Fox News deceptively edits Al Sharpton’s anti-violence speech to include chant for ‘dead cops’
The Fox News morning show Fox & Friends edited a video clip of Rev. Al Sharpton to make it seem that demonstrators had chanted calls to kill police officers during his speech on Saturday, even though the two pieces of video were from two different cities.
“In Washington, the rally was held by the Rev. Al Sharpton, host of MSNBC program — and there he is,” Fox News host Tucker Carlson as video of Sharpton’s Saturday speech played. “Sharpton got up and explained, ‘We’re not against the police.’ This was his claim, listen.”
At that point, Fox News showed a clip from a protest later that evening in Manhattan.
“What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” the protesters reportedly shouted.
The video then flipped back to Sharpton: “We’re not saying all police are bad. We’re not even saying most are bad. We’re not anti-police, but we’re anti-brutality. And the federal government must have a threshold to protect that.”
Literally all of media manipulates the truth to make you believe their truth. They put out images of races, genders, countries etc so you feel a certain way about it. Imagine if there was a crime and the media didn't tell you the race of who committed the crimes? People would be less likely to think all blacks are criminals or all white people are racist etc. But they want to further their agenda so you will disproportionately see what they want you to believe

I know this BUT, it's one thing to post an exaggerated title based on FACT and another to TAMPER with the factual evidence you're presenting in your news broadcast!
Sneeking one's biased opinion into an article doesn't compare to literally CHANGING the story completely and presenting it as FACT and hoping no one notices - at the expense of those whose character is compromised (the protestors in the video and Al Sharpton).
Of course they are still saying race is not the issue. Its not an issue when it's black people being killed, but let little Becky get 6 bullets in her back and Fox News will be singing another tune.
