Reply #58: But there is an issue with this video [View All]

[Gormy Cuss]

I'm sure the official spin is that cropping it makes the video viewing better on the web site but this speech with the prominent 'Mission Accomplished' banner was the seminal moment for the administration in its Iraq war campaign. It's a tad too convenient that this one was cropped in this way. I would wager that some of the other videos with black bars across the bottom are also the result of cropping for content rather than clarity.

I doubt it's dumb luck. The only question is who made the choice to make this convenient edit.
