Good catch. A sharp twitter user from Arizona noticed this fake news effort. CBS used a picture from President Trump’s “Latino’s for Trump” event as a manipulative picture to showcase Joe Biden’s Latino outreach effort in Miami.
(source)
Those are not Biden Latino supporters in Miami; those are President Trump Latino supporters in Arizona. Event picture below.
This is what the actual Joe Biden event (Latino outreach) in Miami actually looked like:
The scale of manipulative effort by U.S. media is off the charts. This is beyond “fake news”; this is a full scale psychological campaign on behalf of U.S. media for their preferred candidate.
Terry McAuliffe actually admitted they were going to take this approach in June.
What McAuliffe outlines is exactly what we have been seeing in the past couple of weeks. However, the slightly remarkable part is how open the campaign is in their admission the best approach is to keep their presidential candidate away from voters.
It takes quite a large amount of confidence, in their ability to use traditional media and big tech social media, for a presidential campaign to admit their best hope for success is to keep their candidate hidden; and allow fake news and tech allies to fabricate a campaign.
Obviously, accepting McAuliffe as outlined, we can expect more telepromptered and heavily controlled videos from the team running the bunker operations. Meanwhile their national media allies will shape events against their opposition, President Trump.
The admission of McAuliffe on the digital space would highlight the intention to drive astroturf campaigning through the use of manipulated social media accounts, bots, and paid networks to give the illusion of large scale support for each of the shaped events.
As a consequence more fake social media accounts will attempt to amplify social media messaging and RolCon (roleplaying conservatives, or concern trolling). We’ve already seen the uptick in these activities on-line.
Fake polling amplified by media in combination with advance narrative engineering by mainstream media is also an obvious part of the strategy as it was in 2016. However, for the 2020 campaign those efforts will expand significantly.
The Biden/Clyburn strategy succeeds through advanced astroturf operations; and to attain maximum benefit they will need to focus on social issues, race etc.

You can tell from the signs and the guy in front with 4 fingers up for 4 more years.
TwoLaine,
I think the Make America Great Signs in the background are giveaways, as well. Totally understand their assumption, though. They must convince themselves they were in Arizona, because “Like they’re just isn’t any Latinos in Mijami, Heffe, correcto?” HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! hidin’s event in Miami would barely qualify as a Church Service (“Wherever two shall meet…”).
I think the guy is actually going to come unraveled (Mummy-style) BEFORE even the first debate! Hmmm. I wonder what the over/under is on such things?
P.S. And there was a lady with a TRUMP hat on, just behind to left, of the “FOUR MORE YEARS” guy! I’m sure it’s just coincidence that she got cropped out, yes?/s
That is what I said. “You can tell from the signs”.
Bottom line, I listened to the whole tape. This is a nothing-burger.
Depends if you’re talking about debating points or the number of seconds it takes Trump to totally derail Biden’s “train of thought.”
The “i love Trump” had that the one lady was wearing was a dead giveaway.
Wonder if those Latino Trump voters have legal ground to sue CBS for using their images fraudulently? Never hurts to try. ?
Their images weren’t used fraudulently.
The anchor, while that image is up, is talking about how Trump is gaining support in the Latino community.
The banner along the bottom, was up for the entire segment during which the anchors are talking about Biden being in FL to reach out to the Latino community.
Beware confirmation bias.
Looking at the link you posted earlier I see three different video grabs that clearly show Trump supporters. Listening to the news clip I come away with the impression that cbs news is reluctantly acknowledging Trump has more support in the Latino communities now than Clinton did four years ago, and Trump won the state against Clinton, albeit by a small margin.
Me too….
ONLY reason Clinton was even remotely competitive in the 2016 election was due to massive democrat voter fraud . Approx 44% of the ENTIRE democrat vote totals were due to fraud.
So, the network had a choice to show Biden in a vacant room to make the message clear or mix up the message to show gleeful people while saying Trump was gaining.
There are many ways to tell a story. They have chosen to downplay the bad, IMHO.
Zachary – you’re becoming quite boring!
You said what you needed to!
We can either accept it or not!
Keep tryin.This BS just aren’t goin to fly,old sun
I think you are convincing yourself of CBS’ innocence.
You greatly underestimate their deception.
I never once said that CBS was innocent as a news outlet, in fact in my original comment regarding this (one page back) I explicitly stated that the MSM lies all the time.
I said that in this once instance they did nothing wrong, and I stand by that.
And for how long during that video segment on the election did they talk about Trump versus how long they talked about Biden? Five seconds to five minutes?
Had to laugh at the reply, because…..yeah, I’m pretty sure I could get at least 3 cars to come out for me tonite at short notice. hahaha I’m thinking many people *could*. Jill was in N.H. today, campaigning for hub. 3 car parade:

One of the most hilarious moments of the 2020 campaign so far.
There are actually people on Twitter who are pathetic enough to admit that they’re celebrating the 3 car parade saying they have their Biden hat on and want to join the festivities .
sunnydaze,
ANy of the hide’n “campaign offices” must look like this, huh?
There are 4 cars in my garage and driveway. So I can have a presidential candidate parade? LOL. That’s pathetic.
Maybe they should have kept driving around in circles to make people think there were more than three cars.
The New York state throughway is closed, man!
The media is scrambling to emphasize that latinos are actually voting for Trump and not Biden and some of you are defending the media saying it “wasn’t that bad”.
*slaps forehead*
How about you not interrupt your enemies while they make huge mistakes
C’monman! If they were truly attributing these folks to Trump, they would have referred to them as far-right white supremacists just like they normally refer to his supporters.
Malpractice.
Everybody just be positive and friendly and tell everyone you talk to that we can’t wait for November to get here so we can vote for Trump and put an end to all of this nonsense we have all been dealing with this year. No need to act like we are put upon by these Democraps when we will give Trump the greatest landslide since the Reagan beat down of Walter Mondale.
Yes, CBS is routinely biased, so what is new? Stay above these distractions because undecided voters are looking to see who has the most confidence that their candidates will win. We do! Lets show it. Anybody else take political science as a Freshman?
Sorry, Don’t see it.
Filthy, putrid liars…democrats

CBS Ed O’Keefe admits…
“The graphic didn’t line up with the image at that moment…”
Yet During the segment they changed the graphic to Identify a ‘Biden AD’ and a ‘Guest’
The Problem with the segment is that the Graphics are misleading in that they promote only ‘BIDEN 2020’ even though the segment is equally about ‘Trump 2020’…
Graphics/Headlines are often more/equally important than the Body of Reporting because its what most people Read/Hear/Remember…
FYI – The Segment was negative towards President Trump and Conservative Latino’s…
It was definitely negative towards President Trump and Conservative Latino’s. but if you think the segment was equally about ‘Trump 2020′ as it was about ‘Biden 2020,” then I suggest you look at how much time out of that two-minute segment was actually spent on
Trump as compared to Biden. I counted no more than 15 seconds spent on Trump with the remainder spent on Biden. They talked about what policies Biden is emphasizing but all they said about Trump is that his warnings about Socialism are “a play for Cubans and Venezuelans who lived under repressive regimes.”
Did CBS miss his State of the Union address and his campaign rallies where he said that “America will never be a Socialist nation?”
Don’t also forget that CBS ran Biden campaign ads in between segments while not running any from the Trump campaign.
That’s a good one “graphics didn’t line up with picture”! Heaven forbid that would purposely suggest that Biden actually had a crowd, when the world knows he never has more than 6 people. Just a error, honestly! LIARS CAUGHT LYING AGAIN!!
Chris Salcedo on Newsmax TV just gave TCT a shoutout for catching this CBS dirty trick. Salcedo bills himself as a “Liberty loving Latino”. He is great.
He came out today,saying that he was wrong and apologized. Siting TCT as where he got the wrong info.
everyday I despise the democrats more and more.
everyday I hope for the demise of o’blackie more and more.
Those poor people, they don’t even know they’re not Hispanics, or LATINOS, they’re Latinx (laa-TINKS). Good thing there are overweight white women with blue hair and piercings to stand up for them even when they don’t know what to call themselves or who to support.
Chris Wallace: “It’s OK that none of the Biden supporters in the photo had masks, their replacements will be imported starting Nov. 4th.”
FB is not allowing me to repost.
Chris Salcedo on Newsmax had a good shoutout for CTH yesterday on this. But today he apologized. He bought the CBS explanation. I watched the whole news report and it was bash Trump all the way. That deceptive banner was left up all the way through that segment so it would appear Biden has more support than he does. This does illustrate why it has been so long since I have watched lsm, including Fox less and less.
My 85-year-old father wrote a creative parody of the song, “It’s a Sin to Tell a Lie” about the fake news media. Thought I’d share it here for anyone interested. A little silly, but kinda fun:
