FOX Caught Editing The O'Reilly/Donahue Transcript

[stewert]

Bill O'Reilly has claimed in the past that his show is never edited, it seems that he was lying about that too.

Here is the unedited version:

DONAHUE: You can't hurt her. She's already taken the biggest punch in the nose that a woman can take.

O'REILLY: How?!

DONAHUE: She lost a son.

O'REILLY: Oh. OK.

DONAHUE: She's lost a child.

--------

Now look at the edited version put out by FOX:

DONAHUE: You can't hurt her. She's already taken the biggest punch in the nose that a woman can take. She's lost a son.

O'REILLY: OK.

DONAHUE: She's lost a child.

I have the full unedited transcript on my website in the oreilly-sucks forum.

www.oreilly-sucks.com/

And FOX claims it was edited for clarity, yeah right, read this:

This is a partial transcript from "The O'Reilly Factor," September 23, 2005, that has been edited for clarity.

1. Too bad O'Loofah, the real transcript and video is being widely circulated

on the internets. Just more proof of what a liar you really are.

[Iris]

29. Don't you just love technology?

[FreedomAngel82]

40. As some would say...

thank Al Gore! ;)

[GrumpyGreg]

34. I've only been here 24 hours and I'm learning quite a bit---thanks!

O'Reilly is an ass! (I already knew that)

[bunny planet]

35. Welcome GrumpyGreg.

:-)

[GrumpyGreg]

43. Thanks

[FreedomAngel82]

41. Welcome newbie!

:hi:

[GrumpyGreg]

44. Thank you

[Atman]

2. Never edited? You must be joking! Did you see the Condi interview?

There were jump cuts all over the place in that one. It was so obviously edited it was almost difficult to watch...I mean, beyond the painful aspect of having O'Lielly and Condi on my teevee at the same time.

Fox just lies. Period.

[Supersedeas]

4. somewhere in the bowels of the Administration, Condi's historical document

looms

[Atman]

15. Somewhere in the bowels of Condi, Bush's head looms

Sssssory. Couldn't resist.

[MADem]

27. Somewhere in the bowels of Dildo Really....

a vibrator buzzes.....

[sasha031]

9. remember both O'Leiily and Krugamn on Meet the Press

It was a disgrace, O'Leilly was totally irrational and obnoxious. Krugman though nervous tried to present the facts as always. Russet sat there and didn't know what to do. The whole thing was awful.

Saw it on his show a day later, he had edited it to make himself out to be a hero, the man is absolutely insane.

[Atman]

14. I really do believe he is insane

The "I'll boot you off this show!" remarks to Donohue only confirmed that. What a powermad, delusional fuckwad that man is!

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

46. My easy technique to win a debate with O'Reilly each and every time

I wish all future guests would do this when he gets to the obnoxious foaming at the mouth stage he so easily gets to when he is being bested by the facts - which is 99.9% of the time:

Imagine Donahue or Krugman or Bill Maher or anyone just pausing, looking steadily at him and saying slowly and clearly -

FALAFEL.

I don't think he would reply - I think he would explode on camera.If he doesn't, say it again, louder. FALAFEL

[Imagevision]

39. Wonder how much O'reily paid for the phone-sex problem to go away??

The lady in question did have copies of the phone-sex tapes between Bill and her and Fox and Bill figured, even at 25-35 million before Bush's election was still cheap -- if it was dragged everyday out in the courts FOX and Bill would have lost more.

[Roachman]

3. HOw did you figure this out?

Where does the unedited version come from?

[ET Awful]

5. The video clip is widely available. The unedited version is correct. n/t

[stewert]

7. Everywhere.......

The transcript is from nexus and NewsHounds, everyone has it. I got mine from newshounds, but I have also seen the nexus transcript. The only one that was edited is the one FOX put out.

You can also watch the video and hear it for yourself at crooksandliars.com.

[Roachman]

13. Well, Bravo, then! n/t

[Sydnie]

6. "Outfoxed" by TIVO -- don't they know about TIVO?

They can't spin what he said because it is on record. They can cleanse the transcript all they want, but the truth is out there. They need to fire him now because there is not enough damage control left for loofah boy.

[Mr_Spock]

8. Amazing, and my FUCKING credit union has this station on THREE TV's

I fucking HATE Faux "News" - they need to be eliminated NOW!

[Ron Green]

17. Time for you, as a Depositor, to demand some "balance."

:P

[Mr_Spock]

18. I did. I DEMANDED an equal division on the TV's news coverage

We'll see what happens - I plan on nagging them and getting others to also put pressure on them in the coming weeks.

[stewert]

20. One Problem.......

CNN and MSNBC are just FOX 2 and FOX 3.........None of them are truly fair and balanced, but it would be a win if you could get them to put CNN or MSNBC or both on the other tv sets.

[klook]

26. Right-wingers believe

that CNN is the "liberal" alternative to Faux!! I have actually heard them say this! Of course they also believe Clinton is a "communist," John Roberts is a "moderate," George Bush is a "human," etc.

[Ron Green]

21. In truth, the only way to really BALANCE Faux News would be to

feature Free Speech Television.

[FreedomAngel82]

42. That would be nice

[jsamuel]

10. thanks for this!

[Lucille]

11. Send this information to mediamatters.org

From their website:

Send news tips about conservative misinformation to Media Matters here: [e-mail].

[stewert]

12. mm.org........

I already did.......

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

16. Do the fine folks at Fox...

...not know what "transcripts" are? Any alterations (and that includes omissions) and they're no longer transcripts---to represent them as such is tantamount to fraud.

[WiseButAngrySara]

24. It IS Fraud...not tantamount to fraud!...n/t

[sakabatou]

19. That's not editing

That's putting blinders on the audience... that already had blinders on...

[npincus]

22. Good for You! Those fucking propagandist whores.

[Gregorian]

23. Yes. That part made him look even more heartless than he is allowed.

When he asked that, I realized he isn't human. Or he's just really really really stupid.

But then I don't watch anything but The Daily Show. So it's all foreign to me.

[BuyingThyme]

25. Blood-thirsty slug.

[K8-EEE]

28. I noticed that too!

LYING LIARS!

[Garbo 2004]

31. Randi Rhodes played the audio and when I heard Bildo ask "How?"

I thought, oops there Billy...so wrapped up in making your point for the boobs at home you forgot a) that Cindy's son was killed in Iraq while serving in uniform and b) to feign compassion.

Seems like their edited transcript attempted to take care of that slip, but instead just underscores it since the video and audio is widely available.

Have a falafel Billy. And stock up on batteries. LOL

[Liberal In Texas]

32. "We Distort, You Abide" n/t

[nolabels]

33. Then some people wonder about other people...........

...On why others believe everthing they see and hear on the boob tube is fact :shrug:

Even NFL and college football with instant replay is getting bad lately

[lateo]

36. The transcript doesn't let you know the snearing tone O'Really used...

when he said what he said...

[Tower]

37. Don't worry. Fox fans can't read anyway.

[donheld]

38. Foxnews is about the lowest Media form in this country

People on DU were complaining about the National Enquirer. Fox make the National Enquirer look quite good.

[0007]

45. As I never watch FAUX, but did see the Donahue & O'Reilly

thingie from a poster that put up the video.

Thank you for watching those flakes and keeping them in line.

[StefanX]

47. "Edited for clarity" my ass

Edited for O'Reilly's stupidity, more like it.

What a bunch of losers and liars.
