Jake Tapper declares Biden White House lied about 'cheap fakes' after CNN peddled narrative in 2024
Fox News
Before Jake Tapper acknowledged the "cheap fakes" narrative was false, his CNN colleagues peddled the Biden White House talking point in the days leading up to the now-infamous debate.
At the time, a video of Biden had gone viral showing him freezing on stage and being escorted offstage by Obama, something Tapper referenced during a CNN appearance last week promoting a new book about the cover-up of Biden's decline in office.

"The Biden White House falsely- when people showed that clip and asked what was going on- said it was a ‘cheap fake.’ They did this all the time when there was video that seemed to show Biden acting in an odd or unusual, seemingly out-of-it way, they would call it a ‘cheap fake.’ It was not fake. It was actual video," Tapper said on Wednesday.
