The Glenn Beck site The Blaze documents O'Keefe's fraudulent editing of the NPR videos.

Not half as ifunny as the irony of you having to praise a GB affiliate. But you do get rare props for posting it.

It just shows how little you understand me.

But what do you have to say in response to your defence of O'keefe:

You don't really expect anyone to believe anything by O'Keefe do you?



Yup. Anybody who's head isnt up their own posterior. Bye Bye NPR funding.

Fail, fail, fail.

O'keefe posted the entire recording on his website and Ive posted links to that in the other threads twice, so are you being willfully ignorant or just dishonest?

And multiple viewers of the complete videos, myself included, report tthat they were deceptively edited. I found the fact that even Beck's minions admitted the truth utterly hilarious.

Yeah, how dare anyone accuse NPR of wanting to take $5 million from Muslim Terrorists just because they took $8 million from George Soros which they laundered to be from an "anonymous" donor so the IRS wouldn't know!
Next thing you know they'll be wanting to say that the "Hide the Decline" e-mail from East Asshole U. was real! Bastards!
Sheesh!

Since you are citing Beck now, Ken, does that make you a teabagger?

If it's all a fraud, why the resignations?

As I already wrote I cited Beck's site for the lulz factor.

To answer your question, I have no idea. If it was I being slandered by that little pipsqueak I'd sue him and his financiers till the cows came home.

And it is a fraud, watch the unedited video yourself. I found the segment where the fraudulently edited video purports to get the guy to agree with the 'charity's' support of sharia by editing in his response to a problem with someone's name on the reservation list to be particularly telling.

What ? How is it that Soros doesn't want the IRS to know when it is either deductable or is not ? Why on earth would he need to hide it ? Also, you keep mentioning Soros as if he is big cheese when compared to the Annenburg group, the Ford Foundation or GM not to mention all of the other 'personal' $mutli-million gifts or donations and if so...so the fuck what.

If you think for a minute that all of those so-called leftwing, liberal donators as compared to the Koch Ind. and the media and money from R. Murdock. are the same or on even the same lying, propaganda bile, then you will believe absolutely anything...you choose to...to satisfy your own partisan rant or slant.

The wealthy right in this country have shown themselves to be the best investors of all time in our plutocratic govt. the returns on which have been very very lucrative.

You can't set out to write things this funny.

I think you have the market cornered on both those points.

I saw some of those tapes on the News and that guy wasn't sitting on someone's lap with their arm up his back!

So, pops, are you saying that because of the edited tapes you watched, you are ready to string NPR up by the bootstraps? Or are you going to take time to actually read the article posted.

Willfully dishonest, like in the Wisconsin thread.

Maybe someday, Ken, you'll try reading your own links?

Maybe someday you won't lie every time the right makes itself look bad.

Some much better quotes from the article.
quote:

1. Muslim Brotherhood connection
...
The raw video also includes a longer section of description that seems to downplay connections of the MEAC group to the Muslim Brotherhood as popularly perceived.

quote:

2. Does Ron Schiller react to “Sharia” mission statement with amusement?
...
So after saying that the MEAC website advocates the “acceptance of Sharia,” the video cuts to the NPR exec saying, “Really? That’s what they said?” The cadence is jovial and upbeat and the narration moves on. The implication is that the NPR exec is aware and perhaps amused or approving of the MEAC mission statement. But when you look at the raw video you realize he was actually recounting an unrelated and innocuous issue about confusion over names in the restaurant reservation.

quote:

4. The “seriously racist” Tea Party
...
But the clip in the edited video implies Schiller is giving simply his own analysis of the Tea Party. He does do that in part, but the raw video reveals that he is largely recounting the views expressed to him by two top Republicans, one a former ambassador, who admitted to him that they voted for Obama.

And finally the conclusion of the author
quote:

But even if you are of the opinion, as I am, that undercover reporting is acceptable and ethical in very defined situations, it is another thing to approve of editing tactics that seem designed to intentionally lie or mislead about the material being presented

Right, Ken... "Top Republicans" who admitted having voted for Obama... Great alledged sources he's claiming there. Sorta like anybody who takes your analysis as credible, or believes your links are going to say what you claim.

He got burned by some highly unethical "investigative journalists," who edited the tapes from bad to worse. So? NPR seems to think the "bad" is bad enough. I'm in agreement with them.

It was edited to make it appear that the guy said things he didn't really say...quoting out of context is an old tactic of yellow journalism. Looks like the right has found its own Michael Moore...be happy, now you guys have your own lying, misrepresenting, agenda-driven scumbag filmmaker.
