Here's something very suspicios 'Watters' World' - The Colbert Report - Video Clip | Comedy Central check out when Watters is holding up pictures of people like Biden and Putin and asking these supposedly stupid kids "who is this" The question and the answer are always on different takes. So for all we know he could have actually held up a picture of Albert Einstein but left that part out
Later on in the video there's a segment where a guy from the Colbert Report goes to the same place and shows the exact same pictures and you'll notice there that there aren't any cut aways. The questions and the answers are on the same take

Okay let's say you're absolutely right. The sequences are completely doctored and phony.
Now what? You have made no point. What would the significance be? Do you somehow imagine you are discrediting Fox News because they altered the video on a comedy sequence of one of their opinion shows? If so, that's actually a point in Fox News' favor that these are the ridiculous lengths that people have to go to in order to find Fox News' infamous "lies". If not, I don't see what your point is.

It's not a comedy sequence. It's a ha ha look at how stupid these liberals are sequence. That's the entire point of the segment. And why the editing? Why do they do a cut between the question and the answer?
Why does this have to be about liberals? Maybe this is more about how dumb young college students are. There are no cut aways when he asks about the unemployment rate and she answers 99%. They do this all the time, have you seen the Texas Tech segment, no pictures, just questions that all college students should know. They can't tell you who won the civil war, but they can tell you answers to all pop culture questions.

These things are always heavily and deceptively edited for the intended audience. They have to be in order for the dummies who think it's real to feel better about themselves. Some folks have a deep need to be able to look down on someone. These "man on the street interviews" feed that desire.
