What? No mainstream media covering this? Shocking!

My point is... FOX is as guilty as MSNBC, or CNN, or ABC, or NBC, or CBS... They all covered it as a leading story, when in fact it was probably an intentionally cynical jab by Breitbart, using this out of context type attack, and everyone fell for it. Maybe Fox is a little more guilty, since they were the ones going "AHA!, Gotcha!". They were also the ones eating crow, and apologizing for their error.

Sure - although the apology was necessary to minimize damage, and pivot to their new talking point, "how dare the administration fire this woman without context."

But I don't see this as primarily a Fox issue. This is Breitbart's baby, and he bears the lion's share of the blame. Fox just spun it like they spin everything - into whatever would be maximally bad for the administration.

We need to have an open dialog on race, one which isn't divisive.

Wouldn't it be nice. But I'd put good money that even agreeing on what the issues are, let alone solving them, would be divisive enough to shatter the whole process.
