Media Matters: Why Is Cadet Applause Missing in Fox News Video of Obama Speech?

Media Matters: Did Fox News edit video of President Obama’s commencement speech at West Point to remove audience applause? Filmmaker Michael Moore thinks so...

[Paladin2]

The MSM is apparently too attached to laugh tracks and now, likely applause tracks. Projection means that all of their video will now have to be evaluated for added applause.

Michael Moore is unconcerned when Obama administration transcripts omit the ums and uhs.

[SumProVita]

Was there any applause to edit?

[Doogle]

heard original applause track...probably 20 people out of a few hundred

[Deb]

It looks to me like the mike just didn’t pick up what applause there was. But Moore is used to Obama speeches where the networks “sweeten” the applause with sound design, like they do for Leno’s monologues.

[mikelets456]

Maybe because they are ALL fear/hate mongering racists? (SARC)

HANNITY RADIO | 10-22-01 | Mia T --- Viacom SeeBS/MTV/VH1 and owner of Simon & Schuster (publisher of Hillary's then to be published autobiography) overdubbed those boos with cheers for subsequent rebroadcasts and the DVD release.

If so, it was poorly miked.

Unlike the wood-chipper sounds that eminate from Michael Moore when he gorges himslef at lunch or dinner, the silence of the Cadets obviously results from one-handed claping.

After listening to that story, I needed some comedy relief, so I scrolled down and clicked on this:

I thought the porculous protester had been quiet for a looong time....

[Tzimisce]

I’m proud of these cadets for not throwing things or breaking down in tears at the thought of taking orders from this limp wrist.

[TOneocon]

there was quit the discussion yesterday about this!

Didn’t CNN edit out boos for Hillary after a speech shortly after 9-11?

[Danae]

You can’t take out what wasn’t there to begin with Mike.

I can’t believe that your fridge has ever run out of something... like fudge, or Donuts or perhaps even milk. Mike...can you take milk out of your fridge if there isn’t any milk in there?

Get back to us on that, we understand it will take a while for you to get over the shock of no milk in the fridge...

[Kakaze]

I watched that speech, obamas expression is proof enough there was little more than polite applause.

[Carley]

Darling MM, I watced on CSPIN and there was NO applause to speak of.

Is MM accusing CSPIN of editing their live feed?

[OCCASparky]

Michael Moore, master of the out-of-context film, accuses Fox News? This is rich.

[RegulatorCountry]

Yes we all agree, Dear Leader always experiences unprecedented applause where ever he goes.

There must be some conspiracy, for Dear Leader to appear to have not gotten the applause that is his due.
