suit for a mere apology).

And of course there was, only slightly O/T, the CNN-TIME "Tailwind" poison-gas canard that involved Comsymp TIME reporter Peter Arnett. The story blew up in CNN's faces.

"It’s been like that for a while.................🤔" Yes, but meanwhile, how/why does a 22 year-old post become a subject of interest?
