MSNBC deceptive editing of Newtown Father being heckled. [View all]

I don't like it when Faux does it, and I sure as hell don't like it when MSNBC resorts to this kind of bullshit. It undermines your credibility. Don't do it. I understand doing the news or POV politicing requires clips to be edited, but don't do it to the extent of deception in order to change the pertinent context. The original edited version left out the man asking for anyone to answer his question. Even though someone eventually answered him by shouting over him, MSNBC should've at least shown that a person was responding to him asking a question of anyone in attendance.
