Beck is well known for posting distorted, altered, and flat out lies in attempts to spread his radical right wing propaganda.
This time again we see the lies and distortions spread by him, and the useful teabagger/GOP idiots showing their true colors of being filled with hatred and violence.

"An African-American Congresswoman from New York was forced to call the police on Thursday after she says an edited video posted on Glenn Beck’s website incited threats of violence against her."

“That clip that was originally on the Prospect Heights Democrats for Reform site was edited and was posted up on TheBlaze.com, and that of course is Glenn Beck’s website,” she continued. “That was edited down and what people were taking away from it was that the congresswoman was saying that all tea party members are crazy and all tea party individuals show the ugly side of the United States.”

"The video posted on Beck’s website had first been edited and published by Andrew Breitbart’s Breitbart.com.
Former Agriculture Department employee Shirley Sherrod sued Breitbart last year after another one of his websites published a selectively edited clip that led to her firing."

It sure sounds like the Sherrod incident all over again from the right wing propaganda machine,..

Black Congresswoman threatened after Beck website posts edited video | The Raw Story
Where was the threatened part in all that? Who did the threatening? Hundreds of thousands of Tea Party people outside her office trying to intimidate them. Mercy me, you people didn't want to think that there was even 100 thousand of them at Beck's two, meetings in DC and hundreds of thousands of them showed up for that. Maybe we should question her especially since I got to see that part in two of the videos you supplied.

All she talked about in the middle video was immigration and getting to vote yes on the Dream Act? How about the fact that she just can't understand why so many of us don't want illegal aliens to be amnestied? I think that you need to watch those videos and see what is said in them, yourself.

Unless Media Matters does a video summary on it, don't count on him watching the actual footage again

Media Matters is the Democrat party, how does that get involved here again?

Partisan libs won't watch a video in its full context and arrive at a logical conclusion by themselves, they need to wait for MM to give them their opinion

Raw Story did a pretty good job of doing what you say in this thing.

I agree 110% with that. Bringing up that old tired,worn out routine about the
"Sherrod lawsuite" is also just another big straw man argument.

What's with the extreme right's obsession with media matters? When's the last time you saw anyone post a link to their site on this forum?
It looks like many are drunk off the Beckster's kool-aid.

In her search for 'deeper' pockets, she (and the media, and probably the justice department) have abandoned the search for the perpetrator of the 'alleged' threat to pursue someone who wasn't involved in any remote way with said 'threat' to her.

Awwwww, poor congresswoman. Can't stand the heat, get out of the public spotlight and shut the hell up.

She said it and it was in context.

Somebody call a bambilance!
