Andrew Breitbart, he of the mendaciously doctored video that got Shirley Sherrod shitcanned, is not apologizing for his role in the creating the deception that Sherrod is a racist. Instead, he's doubling-down on the assault on her character, now suggesting she may be lying:You tell me as a reporter how CNN put on a person today who purported to be the farmer's wife? What did you do to find out whether or not that was the actual farmer's wife? I mean, if you're going to accuse me of a falsehood, tell me where you've confirmed that had this incident happened 24 years ago. [...]Just...wow.
You're going off of her word that the farmer's wife [who has come to her defense] is the farmer's wife [who she referenced in the story]?
[H/T to Spudsy.]
