Shep Smith Rips Fox News & Obama Over Sherrod.

Shep Smith once again shames the rest of Fox News by going where they will never go.

He has the courage to identify Andrew Breitbart as the dishonest hack that he is.

We here at Studio B did not run the video and did not reference the story in any way for many reasons, among them: we didn’t know who shot it, we didn’t know when it was shot, we didn’t know the context of the statement, and because of the history of the videos on the site where it was posted, in short we do not and did not trust the source.

[...]

[The White House based its decision on] an edited videotape on a widely discredited website that has had inaccurate postings of videos in the past–edited to the point where the world was deceived. … What in the world has happened to our industry and the White House?

And, if Breitbart is seriously pretending that he is still a journalist, surely he would be duty bound to now reveal the name of the source who edited this video and misled him to this degree?

People need to pressure Breitbart to name who it was who edited this video and spread this lie.
