The Media Don't Want America to Understand Shirley Sherrod


It didn't take long for the MFM to understand that Shirley Sherrod is a loose cannon.  The narrative that the media and the rest of the Democrats has prepared was that Shirley was a sainted black woman who had overcome her racial prejudices.  She was supposed to be the victim of an unfair racist attack by the Right wing bomb thrower Andrew Breitbart. Since most people don’t go to original sources, like the video that Breitbart provided, or the longer video that the NAACP provided, the MFM has been able to get away with lying. The problem for the media is that Shirley refused to play her part. Every time she opened her mouth, she revealed herself as a racist, leftist bigot. She was the reincarnation of “Mother Sheehan” in blackface.

That was not going to allow the MFM to tell their story, so this Sunday, the woman who dominated the airwaves this last week, was not allowed to expose herself on the Sunday talk shows.

It’s going to be interesting to see if it’s possible for the MFM to carry the Shirley Sherrod tale while keeping her under wraps. Somehow, I doubt it. The Iron Curtain of media censorship is now too permeable.

Andrew Breitbart's BigGovernment has the story.

Earlier this week a handful of people in the blogosphere began to speculate Sherrod would pull off a “full Ginsburg,” or become only the thirteenth person to appear on all major Sunday talk-shows on the same day since the feat was first accomplished by William H. Ginsburg in 1998. However, this was before a clip of Sherrod suggesting Andrew Breitbart wants blacks “stuck back in the times of slavery” went viral. Sherrod also drew extensive criticism late in the week for blasting Fox News as racist.

Considering the Shirley Sherrod interview barrage that took place last Thursday, to not see Sherrod on television Sunday morning sends a clear signal the mainstream media no longer feels allowing the public to get to know the real Shirley Sherrod advances their agenda.
