How did the Media Takeout Shirley Sherrod's Job?
Yes this is a play on words but it's not a joke. Media Takeout is one of the most popular websites filled with nonsense, while FOX News is the popular television media outlet that is filled with nonsense too. Both media sources can ruin the lives of innocent people, but FOX News furthers the political agenda of The Tea Party, and conservative media, but most importantly divides people and wreaks havoc in the country, all in the name of ratings.
The bottom line in all of this is: The White House caved in to pressure from FOX News. The NAACP got played by FOX News and has now retracted its original statement condemning comments made by a Shirley Sherrod, the former Agriculture Department official who resigned after a video clip surfaced of her discussing a white farmer. The NAACP has even gone back and deleted tweets on their Twitter site that supported Ms. Sherrod's firing eariler on Tuesday.
Also, how did Roland Martin let himself get played by FOX too? Roland you look foolish. You made a statement without investigating the speech clip first? Ms. Sherrod lets him have on CNN and says she can't listen to anymore of what Roland Martin has to say. Somebody needs to give her "her job" back! ...and Roland, you need to apologize to Shirley Sherrod.

"Wow. The Tea Party Has Black People Shook!"
"Shirley Sherrod is my hard-working grandmother.
She grew up in the South, worked hard to gain a senior position within a historic administration, and in a matter of days, is a living example of the stupidity of 24-hour news, out-of-context grainy YouTube clips (read: ACORN and Rev. Wright), and as one commenter put it, a victim of ‘reverse reverse discrimination’." ...Read more
