cBS News Says Their Kamala Harris Interview Was Totally On The Up And Up

There’s still something missing, though

CBS News breaks its silence over editing allegations in ’60 Minutes’ interview with Harris

CBS News pushed back against former President Trump’s claim that “60 Minutes” deceitfully edited its interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, dismissing the allegation as “false” in a statement released Sunday.

After weeks of staying mum despite mounting backlash over the interview, CBS published a statement Sunday evening addressing the outrage that ensued after airing two different answers to the same question in the “60 Minutes” interview earlier this month with the Democratic nominee.

“Former President Donald Trump is accusing 60 Minutes of deceitful editing of our Oct. 7 interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. That is false,” the statement began.

“60 Minutes gave an excerpt of our interview to ‘Face the Nation’ that used a longer section of her answer than that on 60 Minutes. Same question. Same answer. But a different portion of the response. When we edit any interview, whether a politician, an athlete, or movie star, we strive to be clear, accurate and on point. The portion of her answer on 60 Minutes was more succinct, which allows time for other subjects in a wide-ranging 21-minute-long segment.”

And, then, of course, it had to pivot to Trump, because Trump Derangement Syndrome is real, and, hey, why not, it’s all Kamala seems to be able to do. And, if you’ll remember

CBS News has taken heat in recent days for airing two different answers to the same question in its “60 Minutes” interview earlier this month with Harris. Harris was mocked by conservatives when footage of her offering a lengthy “word salad” was aired by CBS’ “Face the Nation” to promote the “60 Minutes” sit-down, when Bill Whitaker asked why it seemed like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasn’t listening to the U.S.

It’s hard to reconcile the different answers with “light editing” or striving “to be clear, accurate, and on point.”

The thing is, cBS News makes no mention of releasing either the full transcript, the unedited full interview, or both. I wonder why?

    Step 1 of their 4 step obfuscation process. Next will be: yes, it happened but not that bad.

    Are there no leftists but pathological liars? And now with fellatio harris everything’s a lie. I’m listening to a fellatio ad and the goofy pussy hat broad states that Trump wants to increase taxes on the middle class by 25%. Where do they get this shit? Plus she states Trump wants to ban all abortion even if the life of the mother is in peril. Again, Huh?

    I was reading some of Elwood’s comments while eating breakfast and was impressed how many times he managed to bring Trump into any topic. I swear he must be president of White men for Harris because his testosterone level is -1.

    Anyway, I’m back at my dad’s house in Palm Beach waiting for the decision on my insurance for my house. Also for my car. And the girls cars. We will be picking up Catalina’s new Mazda MX-5 at 2 this afternoon. I’ll pay for it and she can pay me back when her check comes in. I’m currently using mom’s SUV.

    I worked my butt off since the storms along with the firemen of Tampa. Lot of work for clean up. I need to rest my friggin leg for a few days. The screws and rods are causing pain. I’m using a cane. Like an old man. Next a walker? LOL.

      LBG,

      We’re fascinated by the right-wing obsession with blow jobs? Did you walk in on your mother fellating Fernando the gardener? Did your daddy make you suck his dick? It’s not your fault.

      It’s no surprise that you right-wing boys are drawn to the likes of The Donald – His wealth and TV celebrity has allowed Him to debase and even abuse girls as well as grown women – His trashy faux tough guy talk you find attractive. He is everything you aren’t. He’s a tough-talking bully, absurdly but hubristically stupid, physically a big pussy; an old, old man who wears thick make-up, a bouffant daddy. His own daddy, Fred, and the family lawyer, mob consigliere Roy Cohn (he worked for Fat Tony Salerno), taught him to always Attack! Donnie Trump kept an framed 8×10 of Roy Cohn on his desk. Donald Trump is the candidate for men who can’t think.

      BTW, insecure men who have to tell how manly they are, aren’t.

        As opposed to a narcissist who serially assraped his prepubescent grandson, hey Rimjob?
        Have you ever apologized?

    Why? Why do you stoop so low as to attack me over nothing? I made a joke about you so you attack my mother and father? Are you fucking nuts? What kind of person does that, especially an adult?

    BTW, insecure men who have to tell how manly they are, aren’t.

    I don’t think Trump is insecure at all. Now you OTOH having the need to call out my family that’s another story. I can’t figure out what could possibly motivate a person like you to be so filthy and nasty in public. Would you like me to start on your family and children like you have on mine? Politicians for the most part are open season but why are you so insecure you feel the need to attack fellow commenters?

    Is it that you don’t like me calling fellatio a Kameltoe? What am I saying that’s not factual? Then you just slander my family for no reason. You really are a mental midget.

      LBG,

      Don’t be so sensitive and insecure. You love insulting others and talking about blow jobs but get upset when others do it.

      You’re much like your Cult Leader, who insults all around him but wants to jail those that criticize him.

    So is this the royal we or just your multiple personality disorder manifesting itself?
