MSNBC gets caught again with their "selective editing". Part 1
MSNBC isn't really a news organization. They're a cross between CNN and Al Gore's progressive activist channel CURRENT TV. Largely in part, MSNBC is irrelevant. Throughout the day MSNBC can't even bring in one million viewers. I think the only reason why myself and others highlight MSNBC's deceptive reporting that is being passed off as news is, because it is nothing but deceptive propaganda being presented as news. A few days ago, Mitt Romney was at a political gathering of supporters in which he addressed the crowd in talking about the huge government bureaucracy. Mitt talked about how a dentist he met said that he had to fill out seven pages of documentation just so that he can move is dentist practice to another location. Mitt then made a comparison between the huge clumsy bureaucracy of the federal government vs how fast, streamlined and efficient a private sector Wawa convenient store store is in which he visited recently. As you all know by now, Andrew Mitchell of NBC News/MSNBC couldn't have Mitt Romney come off sounding like he knew what he was talking about, so thanks to some "selective editing", the video MSNBC aired and she reported on was that of a video that made it appear that Mitt Romney was fascinated by a Wawa convenience store in an attempt to make him look like he was out of touch with regular people and never been in a convenience store before.
Once upon a time, progressives ruled the media. There was no counter balance in order to hold the media accountable. The left controlled the content hence forth, they controlled the distribution of the content and ultimately the message itself. Unfortunately for them, the left's monopoly isn't there anymore. I like the side by side comparison Brent Bozell and the Media Research Center did, because it highlights my point exactly. MSNBC thought that they were the only ones who had video footage of Mitt Romney talking to the crowd, but obviously they weren't, because others filmed it as well. This is why Andrea Mitchell and MSNBC are looking like fools right now. They didn't have exclusive control of the content to manipulate as they saw fit. These days, many people are walking around with cellphone cameras, flip camera etc. If others in attendance didn't tape Romney's words, when he was talking the crowd, MSNBC might have gotten away with their deceptive edit hit piece on Romney. Sarah Palin was a speaker at the RightOnline conference this past weekend. She hit on the point about how the left has lost it's stranglehold on the news. She made reference to how a once little known person by then name of Matt Drudge broke the story that lead to the impeachment of Bill Clinton, while the national media originally tried to ignore it in trying to defend him.

I live in a liberal town, and whenever I mention Fox News, I was told by them that Fox is all just propaganda.
I would contradict their claim and give them some examples like how medias like MSNBC and CNN would distort the truth and how Fox News would report it. I gave them example about Contessa Brewer's "racist gun rally" in San Diego and how they're anti-black, anti-Obama, and lo and behold, there was a clip of a black man whom they did not reveal. They would not believe me, and I told them to check it out for themselves and they would not do it.
Why can't people tell the truth, much as they can't handle the truth?

Right! Now both sides can deceptively edit videos and speeches to propagandize the flow of information and mis-infromation. Popular opinion though says that FOX News beats all propaganda outlets hands down! Watch as Jon Stewart lambastes Sean Hannity's deceptive editing practices. Here's another one of Hannity's propaganda jewels.
MSNBC and FOX News seem to be competing as to who can twist the opposing candidates message the most. I believe that FOX wins that debate hands down. Many who watch FOX just don't simply say the president is a Marxist, they actually believe it!
Here are some examples of what FOX viewers believe. Even though the facts are readily available, via the internet, and various other sources, FOX News viewers remain "propagandized."
-91 percent believe the stimulus legislation lost jobs
-49 percent believe income taxes have gone up
-63 percent believe the stimulus legislation did not include any tax cuts
-56 percent believe Obama initiated the GM/Chrysler bailout
-63 percent believe Obama was not born in the U.S. (or that it is unclear)
-23% Believe FEMA is building concentration camps. (to house Americans)
