And about four hours after our deadline, Barry Weiss sends an email to my boss, Tanya Simon.

Two of the things in the email include, can we make the protesters look more violent?

Now, I'm paraphrasing, I don't have the quote, but that's what was communicated to me.

And the other thing was, Renee Good's car, you need to describe her as driving toward the officer.

This is not what you see on the video.

On the video, you see the officer standing slightly off the front of the car, and you clearly see Miss Good's wheels turned completely as far as they will go, away from the officer.

But he shoots her in the head, kills her.

and says something about her in that moment that I can't repeat in polite company.

So we have gone out of our way in our plan from the very beginning to show the protesters for the responsibility that they had.

We had already scrubbed the video archives looking for those scenes, but it somehow wasn't enough for Ms.

Weiss.

The video showed that the officer wasn't standing in front of the car and she wasn't driving toward him, but that's what the president said about that, and that's the way she wanted it described.

Including an excellent one by the New York Times.

The video that I showed in our piece.

clearly showed the officer's feet.

So if he's standing in front of the car, you can't see his feet.

And it very clearly showed that the wheels were turned away from him, what appeared to be the maximum turn until the wheel had stopped.

I asked my producers, look, I told you to find violent video of the protesters so we could represent that accurately.

Now I want you to go back and look again.

Did we leave anything out that's important?
