Caught on Tape: Reporters Overheard Plotting Smear Against Joe Miller



FEMALE REPORTER: That’s up to you because you're the expert, but that’s what I would do...I’d wait until you see who showed up because that indicates we already know something...
[Laughter]
[INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE REPORTER: Child molesters...
MALE REPORTER: Oh yeah... can you repeat Joe Miller’s...uh... list of people, campaign workers, which one's the molester?
[INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE VOICE: We know that out of all the people that will show up tonight, at least one of them will be a registered sex offender.
[Laughter]
MALE REPORTER: You have to find that one person...
[INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE REPORTER: And the one thing we can do is ....we won’t know....we won’t know but if there is any sort of chaos whatsoever we can put out a twitter/facebook alert: saying what the... ‘Hey Joe Miller punched at rally.’
FEMALE REPORTER: Kinda like Rand Paul...I like that.
[Laughter]
FEMALE REPORTER: That’s a good one.

Related Analysis at Big Government: CBS Affiliate KTVA Reporters Taped Conspiring Against Joe Miller Campaign

A voice mail message was inadvertantly left on the cell phone of Joe Miller Campaign spokesperson, Randy DeSoto.

The voices are believed to be those of the news director for CBS Anchorage affiliate KTVA, along with assignment editor Nick McDermott, and other reporters, openly discussing creating, if not fabricating, two stories about Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, Joe Miller

Shiori   October 30th, 2010 - 10:44 pm

"…inadvertently left on the cell phone of Joe Miller Campaign spokesperson…"

That doesn't make a lick of sense. I mean, I have no doubt that there are a gaggle of leftards plotting childish nonsense, but how does one 'inadvertently' leave the conversation of the opposition, ostensibly from other cell phones or voice mail, on the phone of Joe Miller's own spokesman? In any event – it's just one more instance of countless instances of libtards straining to give birth to their next gigantic lie to destroy a decent person or group. I think they actually have little slumber parties where they have seances and use ouija boards and voodoo dolls; they do each other's hair and bitch about how they totally hate so-and-so and proceed to share fantasies of horrible accidents befalling them. They're about to get grounded and their allowances taken away permanently. [A slap in the mouth for good measure too.]

I dont put this past the left to do something like this but I want to know some names to match those voices.

I thought I hated the liberal lame stream media before, but now I am outraged. CBS, NBC, and ABC are wretched and wicked.

DavidC99   October 30th, 2010 - 10:48 pm

So two messages left by liberals by accident; one was from Brown's camp, and now this. It's nice to know liberals suck at using technology. Now if voters would just stop selecting them to run the government.

Roger   October 30th, 2010 - 11:09 pm

You know that they would be the first to the the story and run with it until about 5 hours before the polls open.

Then they'd probably have a comment from princes Lisa and ask for her 'reasonable' response to such a 'scandal'.

These so-called "reporters" need to be identified and fired! They're supposed to REPORT the news, not fabricate it. This is beyond disgusting and reprehensible.

fastfacts   October 30th, 2010 - 11:22 pm

Joe Miller is going to win. The sad thing is that Drudge has only had two stories about the Joe Miller and Murkowski fight and the stories have been as numerous as Delaware's election. Everything from:

1) Lisa breaks her promise to support the Republicans winner and comes in as a write in.
2) Dozens of attack articles against Joe Miller, leaked to the media, from a women that said she was against them.
3) Lisa claiming she is endorsed by the NRA but during the General Joe Miller was given the A rating from them but no one was endorsed.
4) Then the courts ruled that he had to divulge his private records, Obama still hasn't done that, neither did Murkowski.
5) Then the Alaska Supreme Court ruled that the polling places had to report all write-in candidates. Unethical ruling, first in US history.
6) Then Murkowski gets a radio host fired for opposing her. Dan Fagan in Anchorage is a radio host that lost his show last Friday.

There are so many other very hot stories and Drudge is not reporting them, neither is anyone else. This is why I turn to http://www.americanparchment.com/archive/2010/oct... for my news, and I support them in my posts. Sorry if I post them too much but this is the best News Aggregate Site out there.

If Murkowski wins, it will be because of her poor ethics, attack ads, and hiding things that are unfavorable to her.

I like the Americanparchment website. It has homepage potential. I set Breitbart's site as homepage after searching for an alternative to the nauseatingly liberal Yahoo, Microsoft, or Google homepages. Breightbart has great editiorials, but I still get slapped in the face on a regular basis with offensive liberal AP headlines and picture propaganda. Thanks for the tip. It may very well become my news homepage.

Ivan_in_Phoenix   October 31st, 2010 - 2:50 am

Bernie Goldberg has been proven wrong once again. Liberal reporters DO set out to intentionally lie and promote their sick ideology.

These reporters have no moral compass, no conscience, no belief in the value of truth, and it is getting worse day after day!

hillranger   October 31st, 2010 - 3:34 am

Libs think that they are smarter than the average person and people will be better off if they live the life that the libs envision for others but not them.. Media thinks that no one but them can put the word out and change the world. Put those two together freedom of the press has a hold new meaning.

The unscrupulous Marxist media has been manipulating elections for generations. We now have the technology to detect the some of the Marxist scheming and a new conservative truth media to work around the unscrupulous Marxist media, but the unscrupulous Marxist media are still having undue influence over our electoral process.

The unscrupulous Marxist media are immoral and unethical and should be rejected. If one must encounter the propaganda the unscrupulous Marxist media generates and the Marxist reporters themselves, one should presume their propaganda to be false and manipulative, and the unscrupulous Marxist news verified in the conservative truth media.

The scum of dem/liberal debris has been behaving this way for years. The media is as full of lies and fraud as are the dems and both deserve the same fate. The media needs to be taken out and replaced with fair and objective reporting. The left cannot tolerate that because their entire agenda depends on lying and deceiving the American public. When that won't work they just steal the elections.

Democrat Party DOWN THE TOILET!!! Thanks Obumo, Pelosi & Reid. We couldn't have done it any better. Republicans look to gain another 21 seats in the Senate in 2012!!! wow…that translates into 70? seats in the Senate….Great Job Obumo, Pelosi & Reid!!! New Governorships in 2010!!! Can I say REDISTRICTING???!!! Another 20 plus seats in the House!!! There is an old physics law…"for each and every action there is an equal and opposite reaction". With the amount of push from the left over the last 30 years and now the last 18 months, the amount of push given back will be an equalizer. The beginning starts tuesday and the rest will follow over the next 30!!!

The press was given extraordinary power and insulation by the Founding Fathers so that it could function as a truth teller and a bulwark against tyranny. They were known as the 4th Estate. But now the mainstream press (media) has morphed into the 5th Column. They are serial liars and shameless prostitutes of the left.

They are as dangerous to our liberty as is a standing army and now we must wage war against them.

Wow. You guys sure don't need much in the way of verification before vilification, do you? Whose voices are those? You don't know. Where was this recorded, and by whom? You don't know. Some guy posts an audio that could have been made by anyone, anywhere, for ANY reason, such as to stoke your misguided anger and you don't question it? Wow.
I am glad that I and my folks like to research, wait, not rush to judgment, perhaps independently verify, before lighting the torches and wielding the pitchforks.
It is truly sad to see grown adults, who are allowed to vote no less, be fooled by such deceit. And so easily too. Maybe there is one born every second.
Y'all are just sad. Try thinking first. THINK! OUTSIDE RESOURCES. Quit reading only that which propagates your personal belief system. Is there no one amongst you with Reason? Aquinas says its the gift of god to humans. For the sake of all that is holy, please start using it.

AquaBuddda   October 31st, 2010 - 10:01 am

WOW, all that build up for a couple of "reporters" ( according to the uber credible Breitbart) making fun of how ignorant the miller canpaign is and how at least one of his backers has to be a child molester. OF COURSE THERE IS !!!

much ado about NOTHING and then the Wasilla bimbo brings it up so everyone will see this laughable "EVIDENCE" LOL LOL

AquaBuddda   October 31st, 2010 - 10:04 am

i guess you missed all the laughter and snickering. It was even in the transcript you DOLT !!

another breitbart NON issue that shows their desperation.
