If You Tell A Lie Often Enough . . . You Become Breitbart


When we started seeing these around town, and we wondered what they were about. Click the jump to find out

So we googled 'Breitbart' and according to what we found on the internet, it turns out that its about Andrew Breitbart is purveyor of Right wing sites like BigGovernment and BigJournalism. Apparently, he loves to smear groups and individuals that might make their larger cause or associates look bad. Breitbart has used manipulated videos to gin up outrage to take down ACORN and Shirley Sherrod. His efforts at passing himself off as a mainstream commentator on ABC and Huffington Post were beaten back with a torrent of criticism by groups like Color if Change because of his record of fabricated attacks targeting poor minorities.

The original source seems to be baseed on a quote from from Lenin that says: "A lie repeated often enough becomes true."

That's what Breitbart hopes to do. Apparently, some won't let him.
