The Discrediting Of Breitbart: Why Was He Ever Taken Seriously?
you’ll never guess who emerged as the villains of the story in this second-day conservative react. Not Andrew Breitbart, the distributor of a falsified tape. No, the villains were President Obama and the NAACP for believing Breitbart's falsehood. Breitbart went almost universally unmentioned.
Of course the irony of the right wing noise machine decrying the Obama Administration and the NAACP treating Breitbart seriously is rich (but who would expect otherwise? Their dishonesty has been manifest forever.) But the question remains, and not only for the Obama Administration and the NAACP - the question is for everyone - who would take Breitbart (and Drudge and Fox) seriously? They are all dishonest hacks. I certainly hope this ends Breitbart's reign of terror, but it never should have needed this event to discredit Breitbaert. He has always been a discredited figure.
Speaking for me only
