Storm Rages Over Ousted Black Ag Official Accused Of Racism

USA Today is one of the many outlets carrying this story, Storm Rages Over Ousted Black Ag Official Accused Of Racism. CNN has posted a fuller version of the section of her speech that is causing the controversy.

After having CBS News report on this story and after reading this article, I posted this comment on the USA Today site.

You mean she was Rev. Wrighted? How shocking that someone could actually mislead the public by editing videos to demonstrate the opposite of the point that the speaker was making.

If the NAACP could be snookered, is it possible that Barack Obama was snookered when even he denounced Rev. Wright? I took the time to look at many of the entire Rev. Wright videos and I can attest to the snookering of the public.

Also in the USA Today article was this statement from the person who stirred this all up:

Breitbart told CNN today that releasing the video was “not about Shirley Sherrod. … “This was about the NAACP attacking the Tea Party, and this is showing racism at an NAACP event,” he said. “I did not ask for Shirley Sherrod to be fired.” He also denied editing the video, which was posted on his BigGovernment site.

Perhaps he is unaware of the definition of editing. When you choose to use only some of the pieces of a work for publication, it is called editing.  That is what film editors, newspaper editors, and book editors do.

I coined the term being Rev. Wrighted based on what I know about that situation. I have an overview blog post Please Help Fight Propaganda that gives links to some of my other posts on Rev. Wright. I wrote a few more posts about the topic after that.  See Rev. Jeremiah Wright Speaks Again and Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola—Nature, Accident or Intentional?

You can also search this site for everything about Wright.  A few of them are about topics other than Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
