MSNBC Caught Doctoring Clip From Romney/Ryan Rally

This breaking story comes straight from The Blaze.

A clip from a recent Romney/Ryan rally has recently been played over and over at MSNBC highlighting what appears to be an embarrassing moment on the campaign trail for Governor Romney. Originally aired on Wednesday's "Morning Joe," the clip shows Paul Ryan introducing Romney as the MSNBC-added text appears on the screen proclaiming that the crowd is shouting "Ryan!" Romney gets the mic and asks the crowd to say "Romney/Ryan!" Joe Scarborough covers his face and grumbles out the words, "Sweet Jesus."

Then the Blaze received a call from one of the rally attendees:

During Thursday‘s edition of TheBlaze TV’s “Pat & Stu,” one caller gives her account of the campaign rally.

“The crowd was yelling,” caller Sherry recounts, “the crowd was screaming ‘Romney! Romney!’ and Romney, being the gentleman [he is], we can‘t get in his head because he’s so stinking nice, he stopped us to add ‘Romney-Ryan.’”

I stitched together the MSNBC clip and the clip of The Blaze caller with Pat and Stu's reaction to her claim--and their reaction to the rally footage as they play it again without the MSNBC-added text. I also stitched together the original Romney/Ryan clip that I pulled from C-SPAN.

What appears to be an unpopular Romney seeking appreciation and attention from a Paul Ryan-infatuated audience is really a man who is generously deflecting attention away from himself onto his VP nominee.

Romney should talk about this at his rallies. Just a short mention of msnbc editing tapes to try and make him and Ryan look bad. Then it would be covered by msnbc’s competitors.

They didn't cut that video. They didn't edit it themselves. They had 0blame0's help, or they wouldn't have done it at all.

Perhaps, and wouldn't put it past Zero's folks to do it, but the MSM is so far up Zero's butt they can see his soul and read his wishes - they will always do his bidding as all of Evil's minions are wont to do.

I was trying for a catchy phrase..

I have nothing against Twiter per se...though I don't use it myself, nor do I Facebook..do me they both seem narcissistic self-indulgences..

While I do understand that social media is reshaping our lives, I guess I'm old enough that I find it well, demeaning somehow that our politicians spend so much time Tweeting..

A caller who attended the rally called Rush yesterday. This needs more coverage, not because of the actual incident, but to highlight the mendacity of the LSM.

Facebook is a complete waste of time, but Twitter is extremely useful for news hounds. It is also a good way to interact with certain media personalities and people in the conservative movement.

Come on now....MSNBC is the most factual news based entity since Cronkite. I am surprised they don’t have their own journalism wing at Harvard.
