He's full of it. It's about payback to the NAACP for calling out the racism within the Tea Party movement. The NAACP hit a nerve.
He does not give a crap about Sherrod.

Well whoop-dee fucking doo for you Mr. Breitbart, I wonder if Mr. McCarthy ever felt sorry for all the people he black listed....

I wont feel sorry for Breitbart when he and his organization are sued by Sherrod for his smear-merchant campaign.
His words now are all an attempt to spin away from the mess he created.

Right, he's 'sorry'. This is like one of those greeting cards at someecards- "Sorry I gave you herpes", "Sorry you're an asshole" .

No way: you're assuming the guy has shame or a conscience; he has neither.
All Breitblart cares about is keeping the story going. She can't possibly sue him either-- you know perfectly well what someone like him would do that. It would be an excuse for him to air these charges over, and over, and over.
It doesn't have to be true, all that matters is that is it repeated enough times. THAT is breitbart's only credo.
Well, that and self-promotion. Look at his twitter meltdowns (too many to list)-- so long as people are talking about him and to him, he believes he is winning.

Amazing they can still scream about "librul thugs" and "lamestream media bias" while doing exactly everything they accuse the other side of.
I think John Stewart made up a name for this condition where you have the balls to accuse everybody else of what you do all the time.
The cognitive dissonance is amazing.

Breitbart won't suffer any consequences from this incident. If anything, it's launching him into the national spotlight and validating his existence as a boil on the ass of humanity. Which, I dare say, was his intent all along.

He is "sorry" for her for the same reason that Glenn Beck "defended" her: it is a chance to dig at Obama and the NAACP.
But the media are doing the right thing by highlighting the role this little dog's pizzle played in this fiasco.
The USDA and the White House figure very low on the scale of culpability, even if theya re the ones who did the dirty work of asking her to resign.

It sorta blows up in Breitbart's face that the NAACP reacted so quickly to Sherrod. He intended that the NAACP would resist firing her and that he'd get a chance to keep up the return fire on them. But no, Jealous rolled quickly.
Jealous' quick (erroneous) response, in the big picture of things, was probably the worst thing that could have happened to Breitbart, and Sherrod for that matter. However, it's turned out much differently than he anticipated.

And it gave them a viable excuse and a comeback: "Yes, we overreacted, but we overreacted because of our zero-tolerance policy towards racism and racists."
Which will contrast nicely to the was that the Tea Party deals with the racists (racists? what racists?) in its midst

By posting the link like you did, you illustrated EXACTLY Krugman's point:
But whaddya know, the scandal was fake. The clips were taken completely out of context. It was basically as if I said, “Some people say that violence is always the answer; they’re wrong”, Fox ran with the story “Krugman says violence is always the answer”, and the Times fired me.

The lesson here is don't take a video clip put out by an ideological partisan site as gospel. It's something I would have expected everyone to already know but after what happened to Ms. Sherrod I guess not....

Andy is "sorry," as in a sorry sack of shit who should be tarred, feathered, and run out on a rail. The man truly is the modern living embodiment of yellow journalism, the lying, scheming, empty-headed approach to "news" that cares not for whose lives it scars or destroys, but simply for how it helps a select portion of the population.
A pox upon him and all who follow him.

Ms Sherrod was a complete unknown, so yes her remarks taken out of context had to be sussed out.
Breitbart...he is a well known conservative activist, tea party hack who has proven over and over that he is willing to lie. He no longer gets the benefit of the doubt from me.
Besides, I saw the clip when it aired. Nothing new to add.

Fox played this brilliantly too. First they ran the clip uncritically, over and over Monday evening, calling Sherrod a racist and demanding she resign (O'Reilly). They also put it up at FoxNews.com. Fox & Friends piled on the next morning (along with Morning Joe over at MSNBC). By the afternoon the story had turned enough on the other networks the Fox reversed course with Beck denouncing the White House's "political assassination" of Sherrod and Krauthammer calling for her to be reinstated after criticizing the White House's rush to judgment. Bret Baier even responded to the NAACP's retraction by pretending Fox hadn't covered the story prior to the NAACP's first statement supporting Vilsack. O'Reilly took the bizarre alternate course of calling out the major networks for not covering the resignation (even though every last one of them devoted a segment to the story that same night).

By this point, you'd think all this reason enough for our government to stop paying any attention whatsoever to Faux News and treat them with the same disdain one does the National Enquirer or the former Weekly World News. Or, at the very least, take any "news" they have to offer with a massive grain of salt.

Breitbart at CNN: Nevermind what the video shows and what the "alleged" farmer's wife says, Sherrod is a racist now, the NAACP tolerates black racism, and people have to prove me wrong even though my evidence has been debunked.
Breitbart a while later (TPM video): Oh, the lamestream media really screwed this poor Sherrod woman up and I sympathize with her. To think that they dared call her a racist and made her loose her job, when she clearly underwent a transforming experience into a post-racial self. Just like me! I'm not a racist! The NAACP and the Obama administration are racist. And I have this video to prove it... oh, wait. Never mind.
