    CNN's John King just began a question on how "some are trying to make a big deal over" Biden's "you're not black" comment. CNN then played the clip ending with “I extended the Voting Rights Act 25 years. I have a record that is second to none." However, the quote was edited...

        ...to exclude the next line: "The NAACP has endorsed me every time I’ve run. Come on, take a look at my record.” That is a false statement that the NAACP has publicly rebutted. https://jonathanturley.org/2020/05/23/technically-black-atlantic-columnist-supports-bidens-statement-that-black-trump-supporters-are-not-really-black/ … It never endorsed Biden or anyone else...

        ...thus, on such false statements, CNN is not making a "big deal about it." It is simply editing it out. Not a big deal. That is not one of the "facts first" stories. This is the type of media indulgence that I wrote about yesterday...https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/499283-why-joe-biden-can-do-no-wrong …

        After his work on the atomic bomb, scientist Robert Oppenheimer observed that "the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose." If commentators have known sin, it is in the abandonment of facts for a true faith. Facts first.https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/499283-why-joe-biden-can-do-no-wrong …

        CNN just replayed the same edited clip in another interview, preceded by a derisive comment about those "trying to make hay about this." In a story where Biden is proclaiming his support among black voters, CNN omitted the line where he falsely claims multiple NAACP endorsements.

        Well, if you hadn't noticed yet, CNN is a propaganda outlet for the Democratic Party.
