CNN Anchor Don Lemon Makes Up News – Says N-Word Tape Exists (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 6:05 AM
You Lie!
CNN anchor Don Lemon is now making up the news. The liberal news anchor claims that CNN has video of the Black Caucus members being called the n-word by tea party protesters on Capitol Hill. He says he’s seen it but, he won’t show it.
Uh-huh. Sure.
Via Free Republic
Then air it, Big Man!… Or, are you still dubbing it?
Andrew Breitbart has nothing to worry about here. He can hold on to his $100K reward.
There is no tape.

My God. We have had 9 years of lies and corruption from the media. CNN and MSNBN are guilty of treason and sedition of President Bush.
Now it’s time to call these bastards out. FOX can be included for lying about Obamas birth certificate.

Romans 1:28-30
“They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil.”
Faked but accurate. For the liars truth, facts, realities, and history do not exist. They are putty in their hands. They use them to make a point, to do good as they see it. And whatever they need to twist or omit is justified by their purity of intentions – and they always have the purest of intentions – Exterminate the unborn! Sanctify sodomy! Sexual exploitation of young women! False but justified.
The regime intends to silence blogs, talk radio and Fox News. Then, there will be no free press. Without a free press, it is impossible mount an opposition, appeal to outside opinion, or to make known the truth.

Liar!
cal rifkin commented:
Typical newsreader type – ill-prepared, unknowledgeable, beholdin’ to big shot lib network types and progressive buddies…and hey, if there’s not a tape, it won’t matter. It fits the narrative, so therefore it is true!
Reaganite Republican commented:
Jim, you don’t know that they can’t come up with such a tape… maybe it’s still stuck in production, lol
bill-tb commented:
There is no tape, only liberal lies.
And note these days those lies are covering near everything.
jerryl commented:
they say they have it so lets hear it or shut up and stop your liberal lies
Bill Mitchell commented:
“I have the video of the mafia hitman shooting Kennedy from the grassy knoll, but out of deference to the Kennedy family, I cannot show it to you…”
“I have video of the disciples stealing Jesus’ body from the tomb, but because it would cause violent uprisings in the Christian Community, I cannot show it to you…”
“I have a video of me playing poker with bigfoot, but since poker is illegal in my state, I cannot show it to you…”
Trust me…
Bill Mitchell commented:
The strange part in all this is that it would be SOOO easy for someone to take a video from that day and just dub in shouts of n-. I am just surprised that no one in this devious bunch has done that.
NeoKong commented:
It seems a little ambiguous to me.
He never actually says they have the n-word on camera.
The clip ended before he could explain what they have.
I need to see more.
MGB commented:
Listen to what he says. He’s misleading and obfuscating. No doubt about it, he’s talking about that video of Cleaver where he supposedly was “spit on,” except it was only a guy shouting, who inadvertently sprayed Cleaver.
They want to leave a false impression that a video exists. It doesn’t. (Can’t resist pointing out that this is exactly what they do with the birth certificate issue–leave a false impression that it exists somewhere out there in Obamaland. They’ve seen it, everybody’s seen it, except they won’t produce it or even ask Obama to produce it.)
It defies common sense to believe that a tape exists that would prove that what they contend is true, yet nobody in the lamestream media, not even Matthews or Olbermann, shows it (or tries to collect the hundred grand).
Kendra commented:
Yeah I call BS too. Reason #3,561 why I don’t watch CNN.
Mitch commented:
“We don’t report. We tell you what to decide.”

Also: You can’t have a tape of something that didn’t happen.
Andreas K. commented:
Hmm, if he has evidence, why not show it right away?
I mean, it would be breaking news? Why hasn’t the tape been prepared to be shown right away? That’s usually done.
Oh wait… it’s CNN. They make sh*t up as they go.
The problem with dubbing it in is that CNN and the rest of the nuts know that there are many people out there who will quickly dissect the video. And they will find out whether it’s real audio or dubbed later.
gus commented:
Why is this even being discussed?
I mean I have seen video of Don Lemon sucking Obama’s balls in the Oval Office.
I do. And he was spitting too. If you get my meaning.
I’ve seen the video.
I’m not going to show, you, you’ll just have to believe me.
R.Foster commented:
No tape exists. It would be in continuous loop on CNN/MSNBC/NBC/CBS/ABC. That is a fact.
gus commented:
DENIERS!!! “We have the tape here at CNN. I’ve seen it”.
Yes Donny, you have many tapes at CNN.
The one you are attempting to be dishonest about shows a CITIZEN shouting through cupped hands at a CONGRESSMAN.
It shows nothing more than that Donny.
M.S commented:
He should show the tape or be fired for lying about it
Ruth commented:
Hey Guys
Just for the record I believe I was watching this man on Sunday morning (don’t ask) describing the volcano on Iceland as spewing microscopic “participles of ash” into the air and thus making air travel impossible. Participles? That just about says it all.
RWGinger commented:
MBG nails it
“They want to leave a false impression that a video exists.”
Tht is exactly what they did. So what if some of their dozens of viewers understood, as they wanted them to undersgand, that CNN has a video of people shouting the N word when if CNN gets called out and has to explain will say Don actualy meant he as seen the spray video.
I love it that millions know better.
CNN is reducing themselves to meaningless faster than anyone could expect
sarainitaly commented:
He’s either confused or flat out lying. He is referring to the Cleaver spit tape.
Lewis was supposedly the one called the n-word.
Cleaver was the say it, don’t spray it victim.
Lemon must have paid close attention to the tape….
sarainitaly commented:
it just occurred to me that he probably never even watched the tape, but was just repeating what someone else at CNN told him.
down with dems commented:
This man should be fired and charged. If there was a tape, some lowly CNN tool wouldn’t be the only one on Earth to have seen it, and it would have been broadcast incessantly as a smear tactic.
Get the experts ready — the dubbing is in process.
newton commented:
A video exists?!?
Then, SHOW IT!!!!!
Otherwise…
ProLifer commented:
The “N-Word” was NUTTER!
(British Slang for an INSANE person!)
alwyr commented:
To Bill Mitchell: Obviously, there IS a reason no one has come forward with a doctored tape to try and collect Breitbart’s standing $100,000 reward. If (and more likely ‘when’) it’s proved to be a fake, the creator would be up on criminal fraud charges (after all, there is $100,000 involved!).
‘Dubbing in’ voice over video is actually quite easy; the tricky part would be ‘jimmying’ the internal date/time stamps so both data streams (voice/video) appear to have originated simultaneously. It’s a LOT tougher to do than one might think….Most digital platforms maintain an internal history of modifications which is pretty difficult to circumvent completely. I’m not saying it can’t be done…..I AM saying the $100,000 reward would appear to be incentive enough for a real ‘pro’ to try…But thus far no takers. That alone might show the degree of difficulty involved.
Now, as far as this clown who assures the rest of us ‘he’s seen/heard’ the tape? Air it! However, if it’s proven fake, the author will be facing time as dorm queen in the local Bighouse.
pm commented:
“Some things are not right in life. Some things are just about truth.” Those are Lemon’s words as this segment starts.
Well, CNN leaves the viewer thinking they have video of what Coulter had just referred to, when, in fact, it’s video not of the racial epithet but of the alleged sailing saliva.
Some things are just about deception. The Left knows that better than anyone.
Many things are not right in life. And it looks to me that we’ve strained God’s patience about as far as He’ll allow.

that should be “alleged” racial epithet..

Do these people not see what they’re doing? We have citizens – 4 out of 5 – who don’t trust their government.
There are at least that many who don’t trust these news sources.
This is chaos for a society. We cannot survive this much longer. It’s the same as a marriage — it wouldn’t survive this lack of trust.
Somebody’s got to clean it up. Somebody’s got to set things right again.
Mitch commented:
Re: Worst Things
“The regime intends to silence blogs, talk radio and Fox News.”
Actually, this regime hasn’t made any effort to silence blogs, talk radio, or other media outlets.
There have libs that want to pass Fairness Doctrine, but they haven’t made a push for it or even voted on it.
pm commented:
Mitch is making a pathetic attempt to defend this “regime.”
Timing is everything. The Left knows it. So is the wrapping on a present.
Stuart commented:
So here we are a month later still agitating over this non event because one person might or might not have called a congressman a bad name?
Really folks get over it. Is this what they pay those monster celebrity salaries to CNN anchors for?
John commented:
Actually, it would be kind of fun to start a thread on Kos or the HuffPo that Don Lemon has the smoking gun tape proving what happened, but he’s covering up the proof that the N-word was used by refusing to show it on CNN, because he and the suits at the network actually in league with the teabaggers and their neocon puppet masters.
Xenu's Paradox commented:
So CNN has the tape but won’t release it and claim the $100k donation to the UNCF in their name?
Why does CNN not want black people to get an education?

A_Nonny_Mouse commented:
Uh, sure he’s “seen the tape”. So had Al Sharpton when he did an interview with Bill O’Reilly a week or so ago. O’Reilly called Sharpton on it, and Mister Reverend Racebaiter had to backtrack his words.
It’s unfortunate that in 2010 America there exists a subset of citizens whose mental landscape contains most of the elements of a zombie movie– except instead of the Undead shuffling toward them calling for “Brains”, it’s a bunch of Typical White People shouting the N-word.
As far as I can tell, that’s the vision of America that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton see when they close their eyes. (Not to mention dolts like Maureen Dowd, whose inner racist intuited that Joe Wilson meant to add “boy” after he called out “You lie!”) For some reason, these idiots see and hear what isn’t there, and are eager to swear on a stack of Bibles that what-never-happened is the Truth.
This mindset is really frustrating for the Reality-based among us, who want the Current Administration to address the totally predictable (and yet, somehow, always unexpected) results of their meddling in processes they know nothing about.
When the rest of us protest the way the Majority Party decided to “fix” healthcare by passing a 2700-page bill –UNREAD, AGAIN– so we could “find out what’s in it”, we get labeled –one more time– as racists. (We’re also told we’re too stupid to understand the awesome wonderfulness Our Fearless Leaders are bringing forth in this brave new world.)
It’s really starting to grind on me: all these shrill Democrats doing op-eds and interviews, condemning me and millions like me as racist because we oppose the expanded government and intrusive, spendthrift laws they want to foist on us. Hey, leftys!! Here’s a thought: maybe it’s NOT that I hate and fear Obama because he’s half black… maybe I’m afraid of his America-hating white half, of the Marxism and anti-capitalism he learned at his mom’s knee.

RickZ commented:
This is the network who paid Saddam Hussein for access, hence slanted and censored their news coverage of Iraq. We should believe them on anything why?
Roy Mustang commented:
Why was the video cut off in mid-sentence? It hurts Gatewaypundit’s credibility when you pull crap like this.
Jo commented:
I think and he looks like a Dufus Farrakoookoo! (louis farrakhan);
He believes all white people are racists and the only way to deal with them is always accuse them of everything they do as tinged with racism.

I stopped watching CNN after I told them I would boycott them until they disclosed whatever factual basis Eason Jordan had for claiming that the US military was “targeting” journalists. Instead, he was allowed to resign without explanation.
Now we’ve had all kinds of stories about non-existent bad acts by the Tea Partiers. There are threats being made, there is foul language being used. In the different states, it has had different sources, so far. In New Jersey, the rage comes from the teacher’s union.

i cannot believe the change in my beloved country over the past decade, most notably in the past couple of years.. it’s like the new breed not only abolished the word “respect”, but all traces of it’s essence, meaning, intent & purpose..

Nothing in that video supports the headline. It freaking cuts off in mid-sentence.

okay, here yo go..
and yes i listened to the tape in “context”, and for
all internet & purpose that’s exactly what he said..
what does spat upon racial epitaphs, better yet “we have the tape here @ CNN; i saw it on CNN State of the Union, etc..” right after Coulter speaks about the reward for a tape with the anyone saying the N-Word in it, not
to mention: “so the tape is there”..
pray tell me, what do you suppose
he’s talking about ‘is on the tape’??

sarainitaly commented:
bg – OK, lemon is crazy. He is trying to use the Cleaver spit tape to say there is tape proving the n-word was used?
And he did not view the Cleaver tape – the way he describes it is not what is on the tape.

[bg – OK, lemon is crazy. He is trying to use the Cleaver
spit tape to say there is tape proving the n-word was used?]
exactly.. he refutes Coulters claim that there is no video proving (fitb) was ‘spat upon or called racial epitaphs’ (didn’t they also claim they heard the N-word word about 15 times?? duh!!)
what he said is CNN has the tape proving
(fitb) was spit on and called the N-word..
they do not..
