CNN - Fox News edited Trumps rambling answers and false claims in barbershop interview, full video shows
By Brian Stelter and Liam Reilly, CNN
Published 8:29 AM EDT, Thu October 24, 2024
The Fox News Channels recent segment about Donald Trumps surprise visit to a barbershop in the Bronx resembled a campaign ad for the former presidents reelection.
Trump was seen taking questions and making small talk with Black and Hispanic barbershop customers and workers, some of whom were wearing Make Barbers Great Again shirts. The visit was part of Fox & Friends co-host Lawrence Jones ongoing barbershop interview series.
But the version of the visit shown on television was, to borrow a hairstyle metaphor, a crop cut. Fox edited out many of Trumps rambling comments and false claims. Participants had to repeatedly follow up when Trump meandered away from the original point of their questions.
CNN reviewed a more complete video of the barbershop visit that was uploaded to Instagram on the day of Trumps appearance in the Bronx and compared it to the segments that were shown on Fox & Friends on Monday.

60 minutes edits for time, not content. Fox and others have been editing Trump's interviews for years. Only they don't do it for time, they do it to try to make Trump sound as coherent as possible - an admittedly difficult if not impossible task.
