We were doing our nightly news scan yesterday watching this story, on PBS Newshour about the controversy brewing over “Three Cups of Tea”, when we got Slurpied [see Glee].
Margaret Warner, one of the most polished reporters on TV, improvised when she read the teleprompter and clearly announced “One — Vidiot — Videographer came out with a statement today”.
We heard it with our own ears and immediately went to PBS Newshour to view again the video and the transcript.
The exact time in the interview of the “slip” began at 7:10 into the clip. When we scanned down to the “transcript” they changed the words out of her mouth to “One — another — a videographer came out with a statement today saying”.
Perhaps they were afraid to offend videographers because they don’t know the deeper meaning of Vidiot(s), modern humans with mind empty/ready to be filled with new information.
We were watching this report for material on an upcoming article, “The Charity Tax” … coming soon!
