In yet another example of the mainstream media manipulating facts, MSNBC has been caught deceptively editing a video clip of podcast host Joe Rogan. The edited clip falsely implied Rogan was praising Vice President Kamala Harris, when in reality, he was speaking about former Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard. Rogan didn’t hold back in expressing his outrage over the misleading edit.
“This is what MSNBC did, ”Rogan explained while speaking with Andrew Huberman on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience.
“They took a clip of me talking about Tulsi Gabbard, and they edited it up and made it look like I was saying great things about Kamala Harris.”
Rogan’s Real Praise Was for Tulsi Gabbard
The original context of Rogan’s conversation centered around Gabbard’s impressive career. He highlighted her eight years serving as a congresswoman and her two overseas deployments, where she provided medical care to injured soldiers. Rogan’s admiration for Gabbard’s accomplishments was unmistakable.
“They just deceptively edited the things that I was saying, took it completely out of context,” Rogan continued. “First of all, I was talking about Tulsi Gabbard, and then I was talking about the media behind Kamala Harris, all this surge, and all these people just deciding that she’s good, she could win, and they put the two of those together and made it seem like I was praising Kamala Harris.”
The Media’s Distortion of Truth
Rogan didn’t stop there, calling out MSNBC for their blatant disregard for journalistic integrity. He pointed out the growing trend of media outlets pushing misleading narratives to sway public perception.
“They don’t care about the truth. They just want a narrative to get out there amongst enough people, ‘cause most people are just surface readers,” Rogan remarked, emphasizing how media manipulation often goes unnoticed by casual viewers.
Dave Rubin Weighs In: “Evil Clickbait”
Dave Rubin, host of The Rubin Report, was quick to add his take on the situation. Speaking with Sage Steele, he didn’t mince words in describing MSNBC’s actions.
“Evil, that’s the word, and you got to admire what they do,” Rubin said.“Do they think they’re going to get away with it?”
His frustration with the media’s tactics was clear, as he highlighted the repetitive nature of such misleading strategies.
“But the answer I guess ultimately is yes, because they keep doing it, and they still get a certain amount of people to follow,” Rubin stated.
“Maybe their whole game is like ‘Oh, Rogan’s going to call on us, more people are going to watch our show. That’s just the nature of the clickbait evil.”
The Bigger Picture
This incident serves as a reminder of how mainstream media outlets, like MSNBC, sometimes distort the truth to fit their narrative. As Rogan and Rubin pointed out, such manipulations damage public trust in the media and contribute to the growing divide between Americans and the truth. It’s a stark reminder that viewers must stay vigilant and question the authenticity of what they see and hear.
