Pennebaker: Clip Doctoered


I just spoke to D.A. Pennebaker, the director of "The War Room," who said his film had been doctored to produce a widely-viewed YouTube clip.

In a clip from his film on the 1992 Clinton campaign, posted to YouTube today, Clinton advisor Mickey Kantor is -- according to subtitles -- seen referring to Indianans with an expletive and to his colleague George Stephanopolous with a racial slur.

"He does not say that. He does not say that," said Pennebaker, after viewing the clip.

He said the initial expletive referred to the anticipated reaction in the Bush White House to the fact that Ross Perot's polling numbers were holding strong.

"What he says is he’s surprised Perot’s numbers are holding," said Pennebaker in a brief phone interview. "He says they must be shi**ing in the White House."

The second expletive, he said, appeared to have been entirely fabricated, with new audio dubbed onto the original movie.

Pennebaker appeared surprised and amused by the video.

"A thousand people saw that film in theaters and didn't think" the second expletive had been used, he said. "It's very clearly understandable. It's not like it was in Bulgarian."

:kick:

NO MORE!

Ya should have checked the source

OMG, a lot of red faces out there, I'll bet.

has made an A** of himself so many times. Recall he the one who
was ticked off at Hillary for not appearing on this show--so he went
into a hate hillary rant and has not stopped since.

We don't need to be playing these type of tactics. The Clintons have enough baggage and have done enough damage and have enough shady supporters to talk about without making stuff up.

why wd the filmmaker lie about it? seriously, and you know I can't stand Her Hillaryness, if the filmmaker says it's fake I believe him.

:eyes:

I would like to know who uploaded that on to Youtube.

Thanks for posting this.

:hi:

He apologizes and says, "excuse me" when he realizes that he was recorded. He says "those people are shit" not "they must be shiting in the white house" and there is no mention of Perot.

Go to the 4:45 mark

If you say so.

the clip is doctored and bogus

y'all fell for it

punked

??

If the so-called netroots supporting Obama couldn't lie, they'd have nothing to do all day. That's all they do.

Someone needs to stop this vicious gaming. And the networks could do a story on it. It hurts all parties and is an indirect attack on the American people.

Seriously.

It's not like this was a new movie or anything. Had this come out in the original version, I'm sure the outcry against Kantor would have started immediately.

go F yourselves.

sorry

"He does not say that. He does not say that," said Pennebaker, after viewing the clip.

I don't know what you're talking about.

It is clear he calls people in Indiana "sh*t", no disputing that.

I do remember watching the movie (I own a copy) and actually what's even worse about Kantor and the others is how they shut down Jerry Brown in the convention...who had won several states and wasn't allowed to speak.

Carville is clearly a racist asswipe and he was giggling when Kantor made his comment.

Rent the movie. See for yourself.

Did he 'doctor' that one himself? Lying Liar.

swing in the wind (bloggers pick it up--DU Obama fans pick up the distorted version)---and go with it.

If corrections are made...well they might see the light--but they hope the
damage has been done. No remorse.

This blew up hard in the face of the Obamites before it had even gotten anywhere!

Are saying, no, it's not. They're too far gone. Even when all the evidence and witnesses say otherwise, they still won't believe it.

Every single day, Obama supporters remind me more and more of Bush supporters.

Anybody who has the original on DVD or VHS can easily go to that part o the movie and see and hear for themselves if those words were spoken.

It seems as the director is not disputing that the "white-n*****" phrase was heard in the youTube clip, because he is claiming that it is new audio dubbed over the original movie.

As for the other phrase about "shitting in the white house", that should also be easily proven by watching the original. I know the "original" is available on youtube as well, but the director could just say that that one was doctored as well. The only way to know for sure is to watch the original.

on eidt: I myself have no comment until I watch the original myself. Until someone proves it otherwise, I'll take the director at his word.

on edit again: ok after rewatching the thing, I absolutely believe he says, "Those people are shittin'... excuse me... in the white house" and then he goes on to say "How would you like to be in the white house right now" or something. I really doubt he said "white-n*****". I don't think it's doctored, I just think it was misinterpreted in the you tube video with the subtitles.

As an Obama supporter I just wanted to set the record straight on what I think about this whole Kantor thing. Not that anybody really cares anyway...

:P

:nuke: and party hats were breaking out everywhere. Silly kids.

...oh, wait :silly:

after all we have been through..... is beyond me.
