Why would West point Graduates applaude a Foreign born Socialist leader? It makes no sense to the People at Fox news.

I am not even shocked by FOX any more. Just amused.

next headline is going to be "Glen Beck, Sean Hannity, and Bill O'Reilly discovered by FBI to be a domestic terrorist group with plot to assassinate president" and I'd be like "No suprise there"

Maybe fox is showing the original version and everyone else is adding in claps. Yeah 8)

That's almost comical. Perhaps the applause acoustics were interfering with Obama's teleprompter and that cancelled out the sound waves?

Is this really any different than airbrushing supermodels on magazine covers, or women wearing make-up? It's an attempt to alter reality in order to push an agenda. Happens all the time. Get over it. Move on and complain about something relevant.FragStains

.. Except the examples you used are there to promote products and what not..

So it's not possible they took it out so he was easier to hear in the video? And how about a real source instead of Youtube before GS embarks on another FN bashfest.

No it doesn't, Fox News promotes a claimed "Fair and Balanced" in being objective..

[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] I'd put it under the category of "possible but not very likely". After all, never had to do that in the past. Unless we assume that the applause was so overwhelmingly loud for Obama that it was somehow different from the applause other presidents in the past? More specifically, presidents usually stop talking during the applause parts to let it die down before continuing. nocoolnamejim

[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"][QUOTE="Pirate700"]So the TC posts a random Youtube video that could have been created by anyone, of an Obama speech where the applause was taken out for unknown reasons, and this is a big deal? Don't the Fox News rants ever get old here?

Pirate700

But this is from a news organization that claims they are the most objective in upholding a "Fair and Balanced" view of politics and news.

Those are old too, but we can't control who the current president is. You can control what you watch. If clearing up background noise if a big deal to one, just don't watch the network. Be an adult, get over it, and watch something else.

[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] You honestly think this is something that is unlikely to be true? Seriously? As for rants, shall we talk about the Obama rants not getting old here? :PsSubZerOo

[QUOTE="nocoolnamejim"] Ah come on now! If MSNBC had done this to Bush we'd have two dozen threads about "teh liberal bias!" of the media within about ten minutes. Conservative posters would be screaming about conspiracies in the media. This sort of tampering is wrong no matter who does it. It's PARTICULARLY wrong by a media outfit trying to claim to be fair and balanced.nocoolnamejim

It shouldn't be a big deal. They cleaned up the applause. If anything that's good for Obama's speech as you can hear it clearer. It's not like FN made his speech are garbled or muffled. They made his speech clearer.

Pirate700

yeah they were clearly making it easier to hear obama that's why they left in the 10 second pause where the applause was...

And there is a reason that there is FN hate because they are the most biased of any news network and rarely report anything on how it actually happened it almost always has some over the top spin. I mean do you watch Glenn Beck, O'reily and actually think they aren't complete idiots???

They made his speech clearer. I do understand where you're coming from, but IMO this is looking for something to bash FN about. Just like the posters here that bash FN article that were written by the AP or other news networks. The blind hate on this forum for FN is completely out of control.

[QUOTE="xaos"] Wow, Pirate, you seriously are asserting that they did it to make it easier to hear him? :o I'm sorry, but editing raw video is beyond the pale, and I'd be every bit as put off if some purportedly "liberal" news outlet had done this. This is flat out bad journalism; I can't even call it journalism.xaos

yeah that sounds like a Fox News excuse, we were making sure everyone could hear the president over the wondrous applause he was getting

it just looks like bad editing however you try to spin it. if their reason was simply to make the audio better or not use the cut to the cadets applauding imo it was poorly done. there's even a glitch in the video when the edit was over. comp_atkins
