CNN is being accused of editing the menacing red background color of Joe Biden’s prime-time speech Thursday night where he dubbed “MAGA Republicans” enemies of the state.
Biden delivered his anti-MAGA address in front of Philadelphia’s historic Independence Hall, but red lights shining on the building behind him and a zoomed-in crop editing out the blue lights beside the stage gave the already divisive speech a more menacing authoritarian tone.
However, in a feed of the event broadcast by CNN the threatening red background was observed to change to a more friendly hot pink, fuchsia or magenta color, leading to accusations the cable news network attempted to soften the speech’s dark totalitarian symbolism.

CNN’s apparent color correction was called out by many on social media:

According to a CNN representative, it wasn’t their fault.
In an exclusive comment to Infowars, CNN Head of Strategic Communications Matt Dornic claimed the network wasn’t responsible for the issue as they were simply mirroring a CBS feed.
On background: There was an issue with the CBS pool feed. They told us that they set up their camera during the day and then when the sun went down and the red and blue lights in independence hall came on, the color temperature was off. Each net had to correct on the fly in their control rooms with varying levels of success. This is not something that can be easily corrected in the field. I confirmed w nbc/MSNBC that their control room also had to make the fix and bring the levels back into range. I suspect if you check CBSN, you’ll see the same issue.
Infowars was unable to verify Dornic’s explanation via CBS video of the speech.
Biden’s angry rant declaring a radical threat posed to America by MAGA Republican extremists while at the same time calling it a “battle for the soul of the nation” was seen by many on both sides of the political aisle as deeply divisive and antithetical to unifying a broken nation.
