Sherrod To Sue Breitbart

August 2, 2010 | ISSUE 46•31

Shirley Sherrod, the former U.S. Department of Agriculture employee who lost her job because a heavily edited video posted online made her look like a racist, plans on suing blogger Andrew Breitbart for posting it. What do you think?

Litigiousness often goes hand in hand with unrepentant racism.

Justin Bell
Systems Analyst
I'm always scared of people taking my words out of context. That's why I make sure never to say the words 'I am a racist.' Oh wait, crap."

Lynda Cross
Radial Arm-Saw Operator
Suing people who edit online videos unfairly isn't going to solve the problem. Unfairly editing an online video in direct retaliation is going to solve the problem."
