Update: Andrew Breitbart appeared on Hannity this evening. From BigGovernment:
Andrew Breitbart appeared on the ‘Hannity’ show tonight to discuss the NAACP’s resolution condemning the Tea Party Movement as racist. The NAACP used the dubious claims of Rep. Andre Carson, that fifteen protestors yelled racial slurs at him fifteen times on March 20th prior to a vote on ObamaCare in Washington DC.
Breitbart conducted a search of all available video of the moment Rep. Carson described – as he and Rep. John Lewis “came down the steps at (the) Cannon” Office Building on their way to the Capitol.
This segment on ‘Hannity’ marks the very first time these videos, which show no evidence of anyone shouting racial slurs and which contradict every description Rep. Carson made of the scene, have been shown on national television.
Given that this false charge has become the basis for the nation’s oldest and most respected civil rights organization to label an entire political movement as racist, it will be instructive to see which other media outlets pick up the story as well.
For their convenience, we will be happy to make all of the the unedited videos available for them.
Following the allegations at the “Kill the Bill” rally Andrew Breitbart offered $100,000 to be donated to the United Negro College Fund for any video proof of the racial epithet. That money remains unclaimed, and no evidence has been offered to support the Congressmen’s accusations.
