US House speaker blasts CBS for ‘selectively editing’ interviewMike Johnson has accused the network of gutting his answers on ‘Face the Nation’
Speaker of the US House of Representatives Mike Johnson has accused CBS of selectively editing his interview to change the context of what he said, posting the original footage on social media as proof.
While cutting pre-taped interviews for time is a standard practice, altering the content and context of the quoted statements is considered journalistic malpractice. Johnson claimed that CBS did just that to his appearance on Sunday’s episode of ‘Face the Nation’.
