Vile hypocrisy exposed by Reporter Just Doing His Job.

Just came across this and just knew that it had to be on ATS.

A reporter actually questioning the official story and digging deeper, feinting left, jabbing right and going right for the basket. This guy is what it used to be like when we watched the news and is what many of us still expect from that profession. Sadly tho, we see this kind of passion less and less these days.

Watch the whole thing but pay special attention to the 2:20 mark...Nice!

For those that want a text version, here's a snippet and the rest can be found at the YT page:
www.youtube.com...#!

VICTORIA NULAND, spokesperson for State Department: Listen, before we leave Syria, I just want to take the opportunity, if you didn't see it, to draw your attention to the Human Rights Watch report that was released today that identifies some 27 detention centers that Human Rights Watch says Syrian Government intelligence agencies have been using since the Assad crackdown on pro-democracy protestors. The report found that tens of thousands of Syrians are in detention by regime security and intelligence agencies and that the regime is carrying out inexplicable, horrific acts of torture, including -- well, I'm not going to repeat them here, but I'll leave it to you to read the report. And, you know, in many cases, the Human Rights Watch asserts that even children have been subject to torture by the Assad regime.

AP reporter Matt Lee: Do you see that report as credible and solid, and you're putting -- you're endorsing it? I mean, you're saying --

Victoria Nuland: We have no reason to believe that it is not credible. It's based on eyewitness accounts, and they're reporting from a broad cross-section of human rights figures inside Syria.

Matt Lee: So the next time Human Rights Watch comes out with a report that's critical of Israel for its treatment of the Palestinians, I'll assume that you're going to be saying the same thing, correct; that you think that the report is credible, it's based on eyewitness accounts?

Victoria Nuland: Uh, as --

Peace

Exactly. Only when it serves their agenda is the Human Rights Watch reports every worth bringing up and putting attention on. In this case, we all know what the agenda is: To end all the middle eastern resistance to the NWO, by killing all their leaders and putting in their own puppets just like they did with Ghadaffi and Saddam Hussein and Mubarak and i probably missed someone but the point stands: Assad is next, and they will use any circumstantial evidence they can find to paint him in a bad light to coerce the public into support for another violent action.

Too bad most of the sheeple can´t see this because they are busy mowing their lawns so they won´t get sued for having too long grass....

Nice thread jude11. Isn't it amazing how these people can say this stuff with a straight face - "we have no reason to believe it is not credible. It is based on eyewitness accounts". Literally exactly the same reports come out of Palestine by the same human rights group and the are dismissed outright. Life must be frustrating for a reporter who actually cares (and this guy is an example of one who does) and how your view on the state department must really be messed up when you hear this day in and day out. Amazing. Using the same group who's reports you have condemned to further your agenda when it suits you. All with a straight face. I wonder when the next report comes out of Palestine from humanwatch how they will spin it - because it is obvious that they will. - Oh, just to mention you will most likely get a lot of right wing flak due to the fact glen greenwald is quoted.

Nice catch.

Yup, "Credible Sources" and "Unnamed Sources" and "Reliable Witnesses" and "Pentagon Officials".

But never a freaking NAME!

I just saw this video this morning. Glad you posted it here to get a discussion going. She looked wicked uncomfortable when he called her out- think they'll try to ban him from press conferences?

It would be great if more reporters asked challenging questions like this.

Yup, he may get banned for telling the truth...seems to be a big No-No in the news these days.

I'd say if he'd forgotten anything in the room, he'd have had a rude surprise going back for it, as a measure of how fast I'm guessing his bosses got phone calls about him. I'll bet he's either a very docile and boring reporter for awhile or he's very much elsewhere forever. Maybe McMurdo Station so he can cover Lake Vostok for the new season.

Poor guy....He didn't make Obama mad. He made Hillary mad.

But he made me smile!

It was great to see some REAL questions being asked and a reporter not backing down.

Peace

Excellent post! She sure didn't like having to listen to that awesome reporter call her on the complete bull that is our foreign policy. She only endorses information when it suits a pro-Israel/pro-American agenda. Enough with the lies!

I agree. This is what I imagine the job of a reporter to be...and what I think they were until not that long ago. At least one dared to take a little pride in his work.

I have a feeling that he just woke up one day and said "No More".

I don't know of his history but for him to be in that room and posing questions like that...Curious.

She knew him as well as whoever let him in the room. If he was always this outspoken and forceful I think he would have had his press pass revoked long ago.

Somehow I think he just got tired of bowing down and staining his profession. Not sure but for some reason I think I'm close to the truth on this one.

what a shame,
pity he didn't pull this one on barry or hillary
instead of a proxy

then again he might have been escorted of the premises by security and put on the next flight to gitmo
vile might be putting it a bit mildly IMO

I think if he pulled this on Barry or Hillary, we wouldn't have the pleasure of watching it. As it is, we all get to watch and maybe a few other reporters will learn something.

I wish I had something more intelligent to say but I just have to go with what went thru my mind while watching this guy serve this B****, all while sitting back calmly in his chair.

"OHHH SNAP"!!!

That was exactly how I would have handled her too.
He totally set her up and led her down the path of her own destruction from the very first words out of his mouth.
Watch his technique.
He set her up and then slam dunked that B**** and didn't even blink!!!!!

HRW is funded by Western govts and organizations.same guys related to NWO. Specially Soros.

I don't take Soros propaganda seriously.

my thoughts exactly. false flag attempts left and right. you would think people would start recognizing them by now.

reply to post by jude11


Well, that wasn't very comfortable to watch.

HOWEVER,

I would like to see the face of the person who posted this video. They went through all that effort to fake a Brooklyn accent. I'd like to know why.

Motive is 90% of a story.

People need to start supporting reporters like that guy, else they'll dissapear.

Motive is obvious here, can´t you see?

The Motive is to expose the blatant hypocricy used by the government spokespersons to spin reports in their favor to feed their Agenda. It is also to show that there thankfully is at least some honest journalists out there still... so hope is not all lost.

Since you seem so suspicious of this obvious motive that is clearly good for the public, i can only surmise you belong to "them"... your emphasis on using an atypical "shoot the messenger" type of disinfo tactic bringing up something as nonsensical as the accent only serves to further enforce this conclusion...

I'm thinking along similar lines, wondering when he decided to 'self destruct'.

My first guess is that he is trying to cash in on widespread, grassroots awareness about the real israel, and her bitch the united states. There is no way this man would be around if he'd piped up like this earlier, and he may not be allowed in another secured room. He too may be trying to clear his conscience. I don't know. I do know that such segues are readily slapped down even on websites such as this. I just can't see Matt Lee surviving this line of questioning. Saying stuff like this is like turning on the lights when rats and roaches are feasting in a food storage locker. That must make them feel terribly uncomfortable. I hope he will survive.
