Outdated and applies to a newspaper. In 1913 they didn't edit film as widely as they do now.

Edit now means to alter not excerpt.

The left is trying to accuse Breitbart of editing/altering the clip. Being precise in language by stating it was an excerpt DOES matter. The EXCERPT that he posted included Saint Shirley's "mea culpa" which the NAACP did NOT applaud as they had her racism.

The press is planting the idea that this was always about Sherrod and that he doctored the tape. It was not.

Good to see someone else pointing this out. James Rosen was on the factor with Bill O’Reilly and mentioned this same point.

One that is not getting fair coverage by any news outlet....

Whether the video was edited or excerpted, it revealed the racism of the NAACP audience. There is no way one could mistake the overwhelming evidence of racism. I believe Breitbart wanted to reveal black racism against whites that is the true picture of the NAACP, an organization that is trying to tie racism to the Tea Party movement.

Sherrod was only the catalyst and not the main subject. Sherrod was throwing out comments that not only triggered racist reactions against whites, but it also revealed an acceptance of Marxism where wealth is redistributed. This paints a revealing picture of the NAACP!

I see the State Owned Media has done its best to muddy the waters with the focus on Sherrod. This is an effort to shift focus away from the real culprit, the NAACP. And Sherrod, who has acted to promote the media’s effort to redeem her, has dug herself in deeper with revelations about her husband’s racism and now their business dealings.
