Ken Berwitz “There is ample reason to think that this is merely the tried and true tactic that we\’ve seen from extremists on the right to edit this video and selectively release this edited version of the video that grossly distorts the position of the person that\’s actually speaking…” You have just read a statement made at today\’sWhite House press...
