Wow, fuck that guy so hard. How many displays of his dishonesty and general douchebaggery does the mainstream media need before they start treating him like the clown that he is?

Breitbart lies so often that the only real "news" would be an instance in which he unintentionally spoke the truth.

Brad, your comment about AP using the lie phrasing of "ACORN workers counseling actors posing as a pimp and prostitute..." is exactly WHY the "big lie" works so well in the Internet age.
The lie gets into the media (Thanks so very much NYT) and then into the ARCHIVES.
Lazy and badly educated "journalists" at AP then do a new story, using old archives for "research" and the lie is propagated again and again.
Eventually, it gets into the Texas school curriculum and becomes "common knowledge," just like the "accepted fact" that "Bush won the 2000 and 2004 elections."
Has anybody checked to see what the current Wikipedia write-up on Breitbart or ACORN is?

The breitbart wikipedia looks like a whitewash, mostly.

Isn't the burden of proof on the drama queen that cried "Racism!". Still waiting on that evidence.
Yesterday, Obama called me a honky, he now has to provide video evidence of himself not saying it. Until then he is GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY!!!!

Are you suggesting that a civil rights pioneer MADE UP that people yelled racial epithets at them, despite other multiple witnesses's stating the exact same things were yelled? Are you crazy? Do you actually believe that he would have ever had to "make up," that kind of awful stuff that has happened to him throughout his life at different points? Do you actually believe he would cheapen the past in such a way by crying "wolf" now? Show some respect. I think what happened is well established at this point, except for that moron breitbart.

It's pathetic that people will suspend reasoning when it's suits their partisan motives. Although this is merely a case of special pleading.
It's as if without the Zapruder film, JFK wasn't assassinated...
I visit Lake Michigan and grab a cup of water, there's no fish in the cup therefore there are no fish in Lake Michigan.
Of course, in Breitbart's case he actually took a cup of tap water and declared it from the Lake to use as evidence there are no fish in the Lake.

Huh?? Lake Michigan? Why are you drinking out of lake Michigan? As a self labeled Ecotard I can confidently advise against drinking from lake Michigan, it once gave me hemorrhoids that bled like squished orange pulp.
The accusation of racism was sort of like your filthy drink from lake Michigan analogy; however, thanks to Obama, you don't need evidence just accusation. Soon you won't even be allowed to think. They'll just accuse you of thinking.
I'm not lying, Obama called me a honky. Until someone can give me conclusive video evidence showing Obama not calling me a honky, then he is an unadulterated racist!
