Katie Couric Regrets ‘Poor Decision’ to Insert Pause in Gun Documentary Interview
The WRAP ^ | May 26, 2016 | Beatrice Verhoeven

Posted on 05/26/2016 5:55:56 PM PDT by McGruff

Katie Couric is upset that an eight-second pause inserted into an interview she did with gun rights activists in the documentary “Under the Gun” has drawn criticism, calling the edit an “unnecessary mistake,” according to an individual with knowledge of her thinking.

The individual spoke to TheWrap and said that director Stephanie Soechtig inserted the pause, which critics are calling an example of “deceptive” and “appalling journalism.”

“This was an unnecessary mistake,” the individual told TheWrap. “It did not represent editing someone’s sentences, there was no factual error, this is not a mistake that is a substantive mistake. It could have been avoided,” he said, adding: “This was a poor decision that was made and it involves silence.”

Perky little Ms. Couric is a high paid lying media whore who thinks we’re all stupid pajama boys.

Karma will find you, Katie.

The only mistake, in their eyes, was getting caught. Otherwise, this was entirely purposeful...and EVERYONE knows it.

Here's Katie right before she took a big dump (four hours later). I should "conveniently" take out the part in parentheses)

“This was an unnecessary mistake,” Unlike all the “necessary” mistakes they normally make. “It did not represent editing someone’s sentences, there was no factual error, this is not a mistake that is a substantive mistake.” More mis-direction. The pause was not an accident, it was intentional and purposely misleading in order to make the interviewees look bad. ” It could have been avoided,” But they didnt want to.

That's exactly right.
NBC edited what actually happened (the truth) to make it appear as if Couric achieved a "mic drop" victory over the heartless hapless dolts opposing her political agenda.

NBC basically denies a mistake was made and pretends to apologize to any who were offended by their lies.

All criminals are sorry and regretful once they are caught.

“Couric is a lying slut from hell who knows no other recourse than the dirty communist masters that pay her.”

Please continue....

Well at least we know she’s good at Tacquiya. No wonder the left and Moslems get on so well together.

had you not told me this was Katie, my mouth would have been watering profusely...

and another part of my anatomy would be reacting as well were I not rapidly approaching the end of my seventh decade...
