Why CBS Is Not Publishing The 4th Part Of The Democratic Debate

The Fascist Oligarchy is in over-drive trying protect itself. Democracy will not survive without a "Political Revolution"

http://www.youngprogressivevoices.com/2015/11/16/cbs-not-publishing-4th-part-democratic-debate/

John Dickerson hosted the second Democratic National Debate on November 14, in Iowa, where the candidates talked about numerous issues, starting with the recent Paris attack and ending with crises management.

That’s not what’s interesting, though. What is interesting is that CBS has chosen to publish every part of the debate on their Youtube page except part 4.

Why is that you ask? Well, this was the part that dealt with Wall Street, but more importantly, featured Sanders finally going on the offensive (that’s actually over exaggerating it). Sanders questioned why Wall Street would donate to Clinton’s campaign if they didn’t intend to get something out of it. Clinton had to fumble for a response, talking about she did have a lot of small campaign contributions and that she helped New York after 9/11.

Of course, none of these had anything to do with Sanders comment and were obvious deflections, but the fact that CBS refused to publish this on their main Youtube page is telling about the bias they have towards Hillary and against Sanders.

Still, it is worrying that CBS would refuse to carry that on their Youtube channel, while the other parts are offered without issue. It shows a terrible bias.

A candidate that needs THAT much help to win a primary doesn't inspire my confidence at all. She is a follower, not a leader.

"A candidate that needs THAT much help to win a primary doesn't inspire my confidence at all. She is a follower, not a leader."

There is only one way to take that. You think the Clinton campaign, working with CBS, had them pull it for a couple of hours. I truly couldn't make this up on my worst of days.

"for the first few hours"

The goal posts are quickly moving.

And I'm usually pretty good at that sort of thing. Especially after I had spent the time watching parts 1, 2, and 3. No part 4 when I looked, but 5 and 6 were there.

But I guess I didn't look hard enough since as sufro pointed out, there are comments from yesterday.

Still though, I apparently was not the only one with this issue, since the OP's article's author seems to have had trouble too.

Here is my post in the Bernie group asking if anyone knew where I could find the full debate. http://www.democraticunderground.com/128074109#post37

Pu-leez

It was unavailable to that poster at the time because they couldn't find it!

But they easily found all the other parts.

Why is that? That's all this is about. It's not an unreasonable question.

Perhaps it was being viewed so much more than the others at the time...or something...

Anyway, now that it is up.... why are you going on about word definitions?

This is not difficult. Nor are the questions and confusion nefarious.

"Fascist oligarchy?"

Please.

This is just some embarrassing shit. Who wants to associate themselves with these whining, lying lunatics?

Are these Republican trolls at this "Young Progressive Voices" webpage, trying to make the left look bad? Because if they are, they're doing a bang-up job of it....

Mon Nov 16, 2015, 06:25 PM
Nov 2015

It is strange to me that Part 4 was the only part of the debate to be held back from the initial debate posting. It was also the section of the debate where Hillary took the most criticism. Could it have been an accident that it wasn't posted with the initial batch? Sure. Coincidences do happen. I'm not sure I'm willing to give the benefit of he doubt.

Below is a summary of the videos as released on CBSN with date released and hit count:

Dem Debate Part 1: Candidates address Paris attacks, ISIS (Uploaded on Nov. 14th) (Views: 43,520)
Dem Debate Part 2 - Candidates spar on the economy (Uploaded on Nov. 14th) (Views: 20,368)
Dem Debate Part 3 - Candidates lay out vision for domestic agenda (Uploaded on Nov. 14th) (Views: 20,082)
Dem Debate Part 4 - Heated exchanges over Wall Street, gun control (Uploaded on Nov. 16th) (Views: 236)
Dem Debate Part 5 - Race, Clinton's emails, Sanders' electability (Uploaded on Nov. 14th) (Views: 17,506)
Dem Debate Part 6 - Crisis management and closing statements (Uploaded on Nov. 14th) (Views: 12,157)

Withholding Part 4 by two days has managed to reduce visibility on the 9/11-Wallstreet connection by ~20,000 viewers. It's not much in the grand scheme of things, but it is weird.

Why was the video not put up with the others initially on Nov. 14th?

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Totally false "conspiracy theory" (the FULL transcript was published minutes after the debate ended) and "Fascist Oligarchy"? Do we really need inflammatory insults on this site to go along with blatant lies?

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Nov 16, 2015, 04:37 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I haven't got eleven kids - I weren't born in Baghdad - I'm not half-Chinese either And I didn't kill my dad
It's not true, it's not true I'm telling you - 'Cause I'm up here and you're nowhere - It's not true, so there
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Gosh, alerter, could you not have offered this information as a rebuttal? We do have a tin foil emoticon for posts such as this, if it were indeed CT. Just doesn't qualify as CT for me. (Besides, Hillary did fumble her response about her Wall Street "obligations.&quot
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's a little late to hide it. On the positive side there's 40 posts making the OP look ridiculous.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: We do have a propaganda debunking forum so if this is a lie-a lie out there in the public domain, let DU discuss and debunk it.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
