Bill Clinton says: Well if it is, it’s a mystery to me and all of her doctors, because frequently—well not frequently, rarely—but on more than one occasion, over the last many, many years, the same sort of thing happened to her when she got severely dehydrated.
But it’s edited so it looks like he said: Well if it is, it’s a mystery to me and all of her doctors, because rarely—but on more than one occasion, over the last many, many years, the same sort of thing happened to her when she got severely dehydrated.

The former secretary of state almost fell to the ground on Sunday — after possibly blacking out — after she was forced to leave a 9/11 memorial service. Her campaign claimed she was “overheated” and that she did not lose consciousness, but it was only 78 degrees that morning. It was only after video surfaced of Clinton going wobbly that the campaign issued a statement from her doctor acknowledging that she was diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday.
The editing is so seamless that it doesn’t even look like it was edited. After being caught by The Daily Caller in what amounts to a lie, CBS backpedaled and included the full quote on their morning show. But that didn’t matter – all the other networks picked up on the original, edited clip and ran with it.
This is far from the first time the mainstream media has been accused of some “aggressive” editing. They edited a Ted Cruz interview to take out some anti-Obama remarks, edited a police shooting victim’s sister to make her appear to call for peace when in fact she’s advocating burning down white people’s homes and edited comments from Trump’s Campaign manager claiming Trump promised to refrain from personal attacks, when he didn’t.
