Eau Claire (WQOW) - Video from one of WQOW News 18's newscasts has been taken down by the congressman's office responsible for posting it, after it was doctored by his staff.

On Thursday, WQOW News 18 covered Congressman Sean Duffy's visit to Chippewa Falls. WQOW News 18 asked him a number of questions about jobs, the federal budget and Medicare, and then shared his answers in a story that night.

On Friday, his office sent out an e-mail that included a YouTube link of WQOW News 18's story; a story they doctored by adding text over WQOW News 18's video. Text meant to strengthen their boss' image. The on-screen changes they made may have lead viewers to believe WQOW News 18 was endorsing Duffy's message. The video has since been removed by Duffy's office...............
