"Breitbart claims he did not splice the video, and that he obtained it in the misleading, fragmentary form in which he published it. Coincidentally, Breitbart was the victim of the exact same trick earlier. Last year, Breitbart published video purporting to show a man dressed as a pimp soliciting help from Acorn. It turned out, the video was deceptively edited. He dressed as a pimp for the cameras, but wore conservative attire to meet with Acorn. In meeting with Acorn, he presented himself not as a pimp but as a law student trying to rescue his prostitute girlfriend from a pimp. Yet the narrative presented by Breitbart took hold from the outset. When pressed, he claimed here too that he was the victim of deceptive editing."

This is like the third or fourth time that manipulated/dishonest videos have been pushed by ole "Blackbart"....

At *this point-in-time* anyone who accepts ANY VIDEO he pushes out on face value, (without first verifying the source and checking for dishonest editing and other fraudulent set-ups), is simply a gullible idiot willing to be led around like a bull with a ring through his nose. :-)
