Just as CBS News deals with the end of the fallout from a deceptively edited version of an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, the network is once again facing similar allegations. 

This time, according to the New York Post, the allegations are coming from House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

Johnson recently claimed that the network "trimmed down" his interview with "Face the Nation" over the weekend, going as far as to suggest that it's the network's way of going after conservatives.

The Republican speaker took to his X account to express his frustrations with the network, which seems to always lean toward favoring Democrats and making Republicans look bad.

What did he say?

The Louisiana Republican held nothing back in his assessment of what's happening at the liberal-friendly network.

“CBS has been under fire for selectively editing their interviews to PROMOTE Democrats and UNDERMINE Republicans. Yesterday, they chose to cut FIVE important minutes out of my nearly 15 minute interview," Johnson said.

You can be the judge as to why.

Johnson did, in fact, provide receipts, releasing several answers on questions he received on various topics, including hurricane relief.

Big edits

A question about undermining "confidence in the integrity of the state elections," seemed to get the most editing by the network.

The Post noted:

CBS News excised roughly a minute and a half of the speaker’s answer, during which he sparred with host Margaret Brennan over the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which requires would-be voters nationwide to present proof of citizenship when registering to cast ballots.

“Noncitizens are not allowed to vote under federal law,” the network showed Johnson saying, before cutting off the next part of his answer.

“But the states have prohibited it,” the unaired statement went, according to the Post. “We passed the SAVE ACT you know, in the House. The SAVE Act says you gotta have proof of citizenship before you register to vote."

Sadly, this will likely not stop before the November election.
