I've explained it multiple times.
You have yet to explain why an investigative body is required to release all information collected during the investigation.
You have yet to show where Fox requested the video footage and was denied. And if they did, why they were denied.
The investigative body withholding evidence discovered form all media sources is far less damaging than the investigative body releasing evidence discovered to one biased media source.
Release none, release portions, or release it all - just do it equally to all sources.
People went to prison based on poor choices which they made themselves.People went to prison based on the release choices made by this committee. They knowingly withheld video that directly contradicted their court room claims against defendants.
If transparency is valued then a biased committee choosing what to release is the opposite of what should happen.
I've already explained that there is nothing wrong with Tucker Carlson's selective release of surveillance video. The problem is that he is using that to frame the entirety of the day as having been a mostly peaceful walk through the Capitol by people who were disappointed that Trump lost the election. That is dishonest.
What???????????For democracy to function, people need access to information. It is on you to defend why this information should be hidden and/or classified. If you can't make that argument, then it needs to be released.
You're the one upset that all media doesn't have this video. You show me where they've been denied. That's not a central part of my argument, it's yours.
You say these three things as if they're all equally desirable. Why would we want none or only portions released? People need access to make informed decisions. If this was a horrific event involving Trump and right wing voters, it seems you would want people to see it. Why are we now pretending no access is a good thing?
You will have to be specific in regard to which cases you are speaking of. They are not all the same. .... The guy in Arkansas who was caught with Nancy Pelosi's laptop in his backseat has nobody to blame but himself for why he was convicted of a felony.The prosecution's argument was shown to be a lie once more video was released. They knowingly withheld it from the defense. That the way justice should work in the US?
