As was the case with most of the corrupt mainstream media last week, if you were watching MSNBC you’d never know that the now-famous Shirley Sherrod video posted by Andrew Breitbart on BigGovernment.com included her moment of redemption. But that’s because MSNBC is a den of left-wing propagandists who have sworn to tell no truth that stands in the way of their agenda.

At its center, is a man paid a salary by Mr. Breitbart to recount all his adventures, who might be offered a way out of years in jail if he turns on say, some hypothetical person who paid him.

I suppose NBC News thinks they are in the clear if they throw that little “Comment” graphic up in the corner of their screen, but those words seem rather irresponsible even for an editorial opinion, don’t they? (more…)
