CBS, NBC and Fox all doctored Rumsfeld incident with McGovern

When retired CIA analyst Ray McGovern asked Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld some very important questions in Atlanta last week, he was labeled a "heckler" and there were attempts to remove him from the hall. During McGovern's exchange with Rumsfeld, the defense secretary stammered on several occasions.

NBC, CBS and Fox News all edited out the stammers, but more important--they edited out key passages of McGovern's questions and arguments. Media Matters has an analysis of what was taken out of the exchange.
