Video plays role in fact-checking

By on September 25th, 2008 In Social Media

There are lots of web sites, political groups, media folk and organizations (even the candidates’ sites) fact-checking statements politicians make, so it must be increasingly hard to face the cameras.

Some wing it, others –like Joe Biden- completely make it up as they go, only to be found out. Everyone is up for this kind of scrutiny.

Jon Stewart had had a field day earlier this month, running side-by-side video clips of the things people say in the political circus. Video is playing an interesting role this election season, and it must make campaign managers think hard about what position their spokespersons or surrogate snipers need to take.

Watch this!
