Sarah Palin Calls KTVA Crew ‘Corrupt Bastards’ For Accidental Joe Miller Phone Message (UPDATE)

audio
» 131 comments

One lesson sure to be learned from this year’s midterms is that it’s important to make sure you have properly hung up your phone. Yesterday members of KTVA a CBS affiliate crew (Update: CBS clarifies that KTVA is not an affiliate: “KTVA News is owned by the Alaska Broadcasting Co., not CBS. No CBS staffers were involved and CBS has no knowledge of and no comment on these allegations.”) in Alaska were accidentally caught on a answering machine discussing finding negative stories about Joe Miller to cover in the final days of his campaign. A transcript and audio of the message was posted on Miller’s site.

FEMALE REPORTER: That’s up to you because you’re the expert, but that’s what I would do…I’d wait until you see who showed up because that indicates we already know something…
[Laughter] [INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE REPORTER: Child molesters… MALE REPORTER: Oh yeah… can you repeat Joe Miller’s…uh… list of people, campaign
workers, which one’s the molester? [INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE VOICE: We know that out of all the people that will show up tonight, at least one of them will be a registered sex offender.
[Laughter] MALE REPORTER: You have to find that one person… [INAUDIBLE]
FEMALE REPORTER: And the one thing we can do is ….we won’t know….we won’t know but if there is any sort of chaos whatsoever we can put out a twitter/facebook alert: saying what the… ‘Hey Joe Miller punched at rally.’
FEMALE REPORTER: Kinda like Rand Paul…I like that.
[Laughter] FEMALE REPORTER: That’s a good one.

According to the Daily Caller “assignment editor Nick McDermott texted an apology after realizing he left a voicemail: ‘Damn iPhone … I left you a long message. I thought I hung up. Sorry.’” But there’s been no further response from KTVA.

The same cannot be said for Miller supporter Sarah Palin who tweeted earlier this morning that the CBS crew were “corrupt bastards.” Twice.

Meanwhile, despite Palin’s Rahm-like support Miller has sunk so far and so fast in the polls this past week that the GOP is reportedly abandoning him in favor of write-in candidate Lisa Murkowski.

    I think she’s 100% correct. CBS is another mouth piece for the left/Democrats and instead of doing straight news, they manufacture political propaganda.

    Well, I guess Glynnis didn’t get the message from yesterday’s rally.

    I can’t believe this headline – CBS reporters caught on audio attempting to MAKE UP SHIT about Miller and his campaign staff…..that is NO accident Glynnis.

    Does anyone still believe that CBS is a legitimate news organization? Didn’t anyone with a brain give up on that notion after the national guard docs in the 2004 election?

    What the hell does this mean? Is the CBS crew’s sin forgiven because they left messaging apologizing for leaving a “long message”? Their sin wasn’t the length of the message. Their sin was the conspiracy to defraud the public revealed in the message. Did they acknowledge that? Are they forgiven for that?

    And the Miller supporter (note the word ‘supporter’–not Miller himself or anyone employed by his campaign) is to be indicted for calling the CBS crew “corrupt bastards”? FIne, “bastards” is a little strong, but “corrupt” is right on target.

  • Question_Assumptions

    Was Sarah Palin calling the CBS Crew “Corrupt Bastards” for the accidental phone message, as the article title implies, or because of the content of the message, that talked about making up scandals to hurt Joe Miller? And is the lesson people should be taking away from this, “it’s important to make sure you have properly hung up your phone,” or should the lesson be that people shouldn’t be engaging in saying and doing nasty things that they need to hide from the public? This is like arguing that people were upset about leaks in the Nixon administration rather than the Watergate break-in and that the lesson to learn from Watergate was to not get caught.

    I’m assuming that there’s no ‘out of context’ issue here. I can’t imagine how that’s even possible, but the full audio of the voice mail has to be released before everyone jumps. If this is ‘in context and real Palin’ ‘corrupt bastards’ would be ‘spot on.

    The press release from the TV station is absurd. Hotair has the full press release and lots of commentary about the absurdity of CBS.

    I’m surprised Glynnis hasn’t updated her story.

    CBS – Corrupt Bastard Society?

    Dan should come on board and condemn CBS for what was done here and Glynnis should update her story with the press release.:

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Blair-Maury/1027829552 Blair Maury

    These weren’t CBS reporters. They were reporters from the new operation of a CBS affiliate. That is not the same thing.

    Just like when the reporter for the Fox affiliiate in New York who was charged with child molestation was not a Fox News Employee.

    I would expect more in both cases from a Media website, but I am not shocked that the commenters on either side of the aisle misrepresent these cases for their own aims.

    This was a badly done headline.

    Definition of child abuse

    1. Taking a 13 hour flight when you are in labor, possibly resulting in giving birth to a retarded baby.
    2. Using children as political stage props.
    3. Teaching innocent children that imaginary sky-daddies created the universe 6,000 years ago by magic.
    4.Teaching innocent children that the magic sky-daddy fathered a son with an 15 year-old female child.

    So, let me make sure I understand Palinese logic:

    1) OTHER people using the word “retarded,” even to refer to an inanimate object, is unacceptable … because Trig is retarded.

    2) PALIN using the word “bastards” to describe specific individuals, is acceptable… in spite of Tripp being a bastard.

  • Arkansas Steve

    WOW, I watched all four Sunday morning shows. Thanks for the DVR.

    By far the most impressive, perhaps the ONLY impressive, thing I saw this morning was: Ta Da: Chris Wallace’s interview with Sarah Palin. This woman has grown incredibly since she was introduced two years ago. She spoke better than anyone else; more clearly, more logically, more passionately, more intelligently.
    Anyone who hasn’t seen her entire interview with Chris should watch it, beginning to end.

    My grades on the morning shows:

    ABC This Week = C- (That’s as good as you can do with Donna Brazille & Arianna Huffington)
    NBC Meet the Press = C+ (Dull, boring, nothing bad, nothing good either)
    CBS Bob Schieffer = B- (Good closing about BCS football, boring, Bob’s just waiting to retire, you can tell)
    FOX News Sunday = A (Sarah Palin would have clobbered Hillary or Barack. She was passionate. She totally controlled Chris Wallace. Her voice was strong, not too high pitched. Democratic guest was pretty stupid, not FOX’s fault. He was there to “deny the obvious”. I think Chris Wallace tries too hard to confront Republican guests because his network is not a liberals only house of words. In other words, he doesn’t want to give Republicans an easy ride in spite of the fact that the “alphabet” networks DO WANT to give Democrats an easy ride.

    Sarah Palin has the most irritating voice of any woman in politics, maybe not to you but to me. I cannot stand to listen to her. But her criticism of CBS News as “corrupt bastards”, first is an insult to her grandson and second is the height of hypocrisy. To call a network other than her own Faux News ‘corrupt” is the pot calling the kettle black. Fox News IS the most corrupt, biased network on the air today. Never do you hear the other side. And, Arkansas Steve, if she is elected to any national post, God help you and us if her policies become law.

    Foxnews is the only network who consistantly gives both sides of the story. They go out of their way to allow an opposing point of view. CBS is constantly loosing viewership due to their corrupt style of journalism. They are now wallowing in the same reprehensible grocery store rag-magazine journalism that MSMBC, and CNN have dwindled down to. They are at the bottom of the cellar, and that’s just where they belong. They have lost all credibility!

    How about women bearing multiple children while incapable of supporting even themselves, then expecting other people’s taxes to pay for their upbringing – and a political party that enables and encourages this Reckless Childbearing in exchange for votes & support!

    Nope, just me, and one thing that bugs me are people just have to play mental gymnastics and word games for the sole purpose of satisfying their need to dump on Palin. There are several definitions of the word “bastard”, and while the left trip over themselves to encourage single parenthood, it’s now become chic to refer to Palin’s grandkid as a bastard.

    Palin’s use of the word bastard was spot on in describing despicable people.

    Take your righteous condescension and shove it, dirtbag.

    Drinking the kool-aid i see. Any reporter for a network affiliate is considered a reporter for that network. When news breaks across the country the network bosses doesn’t say fly out our reporter to that city, no they use a local reporter from their affiliate. AND YES the station is a CBS affiliate and CBS spins that is isn’t because they do not own the station is a complete joke. The networks own very few of their affiliates.

Going back and editing it because CBS falsely claims that since they do not OWN the station then it is not a CBS affiliate. Seeing that CBS actually doesn’t own most of their affiliates does that mean CBS doesn’t actually have local affiliates? Wonder who’s reporters CBS uses if there is a breaking news in that town and they need to get on the air quickly?

  • Uncredentialed

    It is a stretch to bring CBS into this. They provide national programming for the station, but the company that owns the station is responsible for their own news operations. For example, I’ve been in a market where the ABC and FOX affiliates actually use the same staff for both newscasts (they’ll produce the 10pm news on “FOX”, then at 11pm back to “ABC”)

    You truly have no idea what you are saying here.

    Try this one on:

    My local NBC News 10 Team and the Fox 43 team is the exact same team. They do the 10 o’clock news on Fox and the 11 o’clock news on NBC.

    http://www.fox43tv.com/
    http://www.wavy.com/

    So when they break news, are the the liberally slanted NBC or the Fair and Balanced Fox?

    The answer that anyone other than you knows is neither. They work for the local affiliate.

    Here’s another conundrum for those who don’t understand how television works;

    Norfolk’s WAVY-TV is owned by LIN Media.

    In Albuquerque, the Fox affiliate (KASA) used to get it’s news from the Hubbard-owned KOB, but then Raycom bought Liberty’s stations and chose to sell KASA to LIN. LIN already owned the CBS affiliate in town (KRQE), but the KASA/KOB contract had several months remaining which meant they couldn’t immediately switch over to using KRQE’s resources.

    Which if you wrap that all up in a bow… For a few months, the Fox station carried the NBC affiliate’s news, while they were owned by same company that owned the local CBS.

    And another way one might phrase it, if you were to take all of the politics out of the equation; For a while, perhaps almost a year, the Fox affiliate wasn’t complementary to their sister-station from the same owner, instead they were under contract to push viewers to its direct competitor.

    Good news for Miller !

    From Left-leaning PPP :

    Joe Miller is favored heading into the final two days of the US Senate campaign in Alaska. 37% of voters say they’ll pick him while 30% plan to vote for Scott McAdams and another 30% plan to write in Lisa Murkowski.

    Another programmed conservative: if a media outlet doesn’t have a conservative or reactionary POV, then it must be “cheer leaders for the corrupt Leftists.” That’s the view of Newsbusters and the Media Research Center. They complain about “bias” in the media and then turn blind eyes toward the lies and extreme bias on FoxPAC.
