Lawsuit Over Video

Andrew Breitbart, the owner of several conservative Web sites, was
served at the (CPAC)conference on Saturday with a lawsuit filed by
Shirley Sherrod, the former Agriculture Department employee who lost her
job last year over a video that Mr. Brietbart posted at his site
biggovernment.com.

The video was selectively edited so that it appeared Ms. Sherrod was
confessing she had discriminated against a farmer because he was white.
In the suit, which was filed in Washington on Friday, Ms. Sherrod says
the video has damaged her reputation and prevented her from continuing
her work.

Mr. Breitbart said in a statement that he “categorically rejects the
transparent effort to chill his constitutionally protected free speech.”

Just wait until discovery. It will be very interesting When Ms.
Sherrod?s co-workers, business associates, friends and acquaintances are
all called in to be deposed.

Bat**** Breitbart took an existing video, which is available, and edited
to make Ms. Sherrod look like a racist. The altered video is also
available. All Ms. Sherrod has to do is provide evidence the alterations
were made under Breitbart's direction. Not difficult.

Breitbart is the racist. Naturally, you support him.

The suit was filed in Washington, D.C.

From what I heard immediately after the Breitbart "exposé,"
"co-workers, business associates, friends and acquaintances" were on
her side.

If they stick to their original story, as I heard it, Breitbart will
be convicted of yelling, "Fire!" in a crowded theatre.... and his
right of free speech defense won't hold water....


All you need is someone with a conscious and the rest of them are up on
a threat of a perjury charge. How many of your co-workers are you
willing to become a convicted felon for.

Oh, please. Breitbart is a scumbag. It's telling that you are sticking
up for him.

This really isn't an example of yelling "Fire" but of Libel. If his
editing did change the tone or meaning of her comments he probably will
be found guilty of Libel, and she would be compensated for all of her
damages and pain and suffering.

As you suggested, from what I read at the time, it looks like she has
one hell of a case.

You don?t have to like him and I am not trying to make you like him.
But, racism is a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural issue.
