WSJ's Peggy Noonan: Sherrod was "smeared by right-wing media"; victim of "high-tech lynching"

July 26, 2010 9:14 am ET by Eric Boehlert

Ouch.

Noonan also goes on to demolish the right-wing talking point that Shirley Sherrod's entire NAACP speech confirmed she had problems with race and vindicated Andrew Breitbart's attempt to go after her. Noonan says that Sherrod's speech about grace and redemption should actually be taught in American classrooms:

This September, when school begins, we should make the speech required viewing in the nation's high schools. It packs quite a lesson within quite a story.


I'm sure it's just a matter of time before Breitbart's minions at his websites label Noonan a racist. Or something. Because that's how they respond to bouts of necessary truth telling.
