During a pandemic, the media can play an invaluable role in providing accurate reporting so that people may take action based on the best available information.
Scare tactics not only gravely undermine that sacred duty but give credence to the dangerously wrong belief that the coronavirus (COVID-19) presents no real threat.
For a second time, that lesson appears lost on CBS News. Weeks ago, the network aired footage of a chaotic scene at an Italian hospital while alleging the video came from New York City. (RELATED: CBS Admits to Using Footage from Italy to ‘Depict’ Chaotic Scene at NYC Hospital)
Project Veritas has now learned that a CBS News crew filming in Grand Rapids, Michigan wasn’t satisfied with the orderly COVID-19 testing scene at Cherry Medical Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Getting their desired footage involved taking medical professionals away from their duties and getting them in cars to give the illusion that the line of patients was longer. (Townhall)
Real patients were forced to wait longer for their tests because of the stunt.
On a hidden camera, one registered nurse who was working the line said they “pretended” to administer tests to the fake patients while the CBS News crew recorded. “There were a couple of real patients, which made it worse,” she said.
CBS News denied the allegation that they had anything to do with the stunt to Project Veritas.
“CBS News did not stage anything at the Cherry Health facility,” the statement said. “Any suggestion to the contrary is 100% false. These allegations are alarming. We reached out to Cherry Health to address them immediately. They informed us for the first time that one of their chief officers told at least one staffer to get in the testing line along with real patients. No one from CBS News had any knowledge of this before tonight. They also said that their actions did not prevent any actual patients from being tested. We take the accuracy of our reporting very seriously and we are removing the Cherry Health portion from the piece.”
Here’s a video update from James O’Keefe:

HELP Expose the TRUTH About Creepy Joe Biden
The media is the front line war team for the communist house of Congress and the Terrorist democratic Party of Scum
Dems are the nation’s Satanists who need a vaccine to totally delete them all.
If we could magically vanquish Hypocrisy – would democrats vanish as well?
Fake news. They are competing to see who can be worst. I guess they are now being paid for the PROPAGANDA since they don’t care about real news.
I guess we all have to look from within. WHO keeps electing these Demorats? How are so many people brainwashed? Is morality out the window? But, these idiots that elected them will be the first to cry when it interferes with their life.
totally agree!
a 9MM or a .357 size injection, at rapid speed works well on communist
Who reads this bs at all? The MSM is nothing but propaganda. Hitler controlled his country’s media and only wanted what he wanted said to be out there. Look how that turned out. I feel that anytime a so-called news outlet spreads falsehoods, then their license is revoked and all publications of such is nil. And people, HOW STUPID ARE YOU????
I think that before everyone of their broadcast that there should be a BIG DISCLAIMER for viewers to read that: THE FOLLOWING IS NOT NEWS: ONLY OPINIONS
I can not believe how this evil this people in media are. I hope they will pay greatly for its lies. Some heads need to foul off, and in person on an air apology needs to make to All Citizens and President and VP President.
I believe what they are doing is more treasonous now than what Benedict Arnold did then, or on the level of the same. So, convict some of these people, sell lottery tickets, to be drawn by number, of who wins the honor of who is to extinguish them by firing squad. There would be soooooo many tickets sold.
If the story doesn’t follow their script…they stage it. This is your American journalism, folks. And, most citizens are buying into it. All the mayhem will magically disappear on Nov 4. (Which BTW, may be your last opportunity to keep your rights as an American).
There is absolutely nothing beneath democrats, the DNC and the corrupt media. Their mantra is one of deception, deceit and lies. Hillary has been their poster child for decades.
a child that even I know, should have been aborted
You mean CBS (Constant Bull Shit) would INTENTIONALLY lie to it viewers?! Say it ain’t so!
Totally agree with these comments. The lies of the main media are so evident it is difficult to understand how intelligent people can fall for it.
and just who, said that they were intelligent ? A socialist university ? A communist liar? I would rather be smart or wise by GOD’s standard, than intelligent by man’s standard…
The “Commie Bama Socialist” are totally evil and wicked, just like their viewers, ALL democrats! They know nothing but lies and slander, the language is Satan!
How can you be a, I am saying a non-resident, lowly little somewhat black boy from Illinois, become president???? Without someone controlling you? Now, after politics, a very rich somewhat black boy. Go figure!
CBS news can’t let the Shit hole network CNN put out more lies than they do. CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NBC and ABC are the worst piece of crap out there. If the cable networks didn’t require that they be in the line up they would all be out of business. Just watch and wait, they will be going down just like the movie theaters are going to go, since they are all tied in with the scum in Hollywood and the democrets party. I have been wondering if I would live long enough to see them get their dues, but now I believe I will be around another year or two which should do it. They can take their big funder with them if he is still alive then, George Sores.
It appears so many have been raised without adult supervision, so morality and virtues were never ingrained in them. And they all tell total lies, which they know they are doing, with a straight face.
And the public is supposed to believe what CBS News says because ……………?
Another reason we should require occupational licensing to practice journalism. I believe absolutely NOTHING I see or hear from CBS, MSNBC, ABC and especially CNN. I never watch them.
CBS knew exactly what they were doing. The media has mislead Americans for their own personal gain. Media lies and hates American citizens. Crooked media supports open borders, supports abortion, and wants America in turmoil and division.
CBS lives up to it’s name…Fake News! Do people actually watch these bozos?
The goal sanctifies the device! That is the motto of Marxist Leninist philosophy. If it helps achieve the GOAL the means doesn’t matter. It is morally OK to lie, cheat, murder, whatever in the interest of the GOAL the socialist communist utopia. I know . I grew up there!
