Busted! Breitbart & Tealiban Using Post-Racial Epithet Tape Footage To Say "It Didn't Happen"
And busted by Yahoo, of all places:

"Breitbart posted two columns on his Web site saying the claims were fabricated. Both led with a 48-second YouTube video showing Lewis, Carson, other Congressional Black Caucus members and staffers leaving the Capitol. Some of the group were videotaping the booing crowd.

"Breitbart asked why the epithet was not captured by the black lawmakers' cameras, and why nobody reacted as if they had heard the slur. He also questioned whether the epithets could have been shouted by liberals planted in the crowd.

"But the 48-second video was shot as the group was leaving the Capitol — at least one hour after Lewis, D-Ga., and Carson walked to the Capitol, which is when they said the slurs were used.

"Questioned about using a video on his Web site from the wrong moment, Breitbart stood by his claim that the lawmakers were lying.

"I'm not saying the video was conclusive proof," he said."

4. I'd like to try hitting him in the face with some real news
I'll use the NBC evening news with an old 36 inch SONY Trinitron.

After a few shots you can ask him if that was real news? I'd like to know what he says.

3. Once again, they have to lie to make us look bad. There should be an entire forum for this.
