Explanation already occurred.
It was on Sean Hannity this evening.
Point was to show the NAACP applauding her racist story, which they did, before they knew the twist ending.
Perhaps Obama should explain why he fired her, Breitbart is in the clear.
I looked for anything here on FR about your comment and found nothing. I will now search the net for Hannity’s show commentary.
The only problem with this is that the audience already knew the “twist ending.” Immediately before the clip Breitbart released (and leading into the story Sherrod told in the Breitbart clip), Sherrod said:
“When I made that commitment I was making that commitment to black people and to black people only. But, you know, God will show you things and he’ll put things in your path so that you realize that the struggle is really about poor people.”
Watching the full clip, Breitbart’s post looks bad. If he had the full clip, his editing looks dishonest; if he didn’t, it raises the question of why he didn’t pursue the full video before posting. This is not Breitbart’s finest hour.
The point is also how some out there defend this but not spend this much time defending the Tea Party. Some of you are quicker to throw Andrew under the bus then the liberal media. I am sick of weak people on our side as much as the left.
Still not seeing anything on the web about today’s Hannity show. The Hannity website shows yesterday’s stuff. You got anything I can look at?
Good point.
Imagine if a person gave a speech at a Tea Party and said they would not work hard to help a black person and that the black person should deal with “one of their own”. If the Tea Party crowd reacted with applause to this line, would it really matter to the MSM what the rest of the speech was about? The point is the crowd at the NAACP showed their racism and now this woman is paying the price while all the MSM can do is yell “OUT OF CONTEXT!!! OUT OF CONTEXT!!!”
The problem with that is by the time she got to that part of the story they knew where she was going with it. Breitbart has misrepresented it completely.
