talkpoliticsOk, so WTF. Romney announced Ryan, wupeddee-do-da.
Curious, I am, as to how many of you heard Romney announce him as next President?
OK, harmless little flub.
Oddly enough, Obama made the same mistake with Biden in 2008.
That's a really REALLY odd mistake to make, IMO. You should be VERY aware of where you are, what you're saying and what you're doing when you are announcing your VP. But WHATEVER.
It's a silly small flub. What bothers the FUCK out of me is the following:
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7417814n
CBS has the video footage of Romney announcing VP. It has, as was, him saying "the next President, Paul Ryan!" and it says that he quickly corrected himself. Now that's fine. What is NOT fine is ABC. Fuck you ABC.
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/romney-names-paul-ryan-vp-nominee/story?id=16807200#.UCrAu1ZlREM
They went right ahead and edited the video so Romney is heard saying "the next vice-president, Paul Ryan!"
This sorta shit makes me lose faith in media.
That ABC clip looks and sounds pretty damn good. Now how the fuck do I know the next time I'm watching ABC they didn't alter the clip....
It's a lack of faith. And faith in the media is a must. But tis gone. And society shall crumble as a result.
Fuck you ABC.
I'm curious, when you first heard, did you hear about Romney's slip?
Why do you think he made it? Obama, my buddies tell me, may have made a Fruedian slip--subconsciously he assumed he'd get assassinated as first black president, and Biden would take over.
Doesn't make as much sense for Romney, so what gives?

Date: 15/8/12 14:44 (UTC)The flub is there.
This story still doesn't matter because the flub is not newsworthy except for a chuckle. What ABC did was leave it in the context of the entire speech so it doesn't "pop" out as more important than Mr. Romney having chosen his running mate.

Date: 14/8/12 21:38 (UTC)ABC alters the Romney clip to skip a meaningless slip.
Your time's better spent criticizing NBC.

Date: 14/8/12 21:49 (UTC)I still hold to the belief that Romney introduced Ryan that way because he believes he'll die in office.

Date: 15/8/12 00:14 (UTC)But yeah, the ABC edit is troubling. I'm sure they probably think it doesn't sway the meaning so it doesn't matter, but that seems like a curious journalism decision. The clip should show what happened, not what was intended to happen.

Date: 15/8/12 14:46 (UTC)The ABC video is of the entire introduction of Mr. Ryan, not just the flub.
The flub is there -- towards the end of Mr. Romney's speech at minute 7.
