It’s not about deception, it’s about time and focus. If we aired every word from every politician, no one would tune in. The real problem is the way this has been blown out of proportion. We’re living in an era where media literacy is critical, and people need to understand that editing isn’t inherently wrong. Let’s focus on policy discussions, not gotcha moments.
Here are the top political news stories for today.

Let’s stop pretending 60 Minutes is some innocent, impartial news program. Editing interviews to make politicians look better or worse—this is the bread and butter of corporate media. What this tells me is that we need less media censorship and more unfiltered, raw content. If Kamala sounded incoherent, so be it. The American people deserve to see politicians in their unscripted, unvarnished form, not whatever narrative corporate news wants us to digest.
