CNN Proves Yet Again They Are Fake News, by American Liberty Report 6/15/17
Recently, we did a recount of the
top ten most blatant, most brazen examples of CNN broadcasting outright
falsehoods, interviewing members of their own crews as they pretend to be
members of a crowd, and fully staging mock-ups of bogus scenarios.
Well, the most trusted name in news
broadcasting has once again been caught red-handed staging more fake news. This
time, it comes in the wake of a terrorist attack. We’ve seen footage from a
cell phone camera filming the staging area for a fake protest scene after the
recent terrorist attacks in London.
In those attacks, 7 people were
killed and 48 people were injured. ISIS later claimed responsibility for the
violence. ISIS supporters openly celebrated the attacks and at around that same
time, the CNN propaganda machine was caught setting up a phony protest pushing
their “religion of peace” narrative.
In a brief piece of footage, we
see a small stage erected in a London street taped off, guarded by police,
surrounded by a stationary film crew and electrical equipment as they prepare
to film a protest of the violence by Muslims. It’s worth noting that the camera
equipment and setup is not that of a mobile news crew. There are heavy studio
lights, electrical generators, and studio cameras.
The protesters are trotted out
calmly from behind the film crew staging area. They are not happened upon by a
roving news crew- they are the crew. They form up and raise their signs
dispassionately as the CNN “reporter” calmly looks on and reviews her talking
points. She opens her bogus report saying, ‘Reporting live to you now from a
beautiful scene…’ As she drones on, someone near to the camera can be heard
laughing, joking, and saying “This is embarrassing.”
After CNN was caught and called out
by members of the alternative and independent press, they responded by saying
that the protesters were on the scene before the crews show up with all their
heavy equipment and the team let the protesters come through to the filming
area. In order for that to be the case, CNN’s huge crew with all its massive
equipment would have had to come upon these grieving protesters who then calmly
reposition themselves in the area where CNN set up its cameras.
This is clear nonsense. Large groups
of spontaneous protesters do not set down their signs, sit down, and be quiet
while drinking coffee and eating donuts as a news crew reformats the protest
scene. It is obvious that the so called protesters are actors- and there are at
least 20 of them.
In the video, we can see that the
fake protesters are being stage managed, shown where to stand, where to face,
and where to point their signs. They had to be helped to arrange themselves in
such a way that all of them could be seen- so that all the turbans and heart
shaped “ISIS will lose” signs could be filmed clearly. In the scene, you can
clearly see a crewman wearing headphones directing the protesters, showing them
where to stand and which direction to face.
The video was taken by a bystander,
uploaded to Twitter and was then discovered by independent journalist and
lawyer, Mike Cernovich before it went viral.
It is a direct violation of
well-established journalistic ethics for journalists to have any involvement in
the staging of news photographs. That is to say giving any direction to the
subjects of a news report on how to present themselves is directly in violation
of the standards that news reporters are expected to uphold.
Journalists are not meant to use
stagecraft, or any of the techniques of filmmaking when they present their
subjects. They are meant to turn the camera on, point it at the object of
concern and report.
Of course, we know that CNN has been
in the business of staging the news for a very long time and journalistic
ethics have not been very near to their hearts in recent memory. But it is
important not to let this kind of deception go on unchallenged- especially when
it is being done to convince us that the people who want to kill us, destroy
our culture, and obliterate everything that we hold dear are not our enemy.
Western nations are being
conditioned to accept enemy combatants into their borders. We are being told
that the enemy at the gate is a friend- and we are being told this by the most
trusted name in broadcast news. Check out the obviously faked “news”
report by CNN below.
