Well, here we go again with CBS playing its favorite game—cherry-picking interviews to fit their preferred narrative. This time, it’s House Speaker Mike Johnson who’s calling them out for selectively editing his answers during a Face the Nation appearance. You’d think a national news outlet would at least try to cover all the bases, but no—CBS conveniently snipped out five full minutes of Johnson’s remarks on disaster relief and election integrity. And of course, what’s left makes little sense. Coincidence? Doubtful.

Let’s talk about the disaster relief clip first. Johnson was discussing FEMA’s abysmal response to Hurricane Helene in North Carolina, and what aired on CBS was a disjointed 11-second soundbite that barely scratched the surface. Johnson, however, had a lot more to say—like how two weeks after the storm hit, people were still stranded, waiting for help. He urged CBS to send their own cameras to talk to the people directly affected. But why show that? Better to make it look like Johnson was vague and out of touch, right?

Now, on to the juicy stuff—election integrity. CBS did what they do best, cutting Johnson’s comments about states allowing non-citizens to vote and Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin’s fight to clean up the voter rolls. Johnson pointed out that the Biden administration actually sued Virginia for trying to ensure only eligible voters can cast ballots. Yeah, you read that right—apparently, making sure non-citizens don’t vote is now a crime in Biden’s America.

CBS aired a tiny clip of Johnson discussing voter fraud but conveniently chopped out the part where he explains how the House passed the SAVE Act, which would require proof of citizenship before registering to vote. Naturally, this was blocked in the Senate by—you guessed it—Chuck Schumer and his Democratic pals. Johnson laid it out clearly: if the Biden administration actually cared about election integrity, they’d be supporting efforts like the SAVE Act instead of opening the border and creating doubts about who’s really voting. But why air that when CBS can focus on the tired old 2020 election angle?

Sure, CBS posted the full interview on YouTube, as if that makes up for their edited version on national TV. But let’s be honest—most people are watching what airs on TV, not digging through YouTube for the uncut footage. The selective editing game is just another tactic to push the narrative they want, and it’s becoming more obvious by the day.

The fact is, Johnson’s full answers—whether on disaster relief or election integrity—don’t fit CBS’s agenda. And when the media starts slicing and dicing interviews to push a particular viewpoint, it’s no longer journalism; it’s propaganda. The American people deserve better than that.
