MSNBC’s Witt Distorts Huckabee’s Comments, Then Essentially Blames the Victim | NewsBusters

MSNBC’s Witt Distorts Huckabee’s Comments, Then Essentially Blames the Victim | NewsBusters: "Notice that Witt didn’t refute the notion that the media have distorted Huckabee’s comments. She also didn’t mention, of course, that she herself had just distorted the comments by playing a truncated clip of the governor which gave viewers -- particularly those completely unaware of the context -- a rather distorted view. If Witt can tacitly acknowledge the media’s tendency to distort those comments, shouldn’t she be able to avoid distorting them herself? Instead of doing the responsible thing and playing the comments' full context, she blamed the former Republican presidential candidate for opening the door to the possibility that media members like her might distort his comments."
