Ilario Pantano ad called out for “trickery” on CNN

by Pat Gannon

Yes, we know that this is “so last week.” Watchdog$ is just catching up after a busy week.

A recent CNN piece by Anderson Cooper criticized Ilario Pantano‘s campaign for cleverly editing video segments to delete information that doesn’t put him in the most positive light, while leaving in commentary that makes him look good.

Cooper started the piece with these words: “We’re calling them out tonight because anyone who wants your vote and your trust shouldn’t try to get it by insulting your intelligence with trickery.”

See the CNN piece here. It pretty much speaks for itself.


Pantano, a Republican, faces U.S. Rep. Mike McIntyre, D-Lumberton, in the Nov. 2 election.
