Huffington Post Forced to Issue Retraction, Apology After Falsely Accusing Andrew Breitbart of Doctoring Video - FoxNews.com
Just more proof that Huffpo is a piece of crap that only desperate left wing nut jobs bother with.
Arianna Huffingtons liberal-leaning Huffington Post was forced to write a retraction Tuesday after alleging that conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart doctored a video clip from a White House press briefing in order to make it look like CBS anchor Norah ODonnell was unhappy about the recent debt compromise during an exchange with White House press secretary Jay Carney...
A careful examination of the clip reveals that it was not doctored at all by Breitbart, but that the beginning of ODonnells quote was shrouded by ambient noise...
The story was ultimately removed from the website and an editors note was posted saying that, a viewing of the clip in question clearly shows that he did not. We regret the error, have removed the story, and apologize to Mr. Breitbart.
Some staffers at the website, who were unable to reveal their names for fear of retribution, told FOX411 that they werent surprised at the error.
The goal of the site is aggregation, not news generation. Were chasing traffic and there isnt always time to make sure that everything is accurate, one staffer admitted. "We're really just a factory for links."
Just more proof that Huffpo is a piece of crap that only desperate left wing nut jobs bother with.
