Ron DeSantis, saying that he explained everything to the show before the aired the segment in an interview that lasted \u201cprobably over 45 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kerner was asked to respond to the following statement from \u201c60 Minutes\u201d in their attempt to explain the deceptive editing:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"7\">\n<p><em>As we always do for clarity, 60 MINUTES used the portion of the Governor\u2019s over 2-minute response that directly addressed the question from the correspondent.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI participated in speaking with the producer of \u201960 Minutes\u2019 for probably over 45 minutes and gave very direct facts about the governor\u2019s meeting that I had with him here in my office a few months ago,\u201d Kerner said. \u201cAnd when I watched the piece, I was just taken taken aback really that none of my comments, none of my perspective was included, and certainly the facts bear out the truth that this was a decision that I made, that county administration made, and really has been a wonderful addition to our overall plan here in Palm Beach County.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kerner said that he had met with DeSantis multiple times throughout the pandemic and they had worked well together. He also said the decision to work with Publix was a \u201cno brainer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd really, as a county mayor of of one of the largest counties in the nation, if we have a senior population that per capita outranks every other county in the state, so to have 67, ready-to-go vertically integrated points of distribution with 20,000 vaccines per week is a no brainer,\u201d Kerner said. \u201cAnd certainly Commissioner McKinley, my colleague on the board, eventually pointed out that there were some loopholes and gaps in the coverage of Publix. And we immediately rectified that, and quite frankly, we lead the state, all three major counties, by a longshot in terms of vaccinations provided to seniors 65 and over.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"10.699438202247\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Democrat &amp; County Mayor <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DavidMKerner?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DavidMKerner<\/a> joins <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DanaPerino?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DanaPerino<\/a> to discuss how 60 Minutes intentionally ignored facts he provided that debunked narrative about Publix vaccine distribution:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I watched the piece, I was taken aback really that\u2026 none of my perspective was included.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pZFtHaJmZx\">pic.twitter.com\/pZFtHaJmZx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Joanna Rodriguez (@joannamrod) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joannamrod\/status\/1379435369884643330?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 6, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Kerner said that he had to reach out to \u201c60 Minutes\u201d after they aired the deceptive segment because it was a \u201csurreal experience\u201d seeing how the show left out critical information that he gave them during his interview with them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did issue a pretty scathing statement to CBS and \u201960 Minutes\u2019 on my own letterhead as the county mayor, not on behalf of the County, but I felt that it was important to have the truth out in the public sphere,\u201d he added. \u201cSo for me, I left this experience really disheartened with \u201960 Minutes\u2019 and still don\u2019t have an explanation as to why \u2026 my comments were never included.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his statement slamming \u201c60 Minutes,\u201d Kerner <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/fl-democratic-mayor-60-minutes-ran-intentionally-false-report-on-desantis-omitted-info-that-kneecaps-their-narrative\">said<\/a> that the show should \u201cbe ashamed\u201d because they left out the key information he gave them \u201cbecause it kneecaps their narrative.\u201d Kerner <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/desantis-hits-cbs-after-they-claim-deceptive-editing-was-for-clarity-heres-what-they-didnt-tell-you\">said<\/a> the segment &nbsp;\u201cwas not just based on bad information \u2013 it was intentionally false.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"11.94459833795\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Democrat Mayor on diminishing trust in media after 60 Minutes\u2019 botched report on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RonDeSantisFL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RonDeSantisFL<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was the one that sat in the meeting, I was the one that asked for Publix\u2019s assistance in this County &amp; to not have that perspective included, it was sort of a surreal experience.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FF0ZSvdPz5\">pic.twitter.com\/FF0ZSvdPz5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Joanna Rodriguez (@joannamrod) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joannamrod\/status\/1379440327719854082?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 6, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
