Trump: Piers Morgan Deceptively Edited the Tape to Make It Look Like I Stormed Out of the Interview When I Did Not.
FOX NEWS, IMPLICATED IN THE HOAX, REFUSES COMMENT

Oh, I completely believe this because the malicious edit was such an obvious cut-and-splice hostaet job that you could see it was a Moon-Landing-Level fake in their own presentation.

Just kidding about the Moon Landing, just seeing who's awake and who's rushing to the comments.

At Breitbart, to whom Trump gave audio of the actual interview.

And by the way, for the future: Bring your own video guy, too, Mr. Trump. You do have money, you know. Not only would you have the video when you need it -- and video is much more compelling than audio -- but the very presence of a video camera in the room would be a huge deterrent to media liars like this.

The 30-second clip that Morgan's team released splashed across tabloids and media outlets, taking the lead spot across the Drudge Report with multiple links accusing Trump of having a "meltdown." In it, Morgan splices several clips together that make it seem like as on-screen graphics and a deep male voice over says that Trump is a "former president in denial" over the 2020 election. The promo, which calls it "the most explosive interview of the year," pulls a few short clips of Trump calling Morgan "a fool" and saying "this is very dishonest" and "let's finish up the interview," before showing Trump standing up and walking away and saying "turn the camera off."

But that's not what happened--not even close. Trump spent more than an hour with Morgan, and the way the promo clip cuts together what it calls "Morgan Versus Trump" moments to promote the interview which will air on this coming Monday night is particularly deceptive. Most of those moments had nothing to do with the election issue at all, and the full audio of the last bit of the interview shows that Trump standing up and walking away and saying "turn the camera off" came after Morgan ended the interview and thanked Trump for a "great interview."

The audio file obtained by Breitbart News, which is about seven and a half minutes long, begins with Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich interjecting into the middle of the interview to tell Morgan to wrap it up. "We're an hour in," Budowich says. "We need to wrap."

Morgan responds by begging for more time with Trump. "Just a few quick questions and then--" Morgan says. "Thank you," Budowich responds.

Morgan next asks Trump to define the meaning of a woman, to which Trump responds by bashing Lia Thomas--the biological male transgender athlete who has been competing in women's swimming events--then Morgan just keeps rolling asking more and more questions.

Check Breitbart for the all of the questions asked here, but they are not about the election of 2020 -- but that's what Morgan deceitfully edited the video to make it appear was asked of Trump before he "stormed off."


Morgan then starts asking another question, this time about his time together with Trump when they co-starred on The Apprentice, and another Trump aide can be heard in the background saying as Morgan begins it: "Last question." Morgan replies to that person by saying: "Yeah, yeah."

After another minute of back and forth between Trump and Morgan, Morgan asks Trump's team for yet another "last question."

Budowich replies by saying: "You've done last question four times now. I feel like you're lying at this point."

Trump interjects and says "very deceptive."

"You've said last question four times," Budowich says.

"I haven't asked about--I wanted to end with your hole-in-one," Morgan says, then asks Trump to describe his recent hole-in-one when playing alongside golf legend Ernie Els.

Trump agrees and says "go ahead." Then Morgan asks his question, and Trump answers for more than a minute. After that's over, Morgan agrees the interview is over and thanks Trump for a "great interview."

Audio at Breitbart. I wish there were video.

Seriously, Trump. Spend a dollar here and there, would ya?

So Trump had been trying to wrap the interview for more than eight minutes and none of the questions at the end were about the 2020 election but Piers Morgan just flat-out lied and claimed that questions about the election led to Trump storming out.

Now, bear in mind, Piers Morgan now works for Fox News -- this is for his new show, "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on Fox's streaming service Fox Nation -- and so Fox is paying for this complete fabrication and has this open and brazen fabricator as a "news" star.

Even NBC is exposing Fox's shameless dishonesty!

That's how far Fox has fallen!

NBC News, which also published a story about the Trump team's audio file, got a spokesperson for News Corporation to provide this comment in response to the deceptive editing revelations: "We have nothing to comment beyond the public information (i.e. the video clip and Piers' column in the NY Post)."

"A producer for Morgan did not immediately return an email for comment," NBC's report adds.

So what are we going to do about this?

How long are we going to put up with Fox attempting to Con the Rubes back into being compliant little neoliberal sheep who follow the orders of their corporate Chamber of Commerce masters again, and stop with their distasteful social conservative and border security demands and get back to the important business of "conservatism" like cutting the corporate tax rates and the personal income tax rates for billionaires?

Is Fox really going to keep Piers Morgan on payroll? Are they really going to allow him to keep his show?

Are the Fox News sheep going to keep grazing in the Fox News pastures without making some Final Demands that Fox either shape up or the sheep will ship out?

Trump did have his own video?

20 I can't believe that ALL interviews aren't also recorded by the interviewee's own crew. It's so cheap now that anyone can do it. Hell, just set up an iphone.

I have taken and defended hundreds of legal depositions. Probably 50% were video recorded, and some from back in the day when that cost thousands of bucks a day. Never once was any of the video actually used at trial or for anything. It never really was intended to be. The real purpose was to keep the deponent -- and the lawyers -- "honest" and on their best behavior. It worked.

I have no doubt that asshole scumbag interviewers like Morgan would be less asshole-y and scumbag-y if they knew full video was being taken by the interviewee.

The power company had the foresight to bring their own camera as well as recording device. They then released the documentary to show how 60 Minutes deceptively edited virtually every response.

The actual post:

Piers is up to his usual bullshit. I don't have a problem with the questioning. This is going to be standard questioning from the left. Trump has made the fraudulence of the 2020 election a centerpiece of his campaign for 2024 (re) election. I wouldn't have done that, but he did. He has to defend that.

And he has to expect to defend that from an extremely hostile propagandistic media.

But the framing around these clips, the dramatic voice-over of "A FORMER PRESIDENT IN DENIAL" is, well, pure Piers Morgan -- dishonest, carnival-barker-y, hyped-up tabloid lies.

Based on the hype, I was expecting Trump to look really bad. And then he looks... not bad at all. The "bad" thing he does is walk out, but that's not really bad. He gets up calmly and says "turn the cameras off" calmly, which is his right.

92 How long are we going to put up with Fox attempting to Con the Rubes...

I already do not support Fox, or Disney, or Sportsball Inc..

The answer to "how long do you put up with this" is once. If a news service lies to me then they have no value as a news service. If a news service, in a rush to be first to publish, repeatedly gets things wrong...even innocently...then they have no value as a news service.

Once they have demonstrated that they cannot be trusted to tell the truth, nothing they say has value.

It's hilarious. I haven't trusted Fox since they were giddy with obvious glee (and a ton of obscenely early calls) during the 2018 election coverage. They exposed themselves then, but kept up the pretense for a while longer.

And yet, what has it bought Fox? Nothing. The right increasingly holds them in contempt because they're the same as all the rest and the left still hates them for being "conservative." Fox abandoned its actual market to play in the already saturated space of state-affiliated leftist propaganda outlets. I don;t think anyone is falling for it. Fox still has higher viewership than the others, but I know many people who now respond like, "Fox News? Fuck 'em."

176 Piers Morgan is an anti 2nd gun grabber. Since 1776 all Brit elites have been pissed that they couldn't take our guns and in trying to do so they lost bigly. They act as if they have a foot stuck up their arse (which they probably do anyhow). Boris and Piers included of course.

So, instead, you have to assume the mantel of lawyer and parse every facet of the story like you are preparing to cross-examine a hostile witness. It's pointless and tedious, and it's a big part of the reason why reporters hold the same level of public esteem as derelicts and squeegee-men.

Yep. A wolf in Fox's clothing.

Conflict, conflict, conflict.

I abandoned FOXNews for over a year after Cavuto pulled his stunt on covering a Trump Admin presser. It was the last straw. But because there's only so much rerun I can take from Newsmax, I've allowed Tucker and Gutfeld into the house for the past six or so months.

But FOXNews isn't conservative; it's just not Communist or CNN+. I'm just surprised Morgan couldn't contain his BS for even a few days. Once a CNNer, always a CNNer.

262 39 In business school mumble years ago, we watched a documentary about a power company interviewed by 60 Minutes. The power company had the foresight to bring their own camera as well as recording device. They then released the documentary to show how 60 Minutes deceptively edited virtually every response. Trump team should have known this. The media hasn't gotten better in the past 20 years.
Posted by: Thomas Paine at April 21, 2022 01:25 PM (5kI0z)

I believe that Trump videoed his last 60 Minutes interview with Lesley Stahl, and bigfooted her by releasing it before the Sunday broadcast.

But yes, he definitely should have brought a video guy with him. Heck, some flunky with a cell phone camera would have sufficed. Oh, and anyone who doesn't do this with the MFM is committing gross political malpractice.

well I said the headline is bullshit but if you're saying I should have just accused Morgan, based on nothing but pro-Trump sentiment, of having manipulated the video this brazenly even knowing that he'd be immediately found out.... I mean... no?

That's the kind of thing that people don't usually accuse other people of without evidence because it's so unlikely.

Usually people aren't this level of brazenly sociopathic to commit crimes in plain sight. So we don't accuse them of being that based on nothing but political hunches.

Piers Morgan is: Okay, fair enough. But I should have just leapt to say "HE CUT THE TAPE TO EDIT DIFFERENT PARTS TOGETHER EVEN KNOWING HE'D BE DISCOVERED IN HIS LIE WITHIN HOURS!" ?

It very nearly is. There are two Fox Newses. The first Fox News is the news division and it might as well be MSNBC's news division. The second Fox News is their non-news division - the side that does the commentary and has the big-name commentary talent. This side isn't totally bonkers or fully aligned with the Left, but it ain't exactly rock-ribbed. That's okay, but Tucker is the only one worth a damn in that crew as far as I'm concerned.

But the actual news division? Not a dime's worth of difference.

And someone made a good point above. How is a person like Trump, who is not part of the establishment, supposed to get his message out when all of social media, and the mainstream media combined have sworn a blood oath to make sure no one hears what he has to say and is willing to libel him incessantly to make sure that happens? Where is our outlet that can reach anyone but us?

One of the best things about Trump is that he will walk right into the lion's den and take it on. He actually enjoys it! And that is the ONLY sort of person who can make any headway for us.

Could be a legal trap being set. If the truth is known, and you continue to print a story KNOWING it is false, even as a Public Figure, you have a Legal cause of action.

So, release the tape... knowing they will continue to lie, then release the video? Then sue the shit out of them?

347 I know the device you mean, but can't recall its name. Pretty sure you can still buy them.

Radiometer, IIRC. Interesting concept, thought originally to be due to differential pressure from photons on the black vs white side, but the effect goes away in a total vacuum.

There has to be just a bit of air for the rotation to occur, probably due to differences in gas heating close to the surface of black vs white squares.

Then it had better be at a lower price point to entice cheaper subscribers onto the service.

One streaming service I use does this. They have a free ad-supported version with minimal library, a mid-tier paid option with a bigger library and still with ads, or a top-tier paid option with the full library and no ads. Netflix could try something like that. Dunno if it would work (probably not - their business model and books are a nightmare), but it would at least be a new approach to bleeding off subscribers.

no. sad fact, and it's hard to admit, but there is NO effective libel law in the US when a public figure is involved. It exists in theory, but I can't think of a case in living memory where any public figure won a libel suit.

If he goes to Washington he'll have the backstabbers in his own party working against him and it will be hard to get shit done.

Nah. "Get Woke, Go Broke" is wrong because it isn't a hard and fast rule. Sometimes a company gets woke and still does well (Nike) and sometimes it doesn't really matter (Chick-fil-a, though that was limited), sometime's it's a disaster (Gillette, Salvation Army).

Sorry, he's not my number one. I think he has a good chance of losing to a competent Democrat. I know there aren't many competent democrats but I don't want to trust the future of the country to the HOPE that the Democrats can't come up with a decent candidate.

And I'm not going to keep pretending he doesn't have all the obvious, terrible flaws he has.

428 The ad for the interview almost seems like an intentionally “over-the-top” promo, with a dramatic voiceover that was taken as true and then spiraled out of control. But if that were the case, if Fox isn’t saying as much, maybe both sides (Trump and Morgan) are playing along to goose ratings.

429 As I understand it, Trump always has his own video crew because he's been burned before. Dipstick Piers Morgan cannot have missed their presence.

What was he hoping to achieve here with this? Oh yeah, attention because that's all he cares about. Like that little kid in class who would throw a fit just to get noticed and the teacher told all the students to ignore him because he just wanted attention.

But you can't say Trump didn't accomplish some amazing things in the face of a massive array of resistance. He's proven he can get things done.

Honestly, I'm okay with either for 2024 but Trump 2024 and DeSantis through 2032 gives us a serious chance to stop the evil.

Posted by: Black Orchid
------------------
To some degree, Netflix was doomed as a streaming service because it did not own the movies and series it was showing. To try to remedy that, they went heavily into debt to buy rights, rent ip rights, and create its own series at exactly the wrong time creatively. Apple TV, YouTube, and Amazon Prime TV rely on video as a loss leader for their other profitable products (apple-tech products, Youtube is selling viewers info to advertisers, and Amazon--uses viewer info internally to shill and sells it plus has a whole storefront to guide people to). The other four left standing are integrated media companies--NBC/Universal/Comcast, ABC/Disney-MGM-ESPN, and CBS/Paramount, and Warner--WB, Turner, etc. with deep libraries of creative ip. Netflix has puny IP and a streaming platform.

-these guys feel like maybe you could be just like all the others when they believe that you were never really for trump (even though the blog split over that same issue. It was not the anti-Trumpers who stayed.) They worry that you are a MORE trusted individual who will betray them in the end. So in the end, it is not about Trump, Trump is just a symbol for all the other horseshit that has gone down over the past fucking 15-20 years.

Posted by: AlaBAMA at April 21, 2022 02:08 PM (4fSQf)

This is where I respectfully disagree. Trump has better instincts than any politician I've ever seen before. As a neophyte who never ran for dog catcher, he zeroed in on an issue that professional politicians avoided like the plague, and rode it to the White House. He instinctively knew that huge deficits with the Chinese were weapons to be used against them, not reasons to buckle beneath them. It goes on and on, but I struggle to find an issue that he had bad instincts on. Except, of course, faith in the system that made him a billionaire. There, however, so many of us were very wrong.

With a few exceptions on AoSHQ, of course.

579 and again, I don't hate Trump, I just think he's very flawed and badly political damaged and will lose to a reasonable Democrat.

Do the Democrats have a reasonable Democrat? I dunno, but I don't want to risk the future of the Republic on the gamble that they can't find one if they have a gun to their head, and after the 2022 elections, they will.

And for anyone thinking Oh, all of their politicians are fruitcakes, it doesn't have to be a politician: billionaires are looking to jump in. Hell, The Rock is rumored to be interested.

To clarify, I mean his instincts with people. He's way to trusting of people and he's had zero experience with people openly trying to take him down. Being a billionaire with a lot of yes men is likely the root cause of that.

My dream ticket? DeSantis for President, Trump for VICE PRESIDENT.

Why? Simple fact is that Trump is old. He is in good health now, but older folks can decline very rapidly... its just a crap shoot at that age.

So, Desantis gets us past some of the Never Trumpers, and is younger, and you point Trump at specific issues... use him as a Hatchet Man, as he is already Hated anyway.

DeSantis was already a Congressman in DC where he was a member of the "extreme" conservative Freedom Caucus. You guys keep saying "Wait till he gets to DC, he'll show his true stripes." He already was in DC, he already showed his true stripes -- he was a very strong conservative.

Just think about how many figures, especially on the right , there have been in that last, I don't know, 100 years that have changed the political dynamic.

DeSantis is an heir of Trump.

I think you want video, but not as a deterrent. A hidden camera is best, because we need to hammer home just how deceptive the media is. Literally nothing can be believed.

Not sure what the legality is on that, though, and conservatives still have to worry about that even if the left does not.

However that likely gets colored by the people here that are always ready to throw Trump under the bus. They always claim all he talks about is the 2020 election. And they whine about it. And if you read yesterday's thread you can probably easily spot a few of them. And I doubt any of them are in here saying "guess I was wrong about that."

600 I struggle to find an issue that he had bad instincts on.

People. The President makes about 2500 appointments, most of which are not Senate-confirmed. Hillary, I am sure, has 2000 names and would have left some of the others for her senior people to bring in their people if they weren't already on Hillary's list. Trump had about 20. Not having his own people in place killed him. He fought through it heroically and got a lot more done than I thought he would, but people were a huge flaw.

I thought that, certainly no later than the convention, he would have started putting together two things: 1. A list of Day 1 Obama regulations to repeal, and 2. A list of 2500 people to appoint. He did neither. The next nominee can't make that mistake.

612 I fear that all the infighting between conservatives now over Trump vs Desantis may poison us to the point that people sit 2024 out and the left wins it.

I remember the moment DeSantis had a deer in the headlights look when he made a comment that was exploited by the media as racism. I remember thinking he would cave and oh no, not again. But since then he hasn't missed a step. Still, I fear he is still somewhat green in dealing with the media. But it seems he does not have the same naive trust that Trump places on his 'friends'. Maybe DeSantis faith allows him to see evil more keenly?

Trump truly angers me with some of his picks for congress which are truly unacceptable, and his poor staffing and dealings with the media in which he makes the same mistakes over and over.
