CNN had McCain speaking to Vets a few minutes ago... anyone else see?
so McCain drones on and on like he always does - and at the end of the so called speech, there was this robust applause with whistling and cheering. The actual group looked rather small, at least what the camera showed, and nothing int he visuals supporting the audio cheering, nothing! just normal clap clap, no arms outstretched in passion, no nothing like that.

the cheering was louder here than what I heard from the crowd in Obama's speech yesterday in Germany.

Is CNN fucking with the sound again?

1. Maybe they have the equivalent of a laugh track
except it's cheers.

4. that is exactly what it sounded like - a clap track.
maybe one day some technician in the back rooms will have a tell all book on how manipulated we all are.

looks......

3. Faking the audio?
That would be beyond comprehension.
