Now this is some crazy movement. She went from obscurity, to media darling, to media pariah all in the stretch of a week.
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.
I think they were afraid she would do more damage to their narrative with more extemporaneous charges of racism toward conservative boogy-men. She was the aggrieved party right up until she started to slander Breitbart with a charge that you could safely say that no one has had in 60+ years.
At least she could have said he wanted to bring back Jim Crow or something. I mean who other then some 100 year old white planter in the 1950s really wanted to actually bring back slavery? Now the media just wants her to disappear before she says something else outrageous.
