Seems like they admitted malfeasance in the statement I copied. Also an online comment doesn’t constitute journalism so I think I’m in the clear there.
No, they didn’t. They admitted to doing what commonly happens with interviews and commented that most people simply don’t expect it. They didn’t admit malfeasance. YOU made that accusation, again, without evidence.
Also an online comment doesn’t constitute journalism so I think I’m in the clear there.
But claiming something that didn’t happen, without evidence - as you keep doing - while accusing another of the same thing is certainly both unethical and hypocritical.
And I certainly didn’t accuse you of journalism. I accused you of slander/libel.
Pretty clear breach of journalistic ethics, no?
Clear? No. Interviews are edited all the time.
It highly depends on exactly what was edited and how. And that’s not clear at all.
The problem is that they did it at the request of the interviewee. Clearly they see it as a problem.
No, that’s not a problem. The problem is implying malfeasance without any evidence.
That’s slander/libel.
Weren’t you just criticizing someone for their supposed lack of journalistic ethics? Don’t you see the clear hypocrisy in that?
Easy guide for you to remember the difference:
Slander is Spoken
&
Libel is Literary
I said “slander/libel” to avoid confusion, not because I didn’t know the difference. But thanks for the clarification. 👍

Here come the downvotes. If it were Trump it would be front page news already, lol. And now everyone wants to act like this is normal
It frequently happened and happens with Trump. And nobody cares.
