TPM Editor’s Blog

#DueDiligenceFail

Just so we’re all clear here: Andrew Breitbart admits he never saw the entire video of Shirley Sherrod’s speech, just the edited clips he was sent by a source.

Let that sink in for a bit.

Regardless of what the whole video turns out to show when we finally see it (and believe me, we’re working to get our hands on it), Breitbart never saw it.
