Before Romney issued his statement today, an open mic capture the press coordinating questions to ask Romney, with one saying “no matter who he calls on we’re covered on the one question”. I’ve transcribed it to the best of my ability but the audio is below for verification:
I’ve labeled one as the CBS News reporter as I believe it is Nancy Cordes who works for CBS News. If I’ve gotten that wrong I apologize and will correct.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: …pointing out that the Republicans… *unintelligible* …Obama….
CBS REPORTER: That’s the question.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: *unintelligible*
CBS REPORTER: Yeah that’s the question. I would just say do you regret your question.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Your question? Your statement?
CBS REPORTER: I mean your statement. Not even the tone, because then he can go off on…
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: And then if he does, if we can just follow up and say ‘but this morning your answer is continuing to sound…’ – *becomes unintelligble*
CBS REPORTER: You can’t say that..
**Later**
CBS REPORTER: I’m just trying to make sure that we’re just talking about, no matter who he calls on we’re covered on the one question.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER: Do you stand by your statement or regret your statement?

They did this for Bush didn’t they?
Romney tells the truth they question it. Obama lies you do not hear a peep. They are in the tank for Obama.

Of the journalist
Considering what he would do
Unasked
There is no reason to.”
Inspired by the “caveat emptor” principle of Roman law, which sounds a note of caution for potential buyers, media consumers should heed the unwritten warning, “Reader/Viewer/Listener beware.” And some Strong Criticism within the journalistic profession wouldn’t hurt either.
You do not have to bribe or twist the journalist.
But seeing what the swine will do
Unbribed, there is no reason to.
Romney knew exactly what they were up to and handled it well.
No media mention that this is the first US ambassasador assassinated since Adolph “Spike” Dubs during the Carter administration. The media is doing very well at keeping that from public perception.
Flashback Open Mic- “I will have more flexibility once I am re-elected.”
I saw the video for this somewhere, but the actual interview that Hannity played on the radio was missing from the story.
It reminded me of when the Commnists began infiltrating all of our town hall meatings, and would place themselves at different strategic places and begin screaming at the speaker, one after another, to give the effect that there were so many that were protesting what was going on, it would shut down the event and nobody would protest because they would feel they were in the minority.
That is what this press conference sounded like.
There are no more reporters, only propagandists.
Yeah, I heard the Hannity montage of the reporters questions. Was ridiculous having them do a coordinated attack.
Instead of conspiring to trap Romney, these are the questions this sordid crew should have asked Obama:
Why were our embassies in the Middle East not on full alert and given extra security on 9/11? Why did it take you 16 hours to reject the two apologies from our Cairo embassy to the terrorists who were invading our territory and destroying our flag? What do you plan to do to bring the killers of our ambassador to justice?
Since Romney answered all the questions so well, the leftist media will just put their questions in the news. We won’t hear Romney’s voice unless the media thinks it’s a “gaffe” just as they did with President GW Bush.
This story will not be reported by the MSM, so the vast majority of Obama’s supporters will never hear about it, so they can continue to say that they don’t believe in leftist media bias.
We must all remember that these reporters ALL work for a corporation....They condem corporations...but gleefully accept their multi dollar checks from the very corporations who send the checks...then we have the presstitutes who are receiving checks from the whitehouse. The news corporations are all probably ALL IN BED (girly boys?) with the whitehouse.
It is nominally a scandal for journalists to be secretly coordinating their questions. Because we need free and independent presses, not merely a free press.People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. It is impossible indeed to prevent such meetings, by any law which either could be executed, or would be consistent with liberty and justice. But though the law cannot hinder people of the same trade from sometimes assembling together, it ought to do nothing to facilitate such assemblies; much less to render them necessary. - Wealth of nations, Book I, Ch 10But learning that there is only one press rather than competitive presses is only nominally a scandal. After all, the presses have been “associated” since the middle of the Eighteenth Century. That is when the Associated Press was formed - and when a continuous 24/7 virtual “meeting” of journalists was established via “the wire."
Round em all up and send them over to Libya to defend the embassy.
