Which I did, which you kept questioning on Friday as if I would not tell the truth and in which kept leaving out the part about the shifted frames and claiming I said there was no difference, implying I was being dishonest. Heck you just did the very same thing in your post today, leaving out the parts of my post that didn't fit with your dishonest narrative. You have no integrity or honor Charles.

    I am done arguing this with you Charles. You have shown your own dishonesty in this thread for all to see. There is nothing more to be said.
    I never said you were dishonest. You were too quick to conclude that the video had not been edited and that the error was in the side by side video. I don't think it is fair for you to suggest I owe you an apology for a claim I did not make.

      You implied it over and over as I showed above. All the while you were being the one who is dishonest. I hope you are proud of yourself.

        Charles is one of the most accomplished trolls I've ever encountered. He's quite good at implying something while pretending otherwise.

          I figured he would respond as such, I just wanted to give him a chance to prove me wrong. At least now maybe others like Ox will see him for who he is.

            I think this could end up with Trump banning CNN completely.
            Even if they could legally sue the government, this case is without merit. Like it or not, access to the White House press pool is a privilege and not a right, and since CNN is free to continue publishing whatever lies it wants, there is no violation of the First Amendment.

              Sparko this is getting a litte too much. Here is what you wrote back then:

I will open it back up and check again on Monday when I get back to my computer system.

              But if there is a missing frame it is because of the frame rate difference in the two videos as I mention above. Not because of "doctoring"
              What I pointed to was of course that you pointed out even before giving it a second look that: "But if there is a missing frame it is because of the frame rate difference in the two videos as I mention above. Not because of "doctoring"" That is what we call concluding beforehand. That is not what an expert does. I never claimed it was dishonest but I pointed out it was not an expert thing to do. So, once again, I never did claim you were dishonest. Why the need to ask me for all kinds of excuses for things I never did say? I took you by your word but it seems you don't want to be held accountable or admit you were wrong.

                • Celebrated (and overrated?) journalist Bob Woodward says that today's media is emotionally unhinged, and that CNN's response to Accost-her losing his credentials should not be a lawsuit but simply better reporting.

                    • Like I said, better reporting, which would naturally include an unbiased assessment of the Trump administration and not simply one negative hit-piece after another.

                      Although you make an interesting point, that Woodward is, perhaps, calling for even more negative bias instead of even handedness. I hadn't considered that interpretation.

                          Considering that he's comnenting specifically about the CNN lawsuit, it's most likely that he was thinking of CNN.

                            So his point seems to be that following the facts is the remedy. I completely agree.

                              Chuck, your weaseling is noted.

                              And there were no missing frames. Just one that was duplicated twice. Several of the news sources were claiming that the infowars guy deleted a frame or two to make it look like Acosta's hand moved faster than it did. But that was not the case at all. There were no missing frames. Just a duplicated one. And as I mentioned in my analysis, I found the original C-span video and it had the same frame rate as the infowars one. The copy I previously downloaded from youtube was at 24 fps which is why I theorized the frame rate conversion could have caused glitches. To try to be as accurate as possible, I went and found the original source. And I admitted that in my analysis.

                              I have been doing video editing professionally for over 15 years now. You questioning my expertise is as bad as your questioning my integrity. Not that you have any expertise on the technology at all.

                              So weasel away Chuck. You have shown your true colors once again.
