WAWAGate - How I Exposed MSNBC's Video Edit Smear
It's been a few days, and the news cycle has moved on to much more important things, like Eric Holder, the abuse of executive privilege, and the countdown to the Supreme Court decision on BigPHARMAcare and Arizona.
However, before all that steamrolled over my 15 minutes of fame, this happened:
For anyone who missed it, MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell aired a very deceptively edited video that smeared Mitt Romney. My spidey sense perked up while watching it, and after finding an unedited version of the event, I unraveled the deception, much to the glee of the right wing blogosphere. Eventually the story was picked up by Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Fox News. Andrea Mitchell was forced to address the deception, but offered no apology.
I thought I would share my moment in the sunshine with you fair readers at Ricochet. I hope you don't mind the bragging. [more bragging here!]

Her failure to apologize, while playing the rest of the tape, tells you everything...about how much this hurt Andrea and MSNBC. We need to keep at 'em for another 5 months. Good on ya.

Congratulations sir. I spent an unsuccessful morning trying to persuade someone at FoxNews that it was really PseudoMexican who should get the credit for the story.
I'm still waiting for the call back.

Listen, if you get the job, you're gonna need a minion. I'm not saying I'm cheap, but I am competitively priced.

Well done, Soop! I caught your tweets live. Much fun.
Re: WAWAGate - How I Exposed MSNBC's Video Edit Smear
Sooper,
I cringed when Sean Hannity said "we have uncovered...". He has taken my work word for word on the air in the past without citing me.
Thank goodness Dana Parino gave you the props you deserve.
EXCELLENT JOB, SOOPER!
