Should Andrew Breitbart get a medal?

September 1st, 2010

In one fell swoop, Breitbart exposed rampant racism in the NAACP when he showed a film clip of NAACP racists laughing and cheering as Shirley Sherrod told her tale of ‘sticking it to whitey’, while simultaneously exposing Obama as a knee-jerk reactionary. Obama was so intent on shifting the focus off of NAACP racism that he threw Sherrod under the bus before hearing her side.
Now the White house is throwing the Agriculture Secretary under the bus too by lying that he fired her on his own. Sherrod specifically stated several times that it was "The White House who told me to pull over my car and resign immediately".

P.S. How can the left blame Fox for any of this? Obama fired Sherrod at least 4 hours BEFORE Fox ever reported on the story!

Fox News/Breitbart fans, please justify this?

August 23rd, 2010

About this Sherrod thing.

Ok, there are a lot of different angles to this story, the NAACP, Obama’s response, the speech itself. But there is one angle which I feel has been painfully under reported. Andrew Breitbart is an influential Internet reporter, and in this case, perhaps others, he didn’t bother to check his sources. I’ve never taken a journalism class in my life and I think that’s pathetic. It’s like a doctor not washing his hands before surgery. It’s an embarrassment to journalism ethics.

And yet Fox only mentions this in passing, and his only appearance on Fox was on Hannity! HANNITY. For God’s sake, if he showed up on O’Reily he would have gotten drilled to the wall on this issue, but he picked the one host who would look past his complete and utter failure as a journalist. You can see it all in a video entitled "Andrew Breitbart Defends Sherrod story" It’s found right next to the video called "NAACP Race Card Fraud"

Now I’ve heard the reason that Brietbart didn’t have the time. But how could he not have the time to fact check a video that is years old? That makes no sense to me. Nor can I understand why a network that prides itself on being fair and balanced, and according to O’Reily is as a result increasing viewership completely ignore this angel to the Sherrod story. Could somebody explain this to me.

Do you agree with this woman that FOX and the Tea Party are scaring the Obama Administration?

August 16th, 2010

An employee of the USDA resigned after conservative media activist Andrew Breitbart posted a recent video of her speaking and Fox News picked it up. She told CNN that she tried to explain to USDA officials that the incident was in the past, but said "for some reason, the stuff Fox and the Tea Party does is scaring the Administration."

In the video she says 24 years ago she didn’t use the "full force" of her abilities to help a farmer avoid foreclosure because he was white. She was torn over helping him because so many black farmers were also struggling. She was working for a nonprofit, not the USDA and told the story on the video to illustrate how she has since realized that everything is not about race but "about those who have versus those who do not have." She says she later became friends with the farmer and his wife.

Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack said "There is zero tolerance for discrimination at USDA. We have been working hard through the past 18 months to reverse the checkered civil rights history at the department and take the issue of fairness and equality very seriously. Sherrod told CNN "This was 24 years ago, and I’m telling a story to try to unite people."

I need other opinions on this. Is this woman correct in saying the Administration is caving into pressure from conservative groups? She admits to making a mistake and is even friends with the farmer and his wife and yet the Secretary of Agriculture who’s been working hard for a whole whopping 18 months to reverse the checkered civil rights history at the department fires this woman for saying in a video that she made a decision in the past based on race and it was wrong.

Do you feel that the Tea Party may be involved in using this video to deflect attention from the racism charges they’re getting by the NAACP and other groups? She’s the only one that mentions the Tea Party specifically so I honestly don’t know if they are actually involved in this or not. Thanks for all opinions.
She wasn’t fired, she resigned. Sorry about that.

Should Andrew Brightbart hold 99.9% of the blame on the Sherrod scandal since he has a history of lying?

August 10th, 2010

It is obvious now that the facts are out that he intentionally mislead everyone. Fox News is also to blame for running such garbage. The Whitehouse did what anyone (anyone with morals that is) would do if they were made aware of a racist in their midst. The NAACP has apologized will Brightbart and Fox now do the same? Brightbarts excuse was to say the very least totally unbelievable.
With the vast majority of Yahoo Cons being racists I expect these answers?
