Propaganda: CBS Accused Of Using Sky News Footage From Italy To Describe Situation In New York (Video)

It seems the lying liberal media isn’t above using foreign footage to make things look worse in America than they really are.  Citing tweets with videos, the Gateway Pundit tells us that CBS News used footage originally aired by Sky News to describe the situation in New York.

There’s only one huge problem.  The footage appears to have originated from Italy — not the Big Apple.

Here’s the tweet with two videos.  You take a look and compare for yourself:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

According to the report, the original footage from Italy was aired on March 22.  CBS aired their footage three days later on March 25.

Here’s the two reports as posted to YouTube:

ALX, the Twitter user who posted the comparison online, correctly noted:

It’s been like this for a long time…  This is why we call it the “Democrat-Media Complex.”

Update:  After this post was published, CBS said it was all due to an “editing mistake.”
