Wtg Liberal Media. Real classy.
What an honor it was to work for a man like Andrew Breitbart, a man so uncommonly decent that those who would seek to defame him in the hours directly after his death would only have complete and utter falsehoods to work with.
I'm looking at you, CNN.
Thursday, in private, we reached out to CNN with the request that they correct the record. Since they have made the choice to let their falsehoods stand, we are now publicly requesting CNN make a full retraction.
Just hours after his death, during two different segments, CNN's Suzanne Malveaux and Howard Kurtz epitomized everything Andrew Breitbart dedicated his life to fighting: the intentional furthering of completely false narratives; the attacking of people unable to defend themselves; and the repeating of that which isn't true until it "becomes" true.
This first clip with Malveaux aired Thursday morning at right around 11:25 ET. Please watch and listen closely:

Breitbart was the first to post the infamous Twitter photo of Congressman Anthony Weiner last year, in which the Congressman sent pictures of himself apparently in his underwear.
This is a small thing, but I think it's a revealing look into the mindset of CNN and the media in general. Anthony Weiner rates an "apparently." Even though there is photographic evidence of Weiner in his underwear, Malveaux throws a candy-coated "apparently" his way.
When it comes to Breitbart, though, there will be no such journalistic niceties. Just this complete and utter falsehood:
It was Breitbart who first posted portions of a speech [Shirley Sherrod] gave before the NAACP. Now, the online video was edited to make it appear as though Sherrod was making racist statements. She was quickly fired, but when the entire speech was made public it became clear she was telling a story of racial reconciliation.
Wrong...
