CBS News‘ “60 Minutes” on Sunday delivered something along with its regular newsmagazine segments. This system offered a message to former President Trump and a bunch of critics who’ve castigated the long-running news series for the way in which wherein it edited a recent interview with Vice President Kamala Harris in order that she gave the impression to be offering different responses to the identical query.

“Former President Donald Trump is accusing 60 Minutes of deceitful editing of our Oct. 7 interview with Vice President Kamala Harris,” the show said in a press release released Sunday evening. “That is fake. “

“’60 Minute’s gave an excerpt of our interview to ‘Face the Nation’ that used an extended section of her answer than that on ’60 Minutes.’ Same query. Same answer. But a distinct portion of the response.” the statement continued. “After we edit any interview, whether a politician, an athlete, or movie star, we try to be clear, accurate and on point. The portion of her answer on ’60 Minutes’ was more succinct, which allows time for other subjects in a large ranging 21-minute-long segment.”

The CBS newsmagazine has come under scrutiny in recent days after Trump took issue with the Harris interview (and declined to seem on this system after having previously committing to accomplish that.) Trump took to social media to castigate this system and his supporters have also criticized “60 Minutes” and the interview, accusing the show of helping Harris by editing her responses to questions selectively.

It might be common practice for “teasers,” or snippets of a news-making interview which are shown upfront of the particular segment featuring the conversation, to make use of different portions of a response than the edited one which appears later. Still, within the age of social media, wherein viewers can post different video segments and pass them along for contrast and comparison, such efforts can backfire. On this instance, while CBS News showed different portions of Harris’ response to questions from “60 Minutes” correspondent Bill Whitaker, the incontrovertible fact that the “teaser” and the actual interview didn’t match exactly opened the Paramount Global news unit to second-guessing and criticism.

“60 Minutes” used Sunday’s rebuke of the Trump critique to press him to debate the matter more fully — on CBS News air. “Our long-standing invitation to former President Trump stays open. If he would love to debate the problems facing the nation and the Harris interview, we could be comfortable to have him on ’60 Minutes.’”
