What a surprise......the MSM is once again caught editing somebody's words to fit the "white redneck racist" narrative and to discredit Bundy so that he will lose public support. PUSH BACK and post this on your social media sites-



Truth in Media: Cliven Bundy’s “Racist” Remarks Were Also Promoting Hispanic Culture? What MSM Isn’t Telling You

Bundy's Black Bodyguard: 'I Would Take A Bullet For That Man' (VIDEO)

Thuggish government not such a big problem now that Cliven Bundy is a racist

The race-baiting media loves nothing more than to get salt-of-the-earth type folks talking about the good old days in order to catch them making so-called racist comments. "Negro" is an old-fashioned word that was not considered racist when this man was growing up. By now people should expect the media to pull these kinds of tricks on people who are not savvy about dealing with today's media.

Bush was mocked for it when he first said it but in the end, he was right about "gotcha journalism".

Of course, CNN doctored the video of Bundy, apparently trying to show him as a racist when he wasn't. And it's working. Even conservatives who have seen only CNN's version, are blasting the guy. And if I had seen only what CNN carefully showed, I'd be blasting him too.

But in the full video, Bundy talks for several minutes about how black people were hard workers, decent people with strong families, etc. Even back in the slave days, when they were making useful contributions despite the horrible oppression they were enduring ("picking cotton"), they showed fine qualities and had nothing to be ashamed of. Bundy said the same was true for Mexican people, too.

But today, when the government is giving them tons of free stuff in the guise of "helping" them, Bundy said you can find black people sitting around doing nothing, winding up in jail, etc. - a major contrast to when they had to fight for their own interests under dreadful conditions and displayed stellar character.

CNN cut off the first part and showed only the second, in an apparent attempt to pretend Cliven Bundy was a racist when he clearly wasn't. It was a typical liberal response for which CNN has perfected the technique: If you can't refute what a man is saying, doctor it and try to smear him personally, instead.

The hoax has since been revealed, but the liberals, true to form, keep forwarding the lie as hard and fast as they can... joined by the usual liars and smear artists in this thread. The truth doesn't suit their agenda, so they shun it.

See the real, original video here, along with CNN's carefully doctored version:

Bundy Hoax Exposed: Full Video Of Cliven Bundy?s Non-Racist, Pro-Black, Pro-Mexican, Anti-Government Remarks | Alternative

If Cliven Bundy were the least bit racist, he could have used the most common perjorative of them all, the N-word. Then CNN wouldn't have had to go to the effort to doctor his video. But he never touched it. So they went to Plan B instead and tried to alter what he said, and smear him.

I figured there was a reason none on the left touched this when the story first broke. I wonder how they knew that what was said was edited before the rest of us did.
At any rate, Colbert is trying to make a joke about it so I'll take that to mean that the left has officially given up trying to make a serious issue out of it. Now I wonder if Bundy will also let it go ( the smart thing to do) or if he'll try to sue them over it. The New York Times, LOL. Not exactly The National Enquirer so they have to be given a little more scrutiny, I suppose.

It does not matter to the left.....hell, even after the media revealed the martin case audio was completely 100% falsified, what happened....the left flocked around a KNOWN lie....

Why would anything else be expected from he left?

Hopefully Mr. Bundy can get a nice settlement from CNN when he sues them for slander. This was no accident, it was a deliberate, vindictive attempt to harm someone's reputation. CNN once was a respectable new agency, I remember watching Gulf War I coverage and it was world class. They have fallen to a 2nd rate blogger. Race to the bottom...along with NBC.

Really? You think the first part of that video exonerates Bundy from his racist remarks? Do you think blacks wonder if they would be better off as slaves?
