There's more than one way to lie when you're a "journalist". One is by saying things that aren't true. Another is by carefully omitting certain things that are true, so they will not be known.
These "journalists" were practicing the second method. They were coordinating their questions to ask about only certain "subjects": The ones that would make Romney look bad if he couldn't spot their ploy and fell for it (he didn't fall for it).
By doing this, they made sure few (or no) questions were asked about the actual events the press conference was actually about: Savages attacking our embassies and killing our ambassadors, possibly with the collusion of their national governments.
It's a very common practice among "journalists" whose agenda is to conceal information rather than reveal it.
Are one of you guys on here going to post a video of yourselves on a bed under the sheets screeching LEAVE ROMNEY ALONE. If you do than feel free to link it because that would just...be....AWESOME !
Will we see any posts from liberals in this thread?
I won't hold my breath. Liberals don't like to face the hard truth about the devious and hateful nature of the liberal sycophants in control of the bulk of the US media.
Thank God for Fox News and the internet to tackle the hypocrisy of the liberal media and who will expose this with hard evidence that cannot be refuted. The sole short term goal of the liberal media is to make sure Obama is re-elected and it is obvious they will sink to any level to attain that goal.
Does anyone think the upcoming presidential debates can possibly be structured to give the voters a fair shot at learning everything they need to make an informed choice?
Great post, and some good points.
Typical, would we really expect anything different. Devious, Deceitful, and Descipable in every way imaginable.
These sorts of actions are plain wrong, no matter who is doing them to who. The hypocrisy is astonishing and should be exposed, at all cost no matter who the media outlets are playing dirty politics.
At the point we are going in, i do not think the debates can be played on a level playing field, when you have these types of games being played, and to make one canndidate look bad, is deceitful, and i am appaled that some will go to this length, to make their candidate stand out.
Surprising, nope this is the type of people voting for Obama, at all cost, just get our guy back in, how we do it, is non important!
I read both of your right wing links. They both talk about the press corp coordinating to make sure they got their questions in. (And boy, from their discussion it's apparent that they're used to Romney routinely NOT answering them.) Again, what was omitted?
The tape in question is between two reporters collaborating how a question, a valid question, should be asked so that it is direct and to the point.
You claim that it is an attack to collaborate a question. Please provide to the jury a specific reasoning why you think reporters should not collaborate their questions, regardless of who the recipient of the question is, and how collaborating decent wording on a question is an attack.
Their question specifically dealt with Romney's initial statements on the attacks. Does he stand by it or regret the initial knee-jerk reaction done (and released) in poor taste?
What do you think they are trying to omit or hide?

Let me repost this from stan4. Very easy to understand and read....and not needing of ridiculous graphics just to try to deflect away from the truth.....but nice try.

(sigh)
You can lead a donkey to information. But you can't make him read......
Is the story a lie, bob? It seems you think so but then anything that doesn't lean left and exposes the media and their lefty buddies is not true for you. Throw out some proof that this story is a lie. Your attempt to deflect on this one was very sad.
And, the right is always bleating about how nobody can be trusted by FOX. What's the difference?
This isn't an MSM conspiracy folks (a phrase coined by FOX, which IS mainstream! Go figure that.) It's a couple of reporters who were smart enough to understand what Romney had done and were determined not to let him get away with it unchallenged.
That's what a free press does.
Do you remember that group of Jornolists that played their anti-Bush game a few years ago? If not listen to this and tell me that there were only a couple of them in on this "trick".
