    Glenn Beck's bloggers reveal truth, unedited video about the NPR Exec's Lunch.

    So, in what should be a surprise to nobody, as it turns out, James O'Keefe's videos of the NPR exec talking about the tea party were heavily edited and completely taken out of context, in order to make the exec look bad.

    And what can only be ironically described as crazy, it took Glenn Beck's bloggers to uncover the truth of it all:

    But even if you are of the opinion, as I am, that undercover reporting is acceptable and ethical in very defined situations, it is another thing to approve of editing tactics that seem designed to intentionally lie or mislead about the material being presented.

    It's amusing to me that even after the Juan Williams debacle, they decided to make a move on getting rid of this guy just based on another edited video from an obviously politically motivated "journalist".

    WHAT! O'Keefe heavily edits his hidden-camera videos to distort/misrepresent what people say?

    Shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

    It never does. ACORN was defunded and ended up disbanding due to O'Keefe's previous "creative editing", but an exhaustive witch hunt / investigation into ACORN ended up finding absolutely no wrongdoing on ACORN's part.
