Fox Fictional News and Not So Breitbart were busted on their attempts to slime Shirley Sherrod with doctored tape and scummy comments. I realize that Breitbart lives on lies and Fox Even More Fictional Now News promotes him, but even the braindead folks who watch that network now have to realize that they fake the news, they don't report it. This is much worse than the CBS story on Bush's Air National Guard record.

Sadly, among the braindead who believed Fox are numbered the NAACP, who condemned Sherrod without seeing all the evidence, and The Dept. of Agriculture (and probably The President), who fired her without viewing the enitire tape or listening to her side of the story, which turned out to be the ONLY side. The rest were Fox and Breitbart lies and tape doctoring.

How could the NAACP and USDA believe Fox and Breitbart, when any casual reader or tv watcher knows these are not credible sources?

Fox should be very proud. It snookered America for several hours before their lies became apparent. Of course, they do that every day, so it's no big deal for them.
