CNN, that bastion of ethics!

Accusations that CNN manipulated their broadcast of Michael Moore's speech at the Oscars:

CNN and CNN Headline News aired a significantly different audio response to Mr. Moore's speech than was originally broadcasted on ABC.
It seems that someone has manipulated the audio to give the impression there was constant loud "booing" throughout Moore's speech, when in reality, there was only marginal booing often overridden with cheers and applause.
After reading about the incredible extremes to which CNN would go to obtain their news, bypassing any concern for human lives and the like, it wouldn't surprise me. At any rate, Moore got more exposure than he deserved, so in this case, it might be inconsequential - unless CNN has planned something else with Mr. Moore?
