MSNBC purposefully edits video to push racism story

This is perhaps one of the most egregious examples of the mainstream media purposefully trying to push a biased, political slant that I have had the misfortune of seeing.

Watch the MSNBC video and see how the person carrying the AR-15 is depicted and then listen to the discussion afterward. It is clear that Contessa Brewer and her cronies in the video are trying to push the notion that angry, racist, whites are carrying firearms to townhall meetings. They openly state their belief that the white racists are angry that we have an African-American President and that one of them is likely to try and do something dangerous and potentially harmful to the President.

After watching the MSNBC video, there is no mistaking their intention. They are attempting to make the person with the AR-15 out to be an angry white racist. They are trying to imply that he is someone who needs to be feared and that police and secret service need to watch for the inevitable race-motivated crime against our president.

However, this video below adds a twist to the situation that MSNBC has (purposefully) omitted. Check it out yourself and then see if MSNBC needs to rethink their editorial slant.

You can agree or disagree with this 4409 group (whoever they are or whatever they are trying to accomplish), but there is no getting around the fact that MSNBC purposefully edited this video to conceal the color of “Chris’” skin. A 10-second trip to Google will provide several videos of this person (with his head and hands intact). However, the color of this gentleman’s skin didn’t fit with the ‘white racist anger’ narrative that Contessa Brewer and the rest of the MSNBC staff were trying to spin. So they simply edited it out.

Update: Via HotAir, MSNBC is spinning their creative editing and “reporting” as

“Contessa was speaking generally and not about that specific person with the automatic weapon.”

Right … that’s why they felt the need to purposefully edit the video to cut out the color of this gentleman’s skin???

In response, Americans for Limited Government are calling for Brewer and everyone related to the gun-toting, white racists story to be fired.
