I&#8217;m not getting into it now because at this point there is nothing substantive to report. There are only salacious accusations with no proof whatsoever.<\/p>\n<p>What I will get into is the fact that Andrew Breitbart, the notoriously dishonest purveyor of right-wing lies and propaganda who has been caught disseminating slanderous videos that were proven to be faked, has now expanded his field into porn and the yellowest of journalism. Here is a screen capture of the top of his BigGovernment web site:<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/Pix\/Caps\/biggovernment-weiner.jpg\"\/><\/center><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p>Note that <strong>every single story<\/strong> is on one subject &#8211; the alleged Weiner controversy that Breitbart himself invented. (Well, there is one exception &#8211; an ad for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=4460\" target=\"_blank\">Breitbart&#8217;s thoroughly dishonest book<\/a>). Apparently Breitbart considers this non-story more important than any other news story on the planet. There is literally no other story worthy of covering than this one. Not the presidential campaign. Not the congressional vote on raising the debt ceiling. Not the tornadoes in the Mid-West. Not the War on Terror. Nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Breitbart&#8217;s desperation to hoist a fake scandal on his dimwitted readers is palpable. Seriously &#8211; EVERY SINGLE HEADLINE! It exposes Breitbart as obsessed with advancing his slander. And to make matters worse, Breitbart went on CNN this morning (shame on CNN) and talked about <em>&#8220;relationships that Congressman Weiner has been having with women, young women&#8230;&#8221;<\/em> That despicable quote was wholly unsupported by even the flimsiest of facts. Breitbart even tried to qualify it later, after he had already set it loose into the mediasphere. He knows very well that that&#8217;s all it takes to set ignorant tongues wagging, and that was his intention. His whole existence is reliant on the slobbering imbeciles who live for dirt on their liberal adversaries and don&#8217;t care if it&#8217;s real or manufactured.<\/p>\n<p>The press has to recognize that Breitbart has zero credibility. How many incidents have to arise where he is proven to have fabricated videos, documents, and testimony, before the media stops treating him as if he were their peer? It&#8217;s just embarrassing to see them sully themselves by cozying up to this dirtbag. It has got to stop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Committed news junkies this morning are following a ludicrous story about New York Congressman Anthony Weiner.
