OldBrownsFan Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 A behind-the-scenes video has shown CNN staff orchestrating a Muslim protest group condemning ISIS in the aftermath of Saturday night’s terror attack in London. Footage filmed close to London Bridge – where three knife-wielding terrorists killed seven people – captured CNN host Becky Anderson and her staff setting up a shot showing a small group of demonstrators. The video was recorded by Mark Antro, a Londoner who stopped by the assembled media teams and recorded what went on before they started their broadcast: It shows Anderson and other assembled camera crew members waving the group of around 15 people under a police cordon, and directing them to huddle together so they are all in shot at once. Anderson then uses them to introduce her segment, describing the gathering as “wonderful” and “poignant” while reading out hashtags from their placards. Viewers could be forgiven for not realizing the amount of effort which had just gone into recording the scene. Antro uploaded the footage to Twitter, which he described as #FakeNews”. He also accused CNN of constructing a “narrative”, promoting the assertion that terror attacks are an aberration which the majority of Muslims abhor and, by extension, have little to do with the faith itself. As the footage began to spread across social media, CNN’s PR team denied that they had “staged” the event, describing the claims as “nonsense” and saying they “simply filmed” what was happening anyway. https://heatst.com/world/video-cnn-orchestrates-muslims-against-isis-protest-in-london-terror-aftermath/ *Another case of when the liberal media wants to present a narrative they will do whatever it takes to present it.

The Cysko Kid Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 I get your point but at least they're trying, by hook or by crook, to get some Muslims to denounce terrorism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldBrownsFan Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 I get your point but at least they're trying, by hook or by crook, to get some Muslims to denounce terrorism. Others should be doing that though and not journalists who are supposed to only be reporting the news and not making the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBrownsFan Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 they are They are orchestrating the news and that is not their job nor should it ever be. They are supposed to report the news and that is their job. When they stage the news then they should at least tell the viewers they have staged it instead of trying to present it as anything else.
