Here is video of Fox News' Megyn Kelly talking with Andrew Breitbart this morning about the ACORN Scandal, and the way the media has covered it.
Breitbart hammered CNN for their coverage of the ACORN Scandal, pointing out how they have repeatedly allowed themselves to be a conduit for the ACORN line.
Breitbart said they rolled the videos out like they did in order to set "traps" for ACORN and the Mainstream Media.
Breitbart said ACORN's claim James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles were kicked out of numerous ACORN offices is "false." In fact, he said "there are more videos to come," including videos from some of the offices ACORN claimed they were kicked out of!
He said they have offered for O'Keefe and Giles to go on CNN for interviews if CNN would run the video. . . (VIDEO)

Spot on analysis.
The Monica Media figured it was a freakish, one-time incident with nothing more to follow and ignored the story or dismissed it as a prank, not to be reported but ridiculed if it was ever brought up.
And now with more and more videos being released, they can only sit at the station denying there was ever a train there, all the while trying to cover the tracks.
Stuck between the rock of reality of a real scandal and the hard place of looking stupid by excluding any coverage of it, they have chosen to remain stuck on stupid.
After all, it worked so well for Dan Rather.
And more and more people will be looking to FOX for the real news.
The only ACORN coverage that CNN will do is when James and Hannah accepts to have a interview with CNN.
I've said it on other threads this slow release of the vids is a Master Stroke in tactics.
You keep the water churning and you force the opponent to react and as such you destroy all credibility of the opponent.
Example: After first video: ACORN responds: "Oh its just one office out of thousands and they tried this other places and it didn't work..."
Then NEW vids surface and prove them wrong.
Several tacks are tried by ACORN all or destroyed by further release of Videos.
Other tacks tried:
ACORN sez: "They only chose offices where poor black people work." Next Video released is of a white woman who claims she killed her husband and tries to help the Pimp and Hooker to set up a brothel with 13 year old illegal alien girls from San Salvador.
ACORN claims they knew that Hannah and James were undercover journalists and they just played along for laughs. A new Vid is released where a guy tells James he can help in getting the 13 year old illegal alien hookers in across the Mexican Border and when questioned by the authorities the guy claims he didn't really understand because English is his second language and he was just trying to help.
The slow release of these videos has the entire Democrat Party in a shambles right now and they are reeling from all the body blows being landed by two kids who spent less money on their undercover investigation than it took to erect one of those stupid highway signs that are supposed to show us how the stimulus money was spent.
You are right. THEY KNOW... and they're keeping a cover on the story...
...
Release the next video Sunday morning, pre-empt the Obama Sunday morning shows.
They can’t cover ACORN or Van Jones because it makes their man look bad and we can’t have that now can we?
Didn’t Juan Carlos mention 2 Cali DAs in that video ?
All the fringe media have left is to report on their president...24/7. They’ve backed themselves into a corner, doubling down on Obama since the campaign days (is the campaigning over yet?), and selling their collective souls to do it. I hope they continue to wither on the vine. Dummies don’t even know they’re dying!
A question not being asked by anyone is, if it was this easy to get ACORN to help with child sex slaves being imported into the US, then how many times have they helped set up such enterprises in the past? Shouldn’t a grand jury be talking to these ACORN people?
Lets just call her Big Bertha. Then we can just put a head cover on her and bag her.
YES! I love Beck and Rush and Hannity and Levin and all the other's but dear God why don't they ask this obvious question.
They did the same thing on the Wilson "you Lie" incident.
They seem to never link the point that YES, Wilson was wrong BUT the President DID LIE and HE DID SO MULTIPLE TIMES IN THAT SPEECH!
Rick Sanchez/CNN interviewed the Bertha women/ACORN yesterday. He ended his segment stating, “where is this conservative filmmaker getting his money and why won’t they release the unedited tapes”. I spit out my coffee. The move to release these tapes one at a time was brilliant. The media has been silent because they can’t spin it if more tapes are coming out - they don’t want to look foolish. But they’re too late.
I love Andrew Breitbart. When he first started up his website I sent him and email complimenting him on the work he was doing and he actually took the time to write back and thank me.
Yep, I agree. The way they’re rolling this out is masterful. The press is used to these types of “conservative espose’” pieces being a one-hit wonder, and they know that if the press doesn’t follow through, it usually sinks out of the headlines in a couple days.
Not so when the Hannah & James Show are releasing a stead stream of these this.
After another week of this, the DNC & press will be so shell-shocked, they’re going to do something really desperate and probably stupid.
The fact that Breitbart was the only outfit they could trust with says a lot about our media. They have to shine a light on the quashed ACORN story from the election too.
Yes, some Democrats still have morals. They will need to leave the Democrat party to keep them.
