John Dean says now. He said he'd do it but only because he could handle it himself and not have to hire a lawyer. -- (link) - Mop (222 lbs) Jul 29, 09:05 [Backboard] 1

  - Common sense lets us know this guy's intentions and he succeeded for a time, didn't he? -- nm - HdnAgnda Jul 29, 09:24
  - I honestly haven't followed this (I was on vacation). I thought it was generally edited, but even if it is just a clip it is edited. And I think - pmb Jul 29, 09:05

        I think the point is, "No, showing a clip, even if outside of context, is not considered 'editing' by definition." -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 29, 09:12 18

        She's giving a speech at a convention, she's a public figure. -- nm - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 29, 09:21 1

        So your point is that it's not the actual editing itself, it's his intention? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 29, 09:22 1

        It really isn't, but feel free to try and prove me wrong using an online source. I don't believe you'll find any source who would consider... - Name Withheld By Request Jul 29, 09:16 3
        
        In the link that mara posted, Breitbart is saying that the clip is edited (and that he didn't do the editing). -- nm - Roger More Jul 29, 09:19
        
        Actually, in hindsight, I think you are correct that is it considered editting, just not manipulation, which is more the context in this story. My ba -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 29, 09:18 1

If she can prove he edited the tape, I think she might have something. -- nm - ty97 Jul 29, 08:58 1
- Minor change: If she can prove that either 1) he edited it or 2) he had seen the full tape, she might have something. - ty97 Jul 29, 08:59
