She's FOS. newsbusters.org It wasn't exactly a media-friendly question. CNN co-anchor Kiran Chetry asked Shirley Sherrod on Thursday's "American Morning" if she wanted another news outlet to be shut down entirely – Andrew Breitbart's website, to be exact. "Would you like [Breitbart's] site to be shut down?" Chetry asked Sherrod. Sherrod answered yes, "that would be a great thing." Are you like other supporters of the left that want to shut down all opposition media?

Isn't it interesting to see writers like Peggy Noonan accept everything Shirley Sherrod said in her story as the truth. Now, correct me if I am wrong, but that would mean she believes R.M. Gibson, who was accused of murdering her father, is guilty without a trial. I have no knowledge one way or the other what the truth is, but accepting her version as the truth and condemning a person some 70 years after an event, without one shred of evidence, besides family stories, is journalistic malpractice. I wonder how R.M. Gibson's family feels about being judged and convicted, and whether anyone in the media has bothered to interview one of their family members?
