Following President Donald Trump's press conference on 15 August 2017, many observers initially believed that the president had referred to white supremacists who marched in Charlottesville, Virginia three days earlier as us. Critics of the speech cited a transcript published by the news web site Politico that initially read: But footage from the press conference shows that Trump's audio appears to cut out around the moment he refers the alt-left (at about the 0:34 mark of the following video): A separate transcript released by CNBC also reflects the lack of clear audio at that moment in the press conference. We contacted the White House press office, as well as CNN producer Elizabeth Landers and senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta -- both of whom attended the press conference -- seeking clarification, but have yet to receive a response.
