Editing Biden

My mom and I talk about this frequently.  Apparently, as if I didn’t know. Fox News takes clips of Biden’s speaking out of context, and it really does appear that he’s losing his faculties.

Many of us have seen this digital manipulation ourselves.  Many years ago, CBS’s 60 Minutes did a hatchet-job on an organization I was associated with at the time.  They made the group’s spokesperson look like a complete fool.  The speaker was one of the most highly trained PR professionals on the planet, but when the editors got through with him, he sounded like Charles Manson.

I suppose I could point out the obvious: it would be a better world if we treated one another fairly, but that ain’t happening.
