Baloney. Breitbart deliberately edited that video - by not playing all the relevant parts - to deliberately change her meaning, and cost her her reputation and her job. I heard it. He lied to make Shirley Sherrod seem racist, on purpose, when her words revealed she was anything but.

Breitbart financed James O'Keefe, and his edited lies about ACORN, costing that organization it's existence and people their jobs.

You can try to justify Breitbart's deliberate lies and destruction of innocent people's lives for his political goals, but thanks, I'm not buying. His screaming drunkenly at the Occupy protesters pretty well outlines what he became in his profession at the end.

It has nothing to do with his politics, or "leftist sites", and everything to do with Breitbarts repeated public display of his lack of ethics and morals. He cost innocent bystanders their reputations and jobs just so he can make a splash on his media site. You can miss his contribution to the political scene. I sure don't. Good riddance.

And btw: George Zimmerman has given varying and different accounts to the police of what happened when he killed Trayvon Martin. That's called "lying", too.
