Naacp, Shirley Sherrod | featured news

The RNC is losing faith in blogger, Andrew Breitbart, of video editing fame (see: ACORN, NAACP). The RNC has cancelled a fundraiser with Breitbart, who falsely presented another heavily edited video, this time attempting to tag Shirley Sherrod of the NAACP as a racist.

Ousted Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod said Thursday she will sue a conservative blogger who posted an edited video of her making racially tinged remarks last week. Sherrod was forced to resign last week as director of rural development in Georgia after Andrew Breitbart posted the edited video online. In the full video, Sherrod, who is black, spoke to a local NAACP group about racial reconciliation and overcoming her initial reluctance to help a white farmer.

Shirley Sherrod was terminated after a conservative website showed edited video of her at an NAACP event apparently saying she would refuse to help a white farmer.
