Secret Emails Between Breitbart and Beck Revealed

Note: I found these emails on a secret thumb drive that was given to me around the same time that Laura Ingraham apparently got secret copies of the Obama Diaries. The emails below are as verifiable as Ms. Ingraham's book. -- Sally

Subject: they're the racists!

How dare those people at the NAACP call the Tea Party racist. The New Black Panther Party attack is clearly too ludicrous and won't stick. We have to find something to make clear to America that it's the NAACP and Obama who are really racist. Obviously!

That video you dug up of the black lady from big government showing how the Obamacrats discriminate against whites is amazing. I heart you. Take that, NAACP!

I should mention it was edited a bit. But trust me, the rest of the video isn't that important.

NAACP condemned Sherrod. Vilsack axed her. This is awesome! I bet Obama will be pissed when he finds out his administration fired a black person...

PS - I think on tomorrow's show, I'll suggest Obama make her czar of his anti-white agenda. Ha!

Subject: WTF?

The entire video is NOT not important. She was trying to say she learned to OVERCOME her racism. Shit! You're the total friggin' racist for manipulating the video --- and me. You hate black people AND white people! Especially white people! I feel oppressed.

From: [e-mail] Date: July 20, 2010 2:26 PM EDT To: [e-mail] Subject: Calm down

Not my bad. If the NAACP and Obama weren't so racist, they wouldn't have fired her. I mean, really, it's just a video. Don't these people pay attention to context. I'm the one who should feel oppressed!

You're right. They're total racists. Thank God America has us to expose their hate.

PS - You're coming to my rally in DC in August, right? I'm doing it on the anniversary of Dr. King's March on Washington. I think Dr. King would be honored.

To make them more "real" you need to NOT spell things correctly and STOP being logical.

The Beck Emails....what an inspired idea. Make it into a book and see it become an instant bestseller!

I can't believe anyone is taking this seriously! COMEDY is the name of the section. It was pretty freaking funny.

These email contents are just too perfect..........they seem to mention all we want to hear.......just a liitle to much wording to sound true..........don't trust this. Someone's trying to cover that these emails said it all! what they knew just too convenient as "secret"...............they're fake ............I wouldn't put it past Beck.

I think some of the comments show how quickly people will jump at the bit from the right or left if it disagrees or agrees with their world view...this isn't real. Just so everyone knows; it's satire...not very well done satire but satire never the less.

[Sally Kohn]

ouch on the "not very well done" bit, but thanks for pointing it out... it is posted under "comedy" after all...

The satire was amusing, instructive, and "ben trovato" (if only the public really could hear what these propagandists "really think" when off the airwaves).

Keep up the humorous "reporting."

Our democracy is at risk if we are constantly conned by videos cut and pasted to make "what is" perceived as "what is not" at the expense of innocent people for political gain. What should have been a day of accomplishment for the President was occluded by a disaster wrapped in a catastrophe driven by False News.

The "main stream" media feeding frenzy that followed went viral without fact checking and then fed on the story by reversing course and assuming the role of knight in shining armor. I think the whole story before & after was set up and written by Fox News, Produced by Fox News and provoked by Fox News. Behind the scenes Beck and Brieghtbart are laughing at the free press because their life's work is to score coups regardless of harm done to honest reporting.

What is the true nature of reality?

[voxpop88]

04:44 PM on 07/22/2010

The true nature of "political reality" is that most information about politics is incomplete, a-historical (provided without context), biased in the direction of extant power structures, and "true information" disregarded and suppressed (e.g., Jeff Greenfield said that Noam Chomsky was "from Neptune," when asked why Chomsky was ignored by his "news team").

Unless your comment was "Situationist," or "absurdist"?

Reasonable Americans everywhere need to turn off Fox news and the tea party wherever they rear their ugly, divisive, hateful heads. Be it at a workplace break-room, a hospital waiting room, your doctor’s office, the local gym, or McDonalds. Please let them know how you feel. You can write a comment on their website, talk to HR, send a letter or just speak up and stand up wherever you see this nonsense being propagated.

[Standondsideofreason]

Again, reasonable Americans everywhere need to stand up against FoxNews and people like Breitbart along with some elements of the tea party that want to tear this country apart. Fox news and their minions are going too far, this is nothing short of defamation of character and slander by a so called “fair and balanced” right wing fringe news organization, taking a right wing extremist bloggers words for the gospel. People are getting hurt, our country is already hurting, they are instigating a race war...Fox and these right wing conservative, hypocritical, unethical scoundrels need to be stopped and put in their place. They need to be held accountable for the outcome of the adulterated “news” stories they put out. People have already been hurt and many more will if this hateful, divisive and blatantly disturbing news channel is not stopped or at least held to the same standards as other news organizations. Fact checking before reporting is essential. The fact that they ran with a clip posted on a radical tea party ultra conservative website with a bone to pick with the NAACP should have automatically been a red flag. Shame on Fox and anyone else who knowingly went along with this piece of defamatory and crap. Breitbart and Fox News need to pay the heavy price of the consequences they inspire and provoke with their lies.

Several years ago, FOX was sued for making false news reports - lying. FOX's defense was that their "constitutional" right to free speech means they don't have to report facts. They can say anything they want. Amazingly, FOX won the case. So fact-checking is just not their responsibility. Besides, fact-checking can have an adverse effect on ratings.
