They played the clip of Michelle Obama that was edited on MSNBC

[Nitrogenica]

They removed her use of the word "really".

It's sickening.

For the first time in my life I'm REALLY proud of my country is what she said.

WHY on earth would MSNBC play a doctored clip.

This suttle diference changes her statement. Why LIE to the American people about this.

We should be crawling all over the "clip edit" story. I suggest some pointed letters to Hardball for starters.

1. Are you sure?

There are two videos. I noticed yesterday they started using the one where she doesn't say "really".

[thepurpose]

5. There are two videos or is there one that has been edited?

[MonkeyFunk]

18. Two separate videos

from two different speeches in two different cities.

6. I'm sure. I've been waiting to hear their clip since I heard

about this listening to Thom Hartmann.

What are we going to do about this! It's OUTRAGEOUS.

THIS is what we're in for this fall no matter who the Democratic candidate is.

LIES LIES LIES, HALF-TRUTHS AND DISGUSTING SPIN

8. are there two...

...because she's wearing the same outfit as the one they used on msnbc.

if they (nbc) edited, or received edited, footage - this (the unedited version) should be e-mailed to them. Keith would play it.

I'm just not savy enough to get it to him - anyone?

[MonkeyFunk]

19. Yes there are two

2. I noticed that too. Unacceptable.

:grr:

[thepurpose]

3. This is at least the 2nd time they pulled this shit isn't it? WTF.

[monmouth]

4. Thom Hartmann had a caller today who had the un-edited version.

MSM is becoming dangerous. Who did the edit, Fox or MSNBC??

[jasmine621]

7. Another lie by an Obama supporter. I heard Michelle live on the radio

and she said the statement just as reported. There was no editing. She later gave the same speech later the same day but this time injected the word "really" No doubt because she had already been made aware of the flack that she had started. To suggest that the media edited her statement is just a plain untruth.

[Nitrogenica]

11. I heard a clip on Thom Hartmann that was definately edited.

Maybe you should send Thom an e-mail if you think I'm making up bullshit.

12. calling another DU member a Liar isn't kosher here

And worse it shows that you don't consider that the poster is operating under
the best intentions.

If YOU are right about the information you claim, you will win over more agreement
if you don't launch an attack on other DU members.

People are tired of the politics of attack attack attack.

[Windy]

13. You are a sad excuse... this is ridiculous with you. Are you that damn desparate that you have to

perpetuate a right wing smear?


and even if the doctored version was what was said, it was taken out of contest.

Her comment clearly related to the number of people who are coming out to work for her husband, who support him and who desparately want change in this country.

15. It is in their blood now, you can't help them,save yourself

[Prefer]

17. Watch for yourself

http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=49244

That clip is undeniably edited to remove the word really.

[nonconformist]

9. There are two... one where she just says "proud" and one where she says "really proud"

Here ya go:

[Nitrogenica]

14. Wow, so someone edited the second clip, and that's what Thom had.

OK makes sense. I'm sure Media Matters can sort out this utter mess.

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

10. join me in contacting Media Matters, maybe they will act upon it

I went to Media Matters website and used their contact form to send them a message about this

http://mediamatters.org/contact_us

Dear Media Matters:

MSNBC doctored the video of Michelle Obama talking about how she was really proud of her country for the first time....

They removed her use of the ord "really".

It's sickening.

Chris Mathews is out of control, completely. He tries to make news, not report or comment on it.

16. I already did earlier today and contacted CNN directly I noticed that they made sure to put "really"

in their reporting this evening...
