Andrew Breitbart has given an interiew to Newsweek. I think it sounds about right.
Can you understand how this has been difficult for her to get caught up in that?
As difficult as it probably was for her, it’s been difficult for me as well, especially to hear her hurl an accusation of racism at me, when my motivation is absolutely pure and is driven by a desire for this country to move beyond its horrid racist past.But do you agree that the edited video took things out of context?
Well, yes. But I put up what I had. It granted a great portion of her redemptive tale, but not all of it. If I could do it all over again, I should have waited for the full video to get to me.So why not apologize for that?
I’d first like to speak to her in private and outside of the media circus.Do you regret how this all went down?
Look, there’s a lot of blame to go around on this story, and it’s very convenient to try to place it all on me when the Obama administration and the NAACP were also involved. I don’t think anybody looks particularly good in this thing.

Partially eating crow is a nice first step, and honestly didn’t think Andrew had it in him. Glad to eat a little crow myself re. that assumption.
Clearly Breitbart is aware that an apology in this (or any public) forum would be soon misrepresented. Good for him. His statements in this interview address the complaints competently and thoroughly without ceding ground on the false charges laid against him.
Here here Res! I agree. Sherrod has some of her own issues. None of the video of her very racist husband has been on this site but it is worth a net search. Makes me wonder how sincere she really is. You cannot be married to a man who says such evil for decades and not have that rub off….
You can if you’re a Liberal or a Dem. At least, that’s what the MSM believes.
“You cannot be married to a man who says such evil for decades and not have that rub off….”
I’ve said that for years about Mary Matalin.
That was the first thing that I thought of too, Outlaw.
