Washington Post Defames Andrew Breitbart: Bearing false witness against the dead.
Pajamas Media ^ | 01/16/2014 | J. Christian Adams

Posted on 01/16/2014 7:07:39 AM PST by SeekAndFind

What is good for the goose isn’t good for the gander. Helena Andrews at the Washington Post has this reckless column about Andrew Breitbart and Shirley Sherrod.

In it, Andrews falsely states that Breitbart “published a doctored video” of Sherrod’s racist confession at an NAACP convention. In fact, Breitbart published all that had been given to him, including the portion of the video where Sherrod is redeemed by confessing that she should not have been making decisions on the basis of race. Breitbart also published the portion where Sherrod admits making adverse decisions toward a white farmer because of his race.

No matter to Andrews. Instead she presents a narrative as if Breitbart cut and pasted and deleted words such as “not” from a video. Claiming the video is “doctored” is patently false. But Breitbart isn’t around to sue Andrews and the Washington Post. The defamation lawsuits only go one way, with Sherrod as a plaintiff trying to enrich herself at the expense of Andrew Breitbart’s widow and children.

May God have MERCY on the staff of the Washington Post. That is all I am going to say.

Come from the “Macaca Moment” Post, the irony is burning.

The swine did the same thing with William Casey & Lee Atwater.

The left are absolute scum, every one of them.

The RAT/Media complex makes up their own facts and repeats them relentlessly until they become “common knowledge”.

The future will not be kind to these sociopathic sharks. Neither will eternity, for that matter.

Ah, yes—Helena Andrews. Author of “Bitch is the New Black”. You CAN’T make this stuff up.

Who is *really* paying these trulls and trolls? I don’t believe it comes from the income the publisher generates. Could it be that all the billionaires get together and keep these “pundits” like a stable of breeding dogs?

Just a reminder Helena: Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. Dead or alive.

Glenn Beck did not help matters, either.

I don’t read the Washington Post for obvious reasons!
