Fox Affiliate Apologizes for Editing Innocent Protesters to Sound Like Bloodthirsty Cop Killers
Caught red-handed, an affiliate of the conservative news outlet apologizes for manipulating video to make protesters seem violent.

A Baltimore Fox station has apologized for what it calls “an honest misunderstanding.”

Gawker caught the broadcast Sunday, which cut a protester short, making her words difficult to understand. The actual chant was, “We won’t stop. We can’t stop. Till killer cops. Are in cell blocks.” But Fox45 reported that the woman, Tawanda Jones, leading the chant was saying, “We won’t stop. We can’t stop. So kill a cop!”

Below (at this link) videos of the unedited chant, the edited version and a follow-up interview with Jones.

1. The feedback loop accepts all phases

Even a negative wave has a positive harmonic. To outfox the Fox, one must know the desired frequency and modulation of the target path. Prediction means knowing what to say and when.

4. Mind if I ask - are you owed beer? Travel money?

13. Well, I am on the positive side of the equation

But I am not that person you mention. He or She seemed a bit detached from reality most of the time and besides, balancing life while in debt reduces the harmony.

2. This is a regular practice on TV news

They just rely on not getting caught and regular people not having the power to get them to do anything about it.

There needs to be some sort of monitoring organization that people can appeal to when they catch real whoppers.

5. This

I've seen it done on all three "news" networks for gross misrepresentation and manipulation. This is the first I've heard of any apologizing.

6. I was totally surprised by the apology

Seems totally out of character for FOX-heads

11. It wasn't a real apology. They claimed that it was an honest mistake, but what she

was saying was clear given the full context of the unedited video.

Whoever edited the tape did it with the intention of misrepresenting what was going on at the protest.

8. fuck this station

and the people that run it. And I see CNN and the rest of the MSM still haven't mentioned this story or retracted their stories/pieces based on this story/station's yellow journalism. But then I am not surprised in this day and time in amerikkka.

9. Apology not accepted

I want groveling.

10. FCC should take away their license, immediately.

In exchange for using the public's airwaves, FOX has an obligation to tell the truth.

12. "We are deeply sorry,

that some people watch our broadcasts and actually check our facts."

[99th_Monkey]

14. Yes, that's why they are "sorry".

that they got caught.
