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.

How grotesque! If the Lamestream media was ever honest nobody would believe them.
Also notice how they blurred the placard Trump signs held by those present. This took some effort and was planned in advance. They need to be publicly shamed by Lou Dobbs and Tucker. As well as by PTrump.
They need to be sued. Big time!
It says Trump on the white hat. I can’t believe this was orchestrated. I think this should be portrayed as utter incompetence on the part of Biden and his supporters. They have no clue how to avoid mistakes and facts are just boring, no time for those!
4sure – we all need to make sure we post this far and wide; share with as many “normies” as possible; Facebook, Twitter, Parler, etc. I believe it makes a difference! Expose them as often as possible!
Our very own Treeper Henry saw the tweet and told us early this morning – check the Presidential post, look for Henry’s comment.
We didn’t need any instructions on what to do…
Thanks again Henry!
Hmmmm, where’s hunter?

In Florida all the FCC licenses for broadcast media are up for renewal. Current applicants have up to October 1 to apply for renewal.
Citizens can comment on their renewals. Comments are due by Jan 22, 2021.
If this crap is to end, it will require action in reporting these types of malfeasance by the license holders.
Who knows, perhaps a license or three can be freed up for providing actual facts. Wouldn’t that be nice!

The lying media is becoming a parody of itself.
susan zirinsky at it again. remember the video of a hospital in italy that cbs said was new york city? susan zirinsky apologized saying that cbs made a mistake. aweek later cbs showed the same video this time claiming it was a hospital in florida. liberal america is happy with a media like this because they’re the morally superior people.
And let’s not forget about the picture MSNBC had on live TV claiming the cities were burning from protest but the picture was from the movie world war z
Pallywood:
Show footage of children’s skeletons from Rwanda or the Holocaust and say, “This is Gaza!”
Before Clyburn raised his candidacy from the dead, Biden had next to zero support as did Harris. Now the dems are stuck with two non-entities.
Trump should file a wazoo lawsuit against all these fake news outlets!
The women with the I Love Trump hat is a major bust.
Can the dumbocrats sink any lower. No accountability to anyone. They are now beyond despicable, and what of the press that aid and abet? We are facing a most treacherous opponent. I hope we are up to it. Trump – 4 more years!!
Yes
Looks to me like this snooty reporterette just answered her own obnoxious question.
*itch!
The outfit worn in scene 1 is not the same in scene 2 – so not the same person
Fake video, come in man, do you think you’re corn pop?
It is posted as ‘combined’ footage. Nothing fake about it.
WOW – that is reaching.
Trump should offer Biden to bring Harris along for the presidential debate(s). it would be 3 against 1. (I included the moderator)
….and they would still be outmatched by PDJT, He regularly handles 20+ more of them at his impromptu briefings and they still don’t get it.
Dan Rather must still be a strategy consultant for CBS News, where fake news is the rule of the day.
Dan is one of the OGs of Fake News, lol.
I knew the MSM were dirtbags, but now I know they are dirtbags to the core. It is deep down to the roots.
WOW
the democrat party-media complex is the greatest threat to the freedom of the american people in the history of this country
Given the HUGE vocal, passionate, flag-waving Trump-Supporter reception Kamala Harris received here yesterday, they don’t have a chance – not a snowball’s chance in South Florida!
She was under heavy security and constantly screamed at with many variations of “GET OUT!! GET OUT OF HERE! We will not let you turn this country into a communist country!!” She made the colossal mistake of going to two Venezuelan eateries in Doral (a Venezuelan community).
The media suppressed videos can be seen on the “LaTrumpista” Instagram and Twitter Media accounts! (Apologies that I don’t know how to load it on here)
Unfortunately they will take Miami- Dade, Hillsborough, Orange, Osceola, Duval, Broward, Leon and Palm Beach, counties, they almost always do.
Florida will be like 2016 again where you have the more rural areas voting twice as hard against the large city liberal enclaves.
The latins in Miami Dade will be a hard split based on former nationality. Cubans and others are hard core conservatives for the most part. Most of the former south and central american and other island populations still have not learned the lesson of irony.
Ballot harvesting will negate any Latino votes for PDJT.
Sad, but probable.
Orange and Osceola are new to the list because of all the Puerto Ricans that moved up there and decided to ruin those counties like they have ruined their island down in the Caribbean.
Duval voted for the President last time and has been voting red lately.
Unfortunately there are more NY refugees than Cuban refugees in South Florida to have much hope for that area.
Throw Gadsden and Alachua in there because of the college vote.
Hey but my county on the Space Coast voted for the President by 20%.
Agreed, the area has landstar homes and their campaigns in the 1990s to thank for that
Most of the Puerto Rican population is now the second generation transplants from NY and NJ. It’s like getting double F-ed in the area of neighbors you’d prefer not to have
Your assessment is accurate, Dman! But here’s hoping they have finally seen the light with the outright socialist agenda the D-rats are now showing.
Pelosi got the same reception by Cubans in Miami – things actually got violent.
Sorry about the youtube link:
BigDeeTX,
Good video, however that was a while back, maybe 10 to 12 plus weeks back, possibly longer. Lost track of time with the COVID-19 FAKE PANDEMIC Mandates. Days and weeks kinda run together. ?? Do Not think that Nancy left California, maybe?
You’re right about that, BigDee, I had forgotten.
And there are young black Trump supporters knocking on doors and registering new Trump voters all over Florida.
I know people who’ve recently moved down to S. FL. from up North. Trump supporters who’ve HAD it up there w/ the Dem Politics.
I want Florida to turn So.Red. that Dems won’t even *want* to move here.
I hate to think this, but I hope they are not fake Pres Trump supporters trying to get info for voter fraud .
Harris-Biden Campaign slogan:
“Plagiarism R Us”
The Donald has driven these people crazy. They have never had to contend with someone that picked up the sh*t they threw and returned their fire hitting them smack upside the head.
Salute to you Donald. Well Done.
The progressives, liberals, and Democrats are lobbing hand grenades into the Trump lines. Trump supporters are responding by pulling the pins on the grenades and tossing them right back.
The part I find most enjoyable is that they thought this nonsense would win in 2016. It backfired bigly and rather than try something new, they just doubled down on everything. Too funny. Nice catch though 😀
You have to admit that the desperation of these dirt bags has taken them to a new low level of debauchery. No doubt they will go even lower as we get closer to the election.
Norah O’Donnell is on Twitter trying to defend their lies. What a sick degenerate.
Tell Norah, Babe, there is NO Defense for their obvious, stupid lies!!!
As raised by SD before Twitter, FB and MSM control is to depict an image of Trump supporters as isolated. And conservative thought as hate speech. Blacks that do not conform with the message are a feared group and therefore attacked even more so. The left and their media friends must create division between races, ages, sexes etc. They can not stand Trump addressing America (as one group). They can not tolerate the thought of a free, independent America.
One would think the Republican National Committee would file a request to the Federal Election Commission to have those ads being run on those news channels as ‘in-kind’ campaign contributions by the networks for Biden’s campaign.
I wonder, if sharing that tweet which shows the stealing of the photo of the Trump people and inserting them as if they are Biden people would be marked as ‘manipulated media’ by the Facebook minders.
bessie2003,
Could be an interesting experiment as to how honest the fact checkers really are. I know know fact checkers and honest, probably is a bridge to far??
Yeah, this is what we expect from these freaks now. But you know what? I’m not particularly concerned about THIS attempt at manipulation… because THIS one is lame beyond belief.
I mean if they were hoping to make people think Biden had a big crowd, they could have used some kind of wide-angle shot of any Trump rally, blurred things a little, and there ya go. But that’s NOT what they did here. Anyone watching the feed, and even just catching a quick glimpse of this picture is most likely gonna do a double-take. “So now Trump supporters are attending Biden events?” Which will make them look closer, and realizing pics have been switched, they MAY go looking for an actual picture of the Biden event and…
Oops!
Besides keeping Joe B away from the public, the DNC is also returning to their November 2018 Strategy, with media assistance, of claiming the President’s agenda is their 2020 Platform.
Look for AOC, BLM, ANTIFA and the rest of the alphabet rioters be given the full Green Light after the DNC makes a faux public display of cutting them loose to the President’s issue, while the media pins all the violence on the President’s actions.
The Russians obviously hacked Biden’s rally.
Speaking of AZ and Latinos/Hispanics….I mentioned before that we have several Hispanics working for us and they ALL are pro-Trump. As well as their families and friends. I don’t know ANY Hispanic (and I’ve lived here my whole life and know lots…as well as being friends AND family by marriage to a few) who aren’t voting for Trump. They LOVE him. I think, in part, because the Hispanic culture is pro strong/tough men….and they think Trump is El Jefe! They laugh at Biden.

Why do things you know you are immediately going to get caught for?
Because they are not used to being called out when they are caught. And this little incident won’t make waves beyond the conservative blog-o-sphere either.
I’m afraid you’re right.
But LatinosForTrump know.
And they’re the voters, after all.
Twitchy is saying that the narration with the picture contrasted the President’s popularity with Hispanics, something Joe doesn’t have. Twitchy is apologizing. The picture and the words under it certainly make it look like your headline
I’m glad they’re apologizing because if one were to watch the video, they’d understand that it wasn’t deception. IMO we need to hold ourselves to a higher standard and make corrections when we’ve assumed something incorrectly.
It’s astonishing that they thought it wouldn’t be noticed, after all the times they’ve been caught.
But I suppose the people who want to believe it is a picture of Biden supporters WILL believe it is a picture of Biden supporters. (Kinda like, who cares about evidence, it is the seriousness of the charge that matters.)
This reminds me of the time back in 2009 or so when MSNBC tried to paint the Tea Party as Racist Gun Nuts by cropping a photo of a man with a rifle at a Tea Party Rally.
Turns out the man was Black. MSNBC just conveniently cropped out all areas of the photo where he was not covered in clothes.
Think Rachel Maddow was the purveyor of that one.
I recall it was CNN, and they had zoomed in tight from behind on a black man with a pistol on his hip. But there was still a chunk of his black arm showing, so they pasted over that corner of the photo with a CNN logo, on the diagonal!
Slimeballs ‘R Us!
I think it would be useful just to have an entire daily thread on fake news…would be great for a database for future reference.
Anyways, here’s another fraud…enjoy the hypocrisy…nothing new, but after the way they went after the mask thing today in the presser, just thought I would drop this here…
First, Joe plagiarized Buy American. Now, he’s plagiarizing actual Americans.
#WhatWouldLordKinnockDo?
Are we getting sloppy here? When I look at the whole video (from the 3:20-3:50 mark) it doesn’t look to me like they are claiming those are Biden crowds. Someone correct me if I am wrong. https://www.cbsnews.com/video/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/#x
You are not wrong.
The groupthink on display in this thread is actually very concerning to me. I worry that we are becoming no better than the BLM lunatics who go riot the moment a black man gets shot by police without even bothering to take 60 seconds to research what happened to lead up to it…
It is easy to swallow something from someone you trust. It was someone’s comment about intentionally blurring signs that put me in research mode. It didn’t take a lot of effort to track down who tweeted the original post, then view the twitter thread to see that someone had posted the whole CBS segment.
I’m genuinely concerned by how easily many here fall prey to confirmation bias. I’m especially disappointed that Sundance would do this.
I’ve been reading here for over a decade and the reason I’ve been here so long is because Sundance normally provides actual context and source material to back up his claims.
I worry that that might be changing.
We have to hold ourselves to the standards that we expect of others.
WHen I finally found the clip,, from a tweet.. it kinda made sense.. They were talking about Trumps campaign when they showed the pic..
It was really poorly timed.. all around.
I pointed this out in the main thread. Go to 3:40. The crawler doesn’t match the image. However, it was the lead in to the report about Trump. You could still call it misleading, but it isn’t as bad as the tweet makes it sound.
TY… then again the sloppiness could have been on purpose. Who knows with those ejits…
Well, no one should be surprised. I know I’m not. The real question is what are conservatives/conservative politicians going to do to combat this? Time is almost up.
I want to say I don’t know how they get away with this kind of stuff. but I do know. There’s simply no consequences for anything the left does in this country. Absolutely none
I want to say the GOP should sue these propaganda centers posing as news media, but I won’t, because I know they won’t sue because they’re all in on the democrat lies and propaganda too
That photo they used is a lie and blatant deception. The headline under it isn’t opinion, it’s part and parcel of the lie and deception, joining the two to deceive the public and to try and sway an election
CBS and all the other so called “media” absolutely know this and it’s absolutely done on purpose, but absolutely nothing is ever done about it
The MS “Media” and our politicians are allowed to lie to the public’s faces day in and day out and their allowed to deceive us on every issue with nonsensical gobbledegook that confuses and answers nothing
Straight news should be simple facts, and, besides opinion media, are responsible for delivering just that
They use our airwaves and are bound by ethic clauses yet they just keep on lying and deceiving with impunity, and nobody does a damn thing about it
CBS is propaganda arm of the demonrats. Manipulation of the photos are very malicious.
This is bull$h*t. Please do a little background research before simply retweeting something that seems to expose MSM malfeasance. This does more damage than help to the cause, folks.
The photo in question was shown in the larger context of a story about the Biden campaign and the voice over while the photo was on screen was this:
“The President has cut into Biden’s advantage by wooing conservative Latinos with ominous warnings about a Biden presidency…”
But don’t take my word for it. See the piece for yourself here, at about 02:40 in the video:
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/
It is misleading. They don’t ever say “compared to President Trump’s Latino event”.
It is not misleading.
If you watch the clip you’ll see that while those images are up the anchor is talking about how Trump is gaining latino support…
The trouble is, if the Public at Large don’t pay attention, and notice this stuff, Trump will only be ble to counter it by running ads,
If you think it won’t work, go look at the movie “Wag the Dog.”
While you watch that movie notice two things.
The FBI appeared wanting to know what was going on . When it was explained to them, the FBI became a full participant.
The other is the Rep Candidate a(played by Craig T. Nelson) nearly upset the applecart by making his own public announcement that “by virtue of my back channel negotiations, I am happy to report the War is Over!”
So it can work both ways.
The Biden Teleprompter ad should run every hour on every network.
And be followed by a reprise of the Goldwater/Spiro Agnew “One heartbeat away” ads and start hammering who is REALLY the Candidate.
So I guess they didn’t notice the people holding up 4 fingers, as in 4 more years, as in PDJT. And I think I see a woman with a Trump hat on.
I don’t pay any attention to those LIBERAL rags. The ONLY time I know about anything the known, proven liars, cheats and thieves have to say is when a site I trust carries their water for them by telling me about what they think, say and do, otherwise the rags would only serve to blow my nose on. WHO CARES what a known, proven liar, cheat and thief thinks, says or does? Besides those who make money off of the STRIFE created!
Hey Sundance. I despise the MSM and a full PDJT MAGA supporter, but your reporting here may be a little off. You are not doing yourself favor by using a screen shot instead of the actual video clip, as you usually do. The CBS segment was reporting that Hispanics were turning out for Trump and not for the Biden event. Unfortunately, the screen banner was left up when they showed a clip of the Trump AZ ‘Hispanics for Trump’ event. I am not defending them, but your reporting here is wrong.
Still misleading. They also didn’t report that Kamala was booed out of a latino restaurant while in FL.
I agree fanbeav. We can’t expect fair MSM reports. But I do expect it here.
But those ARE BIden’s Florida Latinos!
After the Biden event, they went to Arizona to boo President Trump. They even wore the same clothes and lined up in the same order. Biden’s Latino supporters will do anything . . . travel any distance . . . incur any expense . . . to show how loyal and devoted they are.
The press should dress up as either Charles Boyer or Angela Lansbury and get it over with.
How many “I Trump” hats does the media usually see at Biden rallies?
“I -heart- Trump” hats – silly WordPress didn’t like brackets
Absolutely! The woman with the white baseball hat and a white cell phone in her hands. Her hat clearly reads “I (HEART) TRUMP”.
I hate the fraudnews as much as anybody but I would be remiss if I didn’t challenge this. I don’t know who this AZ_LD25FO_TDuc twitter user is, but she got it wrong. After watching the CBS clip about latino voter outreach myself, it’s pretty clear they weren’t mis-representing MAGA latino supporters as supporters of Oldfinger (Biden). This twitter user appears to have simply captured a snapshot of a CBS news chyron at a particular moment of the segment and blasted it all over twitter. The segment was about Oldfinger’s need for latino voter outreach (hence the chyron). Twitchy.com posted her twitter feed earlier today and has since issued a correction.
The latino voter outreach CBS segment in question begins at the 2:33 mark posted below.
You can watch the segment here: https://www.cbs.com/shows/cbs_evening_news/video/Pp3YIcETWZEC_QRQlddI8_mLdg7kyjdP/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/
Secondly, I’m seeing a lot of buzz everywhere about the lack of supporters visible at Oldfinger’s campaign stops. I think it’s important that we all understand Oldfinger is running an attendance free “virtual campaign” for a multitude of reasons. There isn’t supposed to be anybody there. The virtual campaign allows his handlers to 1) maintain control of all events, 2) hide his true support (or lack thereof in this case), 3) take public interactions out of the equation to hide his mental state and 4) keep COVID scaremongering at the forefront of his campaign.
I’m not opposing this to be a concern troll or a debbie downer. I don’t want out side to succumb to arrogance and sloppiness. This election is too important for that so let’s leave arrogance, overconfidence, and sloppiness to the democrats. That’s why they’re in the position they’re in in the first place.
I am not so sure: what spoils your theory is the blurring of TRUMP signs and hats. Is that just a coincidence? If everything were blurred okay. But when only certain things blurred, that takes time and a computer.
The signs aren’t blurred out, and neither are the Trump hats…
Bwahahahaha! Imagine an election strategy where you have to steal another candidates supporters because you cant fill a Dunkin Donuts with anyone that wants to vote for you. I know- why not get all those stupid BLM and PAntifa rioters and have them show up with Joe and Kumala signs? They’re on the DNC payroll anyway.
I used to think the “enemy of the people” moniker was hyperbole. Now I don’t think it goes far enough. The press has abdicated their duties and responsibilities as they hide behind their first amendment rights. They are more than enemies. They are traitors, working against the very citizens they are sworn to protect from the abuse they champion. They will never regain trust, and shouldn’t.
I love this. Biden is running like Mr. Magoo for president.
Well isn’t this interesting:

And support his psychotic drug and sex addicted failure of a son.
If you want to kill your kid, give him/her unlimited funds for drugs.??♀️
@Sundance & ALL CTH readers/commenters
As much as the MSM engages in lies and deceit, this is simply not one of those times.
That banner was up while the news anchors were talking about Biden being in FL to work on his failing support with latino voters. That screengrab takes the newscast out of context. While that image is up, with that banner along the bottom, the anchor is talking about how Trump is connecting with latino voters.
There was no implication that those were latinos at an event to support Biden.
The anchors explicitly state, while that image is up, that Trump is gaining latino support.
I expect better here, but it seems as if even Sundance is falling prey to confirmation bias without any concern for researching first. This happened just a few weeks ago in regards to the man who shot and killed that Trump supporter. Sundance in that post claimed law enforcement was refusing to arrest the man because he was a BLM/Antifa supporter citing zero evidence. The man was killed in a failed arrest a few days later.
I love this site.
I love all that Sundance does to call out lies and corruption.
But in this instance, Sundance is failing both himself and the rest of the treehouse.
And to everyone here howling about how terrible this is…. shame on you for casting judgement without taking the time to verify first.
Are we no better than the left?
Let the dogpile begin. I’ve been subject to it before, and I’m sure it won’t be the last…
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/#x
Beware confirmation bias…
Thank you! It’s important to keep EVERYONE honest.
Twitchy ran with this as well but has now walked it back after some legitimate conservative push-back.
https://twitchy.com/sarahd-313035/2020/09/16/sad-looks-like-cbs-news-got-caught-trying-to-pass-latinos-for-trump-off-as-joe-biden-supporters-pics/
Well CBS personalites were attempting to ‘splain it away. Didn’t work too well! LOL
Except in this instance… the CBS people are correct.
That image takes the entire segment out of context.
While that image is up, the anchor is talking about how Trump is actually gaining Latino support…
It is deceptive journalism the the Eastern Block countries do. Notice how the image is cropped and the MAGA woman with the TRUMP hat is cut out. When I taught a middle school elective journalism class in 1988, we taught our students about perspective of narrowing or widening the lens. Even had 1st generation immigrant children bring it their parent’s home papers to discuss and compare journalism. Had to block out a lot bc of actual violent executions posted on page 1!
The photo is not cropped.
Images too large to fit in a tweet are cropped in the tweet, but if you click on them you see the full size image.
If you would have taken 10 seconds to click on the tweet, and then click on the image, you would have realized that it was a full size image of the room and that it was full of Trump gear and signs. None of them blurred, or any of the other crazy ideas being floated around in this thread.
You taught journalism… and yet you can’t do basic research on a subject before stating your opinions on it?
“Biden pitches crucial Latino voters during Florida campaign stop” while showing a packed room full of Latino’s intending to give the impression that they’re all there for Biden.
Did CBS say this is from Trumps Florida visit ? Nope , it was purposely meant to get people to believe that Biden has Latino supporters which he doesn’t of course . Biden is drawing even less people than Clinton .
No it wasn’t.
You’re either being intentionally dense about this or you haven’t taken the few minutes it would take to watch the segment (which has been linked multiple times in this thread) and find out the truth for yourself.
While the image is up, the anchor is literally talking about Trump gaining support among Latino voters. The image clearly showed plenty of Trump/MAGA hats and signs.
Chris, if you haven’t watched the video you might want to. The image is up at the time they say, “The President’s has cut into Biden’s advantage by wooing conservative Latinos…” The entire piece starts with an admission that Biden isn’t doing well with the Latino vote and goes on to discuss that.
Zachary Navarre,
I think the real deception is implied. “CUT INTO BIDEN’S ADVANTAGE BY WOOING *CONSERVATIVE* LATINOS.”
Advantage??? Talk about gaslighting!
s
You may want to read the caption below the photo.
You may want to actually watch the segment.
Sorry, but I’m not buying, “It was the fault of the chyron for not keeping up with the dialogue” excuse. This was absolutely an intentional, but plausibly deniable, misrepresentation to make viewers think that people are actually going to see Biden, which they’re not.
Watch for yourself if you don’t believe me:
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/#x
It’s about halfway through the segment.
except for the caption that reads “Biden pitches to crucial Latinos at Florida campaign stop”. That is the misleading part
It’s not misleading. They talked about Biden going to FL to reach out to Latinos BEFORE that image, while that same banner was on the screen. And when that image is up, they are talking about how Trump is gaining support…
The banner was up for the whole segment, it didn’t just appear when that image came up.
Spot on comment….these are not the droids you are looking for, move along!
Talk is cheap…and proven long ago to not be as effective as graphics.
CBS tried to weasel this one past their unsuspecting viewers.
They never LABELED the photo as being of the Trump event. They deliberately left the chyron text up while displaying the Trump event photo. I don’t care what they yammered about on the microphpones…their viewers eyes & brains associated the text with the image.
VISUAL IMAGES HAVE MEASURABLY MORE IMPACT THAN VERBAL.
These MSM / Deep State masters at psychological deception know this basic fact very well.
That is precisely why the video/photo was not clarified VISUALLY with a sign or banner
Nonetheless, the chyron reads Biden. That is intentional deception
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/biden-visits-florida-to-meet-latino-voters/#x
Watch the segment for yourself.
You are wrong.
Except that the video isn’t with the photo each time it is posted. CBS posts it on Twatter and FB but then their followers repost w/o including the video. So…many will see the cropped photo with the ‘Biden’ tag and think they are Biden supporters. Duplicity at its finest.
My daughter also pointed out to me that in another image they used, that it showed him with some union members with signs, and no one was wearing a mask. So that couldn’t have been current. CBS apparently isn’t concerned about having accurate or current pictures to match their banners or commentary, just having a graphic on the screen.
TV news knows that most people aren’t too observant and catch few discrepancies, and I can understand why people don’t. Was it ABC that used a gun range photo to represent the battle in Syria last year or so ago? But I believe people, in the age of hi-def are getting more and more aware and catching things that the news used to be able slide by. Their intention in presenting “news” is for deception and propaganda purposes and we know that.
It is good to keep holding their feet to the fire but I hope we don’t get too bogged down with things like this. Please, let’s all of us keep focused on the really important issues.
Zack, it’s not about believing you – but believing what CBS was saying and concurrently showing.
I watched the entire segment with Nora O’Donnell, who spent over three years pushing one conspiracy theory after another about Trump. The clip began with what should have been a celebration of the new peace accords in the Middle East, Nora devoted about three seconds to repeat what Trump had said about his peace deals before abruptly shifting to this stupid remark:
“Before the ink was dry, there were already signs that Israel still had enemies in the region and they aren’t celebrating”
Really, Nora? Gee…never would have known that if you hadn’t pointed it out.
Then, she turns it over to her WH correspondent, Paula Reid, who misrepresented how the President felt about the changing landscape by dismissively saying that “Trump hopes this will appeal to evangelical and Jewish voters.” No, Paula. Trump didn’t do this for votes like your scumbag Democrats might do – that is, if they didn’t hate Jews and Israel so much. He did it to bring stability to a very unstable region which has been his foreign policy focus for the entire world starting from his first day as President. Quite different from Obama whose first contact with a foreign leader after his inauguration was Mahmoud Abbas, the leader of the Palestinian Authority. Obama hated Netanyahu with a passion – in case you were wondering why the Prime Minister of our closest ally had to go through the Servants Entrance to visit Obama.
Reid wasn’t done trashing Trump and his peace accords saying that Israel and the Arab nations were not at war and that “this was more of a business deal than a peace accord.” If it was Obama instead of Trump, they would have devoted half of their show reporting on how wonderful it was. They then brought in Robert Malley who became a foreign policy advisor to then Presidential candidate, Obama, in 2007. If you wanted a “Who’s Who” of Israel haters, you couldn’t find a better list than those who served on Obama’s WH Transition Team.
In 2008, Malley joined Obama’s National Security Council and didn’t waste time becoming an enemy of Israel. He blamed Israel for the failed Camp David peace negotiations with Yasser Arafat in 2000 when it was clearly the fault of Arafat. He consistently condemned Israel, exonerated Palestinians, urged U.S. disengagement from Israel, and recommended that America reach out to negotiate with its traditional Arab enemies.
If Arafat was alive, CBS would have put him on instead. They showed videos of the protests in Gaza which, if it was ANTIFA, Reid would’ve called them, “Mostly peaceful protests.” You would never know that the Palestinian leadership rejected every peace agreement offered to them to have their own state if you only got your news from CBS.
Then they ran a totally botched story about Michael Caputo, the Health and Human Services spokesman who they mislabeled as “Trump’s Top Coronavirus Aide at the CDC.” Then Reid says that he was “being relieved of his position” because he was “accused of altering reports to fit the President’s narrative.” Wow! That had nothing to do with anything! Even a clock is right twice a day but I doubt that these clowns could get one story right when it has to do with Trump..
Caputo said that scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were harboring a “resistance unit” to undermine Trump, and warned of an armed uprising if the President lost the election. Does that sound like he was altering reports? Nope. We already know about the armed uprising since the Democrats and their Media buddies have been talking about it all last week and how violence would increase if Joe Biden doesn’t win in a landslide. Don’t know what CBS calls it but normal people call it extortion. As for the first part about a “resistance unit” undermining the President, I’ve heard this story before about a bunch of Deep State bureaucrats in the CDC (SHOCKER!) who’ve been feeding misinformation to Trump to sow division between himself and the “dynamic duo” of Fauci and Birx – sounds about right to me.
OK, now we get to the segment in question. Nora begins talking about Biden traveling to Florida to shore up his support with Latino voters, noting that Hillary did better with them in 2016 than Biden is doing now and, quote, “She only lost Florida by one point.” The difference was actually 1.2% – which sounds very small – until you realize that this represents a difference of 113,040 votes. This segment was all about Biden with Trump’s Latino support being more of a footnote than a feature.
They began by playing the clip of Biden repeating the vicious lie that appeared in the Atlantic about what Trump said on his visit to the military cemetery. As expected, there was zero correction from the CBS reporters. Then they changed the chyron to the one shown in the photo, BUT, unlike every other chyron that preceded it – which were changed to match what was shown on the screen – they didn’t change this one and just left it up for the duration of the video which focused on Biden’s campaign stop in Florida.
Which is what you’d expect from an organization who operates like a propaganda arm of the Democrat Party and a cheerleader for the Biden campaign.
Mediamoron.
Typical wag the dog technique. Oh, and what is a CBS?
CBS = Corrupt Bunch of Socialists
