“Well, you know, if you just look at an article and discuss it, it’s garbage in and garbage out, right? If you haven’t ascertained the veracity of that article and it’s all BS and then you spend two hours talking about it, then you’ve put out a bunch of misinformation,” Kelly said to Jones during her final televised report — without showing the conversation leading up to the question. She then cut over a comment made by Jones and spliced in her next comment, saying, “I’m just trying to find out what the vetting process is.”

Jones is then seen saying, “I mean, we all get that Hillary was 15 points ahead, OK? We all get that MSM [the mainstream media] has got a big problem.”

The troubling thing here is that in the unedited audio InfoWars released, Jones actually continued to say, “And you know people have to come listen to me and actually see what I stand for. You know, not sit there and have little cherry-picked … take two weeks to edit it and a bunch of other stuff.”

Without seeing or hearing that fuller conversation and what Jones actually said, it appears as if he had trouble staying on topic; by whittling his answer down, Kelly and her team have deprived the audience of context. Jones can be heard in the audio he released getting up from the interview, frustrated with how things were going — and saying he understood exactly what Kelly was trying to do.

“You guys just don’t get it yet — just like you don’t get Trump,” he said.

Megyn Kelly’s ratings are atrocious and falling week to week. If they are any indication, she has lost the trust of the general public. This may be partly why: In an earlier phone call Jones released, Kelly promised a very different interview than the one that ended up happening. Add this new bit of audio and unsatisfactory interviews with guests such as Russian President Vladimir Putin — and people are wondering why the show is still on the air.

NBC has already reportedly paid millions to Kelly and announced a morning show for her, debuting in September.

No one expected Kelly to air hours upon hours of footage with Jones for her final story. But the editing at the very least suggests some dishonesty. And why not just release the full footage on the web — and let people decide for themselves whether or not the edits constituted honest reporting? [lz_pagination]
