What does my reading it have to do with Andrew's lack of journalistic skills and ethics?

You call this journalism? Your two articles concerning the Palin book are more like a cross between trolling on a blog and a push poll. Did you even graduate high school journalism Andrew? You are truly an embarrassment to yourself.

He's constantly crying and shitting himself. But chin up Andy, that still leaves the Fox News Channel.

As for Andrew not so Breitbart, if we wanted to hear from shameless self-promoting mouth breathing lying thugs, there are Yahoo chat rooms for that type of discourse.

Strom was not a lifelong segregationist. He dropped it publicly when it became illegal. And you clearly have no comprehension of context, and could not have seen her speech in it's entirely, it shows no such thing that you have stated. Ah, an uneducated follower, the republican's favorite kind of voter.

And while it is true that American journalism died years ago, what Americans don't need are the maggots like Drudge, Breitbart and the collective newsroom of FNC, et al, living and feeding on it's corpse. It's referred to as a public trust for a reason, but these and many other "journalists" have abandoned both trust and reason. A healthy democracy depends on a well informed electorate and these aforementioned "journalists" are by their actions, domestic terrorists, enemies of the state and should be dealt with accordingly. Disinformation is moral bankruptcy at best and treason at worst. Let's enforce the laws we have in place to combat it. The moral backruptcy is in the promotion of edited footage, without a care for the context of the speech, even less for the context of the thought contained in the edited sound bite. Letting people "see for themselves", a truncated sound bite serves only the promoters nefarious motives. There is obviously a pattern of method and motive from Breitbart between this latest escapade and his previous clever dismemberment of facts and reality in his set up scam of ACORN and his involvement in the attempted bugging of a US Senator's office. Breitbart is either a criminal, or he's pimping criminals. Either way, he reeks of moral bankruptcy. Perhaps Breitbart should consider teaming up with Joe 'Gannon' Guckert. That might enhance his credibility.

Selective editing of any medium is journalistic malfeasance. Without the selective editing of Brown's speech, it shows no racism at the NAACP. You seriously need to learn the definition of context. " the parts of a discourse that surround a word or passage and can throw light on its meaning" In other words, the video surrounding the soundbites that Breitbart released. Breitbart should consider teaming up with Joe 'Gannon' Guckert. That might enhance his credibility.

The speech as a whole contained facts. That is what context is. If you posses the attention span, you should view her entire speech.
